Donald Trumps campaign manager on Thursday grudgingly conceded that a story her candidate pushed on the trail about the FBI predicting an indictment for Hillary Clinton was baseless, but said that the political damage to the Democratic nominee was already done.
MSNBCs 11th Hour host Brian Williams asked Kellyanne Conway about a report from Fox News in which two anonymous sources with intimate knowledge of an FBI inquiry into the Clinton Foundation said an indictment of Clinton was likely. Trump recounted a version of the report to a crowd in Jacksonville, Florida on Thursday, crowing that FBI agents said his opponent would be indicted.
This has been walked back, the indictment portion, by Fox News who originally reported it and by NBC News which has done subsequent reporting on this, Williams said. Will Donald Trump amend his stump speech to walk back the same thing?
Well, the damage is done to Hillary Clinton, Conway replied. No matter how it's being termed the voters are hearing it for what it isa culture of corruption. Conway said the words of congressional Republicans like Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT) and Rep. Mike McCaul (R-TX) proved that Clinton will face all types of investigations if elected and that the U.S. will be living this nightmare from the moment she takes office.
