Thus, the so-called conciliatory speech on election night was a fluke

He visited the Lincoln Memorial, he used the Lincoln bible, but there was no:

"With Malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds."

No, he did not apologize to anyone - has never done this in his life, still

"Now it’s time for America to bind the wounds of division; have to get together. To all Republicans and Democrats and independents across this nation, I say it is time for us to come together as one united people."

It’s time. I pledge to every citizen of our land that I will be president for all Americans, and this is so important to me. For those who have chosen not to support me in the past, of which there were a few people.. . . I’m reaching out to you for your guidance and your help so that we can work together and unify our great country."

It was enough to calm many, among main stream Republicans. Of course, the next morning, or soon after, he started twittering.

Most of us have to wonder why he could not do the same yesterday. I suppose this was as far as he could go.

Trash that we have been saddled with. My co worker was playing his Inagucrap and I heard a little and I said Oh good I'm glad he's being so inspirational and trying to bring us all together. He had nothing to say to that. I'll let you know when I start seeing the cracks in the armor of these Trashpot supporters. It's gonna happen.
