Conservatives are warning Donald Trump not to get wobbly on his campaign pledges.
The caution comes after the president-elect on Tuesday abandoned his vow to prosecute Hillary Clinton, the latest sign of the break between the candidate who was elected president and the man who will be sworn in come January.
Since his historic, shocking election win over Clinton, Trump has softened some of his key campaign promises, sending mixed signals about his commitment to a border wall and a quick repeal of Obamacare.
Trump shocked his base when a senior adviser suggested he had reneged on his pledge to have his attorney general appoint a special prosecutor to investigate Clinton’s use of a private email server as secretary of state.
