Is the honeymoon over, so quickly?
Maybe.
Breitbart took a break from their alt-right lovefest today, to express shock and dismay over the announcement that Trump would not seek a special prosecutor to handle an investigation into Hillary Clinton’s email server.
Wow, Breitbart is unhappy with Donald Trump: pic.twitter.com/YOolCTsDC9

There would be no “lock her up” moment. Instead, Trump wants to help his old friend “heal.”
Just for giggles, I popped around Twitter to check some of the responses of Trump’s more faithful apologists.
It’s awesome.
Ann Coulter is sufficiently perturbed.
Whoa! I thought we elected @realDonaldTrump president. Did we make him the FBI, & DOJ? His job is to pick those guys, not do their jobs. https://t.co/8JCQOO0dSF

As happy as I am that our long national nightmare’s over, NO president shld be blocking investigators from doing their jobs. #EqualUnderLaw https://t.co/8JCQOO0dSF

I thought the point behind supporting him in the first place was that you thought he would do the FBI and DOJ’s jobs for them?
Laura Ingraham boot-licked her way into a potential job with the administration, so she has to be a bit more nuanced in her reaction.
Well, he’s not even president yet, but it looks like @realDonaldTrump already pardoned a turkey for Thanksgiving. https://t.co/ng61pHIQI6

No word from Sean Hannity, yet, but I’m willing to bet his take is: Trump, the Merciful.
Oh, yes. The Schadenfreude will be glorious.
