WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — Earlier on Tuesday, Trump’s senior advisor Kellyanne Conway said in an interview that Trump did not plan to further probe Clinton's private email server.
"There’s a tradition in American politics that after you win an election you sort of put things behind you," Giuliani told reporters. "If that’s the decision he reached, that’s perfectly consistent with sort of a historical pattern…you say a lot of things, even some bad things might happen, but you sort of put it behind you to unite the nation."
During the presidential campaign, Trump said he would appoint a special prosecutor to probe Clinton’s use of the private server as US Secretary of State.
In late October, the FBI reopened the investigation into Clinton's private email server, however, eight days later, the FBI director said he would stand by his July decision not to recommend criminal charges.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation conducted a criminal probe whether Clinton intended to break US law by using a private server and email account. Director Comey previously concluded that Clinton’s use of a home-based email server for official business as the United States’ top diplomat was "extremely careless," but he did not recommend criminal charges against her.
