He was never putting her in jail anyway. If someone of her power can go to jail just over emails, likely all politicans over the course of 4-12 years would be able to be locked up for something or other and Trump knows that. He's already raising lots of issues like letting his daughter who's supposed to running his companies in a blind trust sit in on meetings with world leaders.
Besides, he is friends with the Clintons anyway, anyone who thinks he's some "outsider" in the world of ultrarich/influential people is naive. He's part of the same club.

The electorate doesn't seem to share the same view as you do (He's practically Ross Perot reincarnate only this time meaner and younger to shake the Republican Party.) ...
And before his second presidential bid, his donations in politics amounted to less than 2 million ...
Establishing a blind trust with Trump's assets is a dumb idea. He'd have to liquidate his business holdings which provides THOUSANDS OF JOBS. Not only does he have to liquidate his business assets but he'd have to accept massive losses when selling these assets through a buyer's market. It would discourage future entrepreneurs bid for presidency and that's a bad thing when washington has a very low amount of diversity when it comes to new ideas or issues ...
Setting up a blind trust would mean Trump taking on tons of losses and in the end it really doesn't help in reducing potential conflicts of interests when Trump now becomes more beholden to bribes since he has fewer assets than before ...
As counter-intuitive as it may seem, the more wealthy you are the less likely you are to corrupt the system ...
Trump is more likely to bribe than to take bribes (I'd rather it this way than vice versa) ...
