    Default Trump Praises Clinton In ’60 Minutes’ Interview

    Donald Trump has lavished praise on Hillary Clinton in his first television interview since the election, describing the woman he has vowed to throw into prison as "very strong and very smart" and noting her grace.

    Mr Trump has spent well over a year attacking "Crooked Hillary," suggesting she was on drugs, and suggesting she be assassinated yet in an interview on Friday, to be broadcast on Sunday, he said he was impressed by her decency.

    I disagree.

    Neither was he stepping back from repealing Obamacare.

    Nor, would I describe what Donald Trump said regarding Hillary as being "lavish praise". But clearly admission of the truth of the matter. She was a great competitor - very strong.

    He never suggested that Hillary be assassinated... this is nothing but MSM propaganda spin.

    On the contrary, he addressed the gun owners in America - suggesting that they have a strength to prevent Hillary Clinton from being able to appoint a liberal-leftwing oriented Supreme Court Justice that would put an end to the Second Amendment. They can stop her with their right to vote.

    I guess you can call that a suggestion for political assassination through the right to vote, if you want to. But its nothing more than that.

    His answers to these questions, he is being simply 'Presidential'.

    regards...

    Unfortunately, when one is in competition, different tactics are used, and once in a while, competitors go over their head and this happened in the US election as all the others before.

    Competition over, this command respect by the winner, positive response, and it should be that way!

    AH Goodman is still going thru the wiki leaks releases and in the latest one
    it tells how the Clintons encouraged Trump to run , hoping to disrupt the
    republicans, banking on if he did won they could defeat him. Also how they
    were paying actors/ativists to disrupt Trump rallies....

    trump HAD to say what he stated in public; he knows he has to keep the Clintons and Bushes as far away as he can with his statement but he appeases those who voted for Clinton; Trump is anything but "stoopid"- he knows how to play his cards- hell, he's a business man-

    As others have mentioned, the look on Trump's face and his body language after the 1.5 hr meeting with Obama was very ... "interesting". I would love to have been a fly on the wall in that meeting and privy to Trump's phone call with Clinton!

    It is like the world championship wrestling. Now the fight is over, they are in backstage and congratulate each other. RT has some good clips of words spoken before and after the elections. The diametrc opposites should be interpreted not as hypocracy, but as "it is merely a game".

    I take a somewhat different perspective on Trump’s “nice noises” about Hillary in his 60 Minutes interview, and see it as part of the ongoing takedown of the Clinton Foundation’s drug/money laundering/pedophilia/pay-for-play operation that is being conducted by elements of the intelligence community.

    It is still entirely possible that Hillary may be the first Secretary of State ever to be charged with treason, and that would be no small matter. She’s not off the hook yet.

    Here’s what I’m thinking:

    • Given Trump’s pal Giuliani’s apparent access to FBI and NYPD insider information, it is possible that Trump is now aware of the extent and depth of the files on the Clinton Foundation’s illegal operations. This material has yet to hit the public fan, so to speak.

    • It is possible that he may now – as president-elect – also have been given an upgraded assessment of the situation as part of his new NSA security briefings. (Apparently a president-elect receives the same daily briefing as a sitting president.)

    • I also see Comey’s recent backing off of charging HRC (Hillary) with impropriety regarding her email server as a tactical move in keeping with the larger operation: if HRC has not been charged with anything before Obama leaves office, Obama cannot pardon her for anything. That leaves HRC as secretary of state open and undefended by the sitting presidency if charges proceed during a Trump presidency.

    • But now Trump – as president - and the presidency itself must be protected from any taint of “personal vendetta” in the grave and unprecedented undertaking of indicting a secretary of state for treason. It must proceed based on the evidence and with the support of congress (which is now assured.) A president in this chess game must be seen to allow the wheels of justice to turn unimpeded.

    • Looked at another way, it is utterly inimical to Trump’s extremely narcissistic personality to suddenly cease seeking to humiliate and destroying whomever he perceives as an enemy or disloyal ex-friend. This is a man who literally lies awake at night seething about perceived slights and who lashes out without restraint nor surcease against any and all. For him to suddenly make nice with HRC is undoubtedly not his idea of how to handle an opponent and ‘a loser’.

    • But Trump is an actor, a showman and reality TV star able to play to a script when necessary. And he is at least smart enough to understand that if he shuts up now he may catch a much bigger fish later, make a better deal so to speak.

    • A further sweetener to secure Trump’s cooperation could be an implied plea bargain that agrees to avoid indicting Trump’s mafia friends in the takedown if Trump stays out of it. Trump himself has plenty of dirt to dig there. (Anyone who thinks that you can run casinos without mob involvement is charmingly naïve. )

    All in all, I see this playing out according to a well thought out series of contingencies. We will see.

    Cheers,

    Selene
