attorney general loretta lynch declining to press charges. when will clinton speak out?bi james comey say tomorrow on capitol hill? meanwhile donald trump doubles down, selling a crowd in cincinnati that saddam hussein was good at killing

on the day when loretta lynch decided she would not bring charges against hillary clinton, trump started off right on message. he was hammering hillary clinton calling her a liar for everything she said about her e-mails in the past. saying any normal american would have gone to prison for the things hillary clinton got away with. then he went off on tangents. doubling down on the campaign decision to put out a graphic of hillary clinton with a six-pointed star and piles of cash. >> to me it was just a star. when i really looked at it, it looked like a sheriff's star. cnn started this dialogue going it's the star of david. and because it's the star of david, donald trump has racist tendencies. these people are sick, folks. i'm telling you. so we have unbelievably dishonest media. think of that. you have the star, which is fine. i shouldn't have taken it down. they took the star down. i said too bad. you should have left it up. i would have rather defended it. that is not a star of david. it is a star. it is all about corrupt hillary. >> reporter: that is a number of incidences where trum

interestingery political subplot, when loretta lynch met with bill clinton on the tarmac. at has thrown a additional element of political uncertainty into this. there was a story revealing the clinton people would consider reappointing lynch if clinton was elected. there's a lot of waters to be muddied here. the way i described this is it is a mixed glee bad for her trunk. on one hand, the republicans definitely would have preferred obviously to be running against somebody under criminal indictment. but in the absence of an indictment, clinton has still been very much damaged by this. there's a huge opportunity cost for the last 16 months of her having this hang over her head. thirds of americans, democrats and republicans, in the last poll i saw last week, don't trust hillary clinton. she has paid a political price and will continue to. hari: what has the republican response been today? glenn: that's really interesting. donald trump put out his statement. there's a certain sense of tranquility about his pronouncements. he has been very message discipline today, talking abo

well, we actually know, the last time was monday when loretta lynch met with bill clinton in a privatetion of an arizona airport. join us now, alfonational correspondence at 10:00 a.m. here on msnbc. jersey boy, on the short list, now, it was reported that chris christie couldn't past the vetting of the romney campaign to actually even be in the running. that's before bridge gait and that's before his problem. this week it's revealed he was using private e-mail that was never turned over to investigators what are the chances of chris christie ending up on this ticket and helping the ticket, in any way. >> i think it's a small probability. but you would say a year ago, what were the ods that donald trump was the nominee. chris christie announced his intentions to run for president a year ago. he has the bridge gate baggage, he also has the same baggage that senator kain has he went to king of jordon on the meal ticket. he enjoyed games in dallas with jones, the owner of the dallas cowboys. i think he's offering a lot to the ticket as vp. he may bring some stuff behind the scenes, there'

. >> when loretta lynch was asked about it yesterday she made it appear as though it was spontaneous,sarily planned. although she wasn't asked that directly. she did try to poke a little fun at herself over the controversy, didn't see? >> she did. this was interesting. she poked fun at herself. showed self-awareness. to set up the joke, you have to remember that both loretta lynch's plane and bill clinton's plane was on the tarmac. bill clinton decided to pop over to loretta lynch's plane to say hello. >> what didn't eric holder tell you about the job? what's the one thing you wish he would told you. >> where the lock on the plane door was. >> so there you have loretta lynch making light of the situation. you know, and she was asked in that interview couldn't you have kicked him out. she made the point it was kind of a social call that would have been awkward. essentially, you know, she's trying to get past this, the democrats are trying to get past this. i don't think the republicans are going to let it go. certainly, also important to remember here, she was appointed by president ob

this is a time when loretta lynch will be questioned on some of these issues and she will also have the opportunity to tell her story, to give some insights and perspective that may not have come through the headlines over the last several days. this is a chance for her to be questioned in this setting about that meeting. we've seen her in an interview setting talking about her painful regret about the appearance of the meeting with the former president, although she and the former president say nothing inappropriate was discussed, it was family life and small talk, but she acknowledges that was unfortunate. also the question of there have been reports that perhaps bill clinton suggested that a president hillary clinton would keep the attorney general on in a new administration. expect her to be questioned about that. also the issue of was there perjury when james comey, the fbi director was here last week, he raised the issue of statements that he described as not being accurate, said by the secretary of state in her interviews and perhaps to a degree in her testimony before the house,

just point out that a very significant political subplot in this occurred a couple of days ago when loretta lynch met with bill clinton on his plane on the tarmac. that has really thrown an additional element of political uncertainty into this, and there was a "new york times" story about my friend pat healy over the weekend revealing the clinton people would consider reappointing lynch if reelected. so this is a mixed goodie bag for trump. on the one hand the republicans definitely would have preferred obviously to be running against somebody under criminal indictment, but in the absence of an indictment, clinton has still been very much damaged by this. you know, there's a huge opportunity cost over the last 16 months of her having this hang over her head. two-thirds of americans, democrats and republicans, in the last cbs poll that i saw last week, don't trust hillary clinton. so she has already paid a political price for this and i think will continue to. >> sreenivasan: what's the republican response been today? >> well, that's really interesting. you know, i was just looking, donald trump j

we should point out that a lot of people thought, including myself when loretta lynch said that jameshat is the u.s. attorney, said to, that james comey would be handling the case after she met with bill clinton, assuming conflict of interest last week, a lot of people think james comey is straight-shooter and go basically do the right thing and bring some charges. but i'll tell you that press conference, this is where i think comey's reputation is on the line here. he said stuff that made it sound like he wanted to bring charges. that his staff wanted to bring charges. and at the end he said no. and something he will have to answer for. liz: he said, he gives this massive outline of all of what appeared to regular folks to be massive issues. 2,000 were up-classified. 2000 of these emails. 110 of them were classified. eight were top secret. seven were top secret special access. for those of who don't know what that means, that means top secret and even members of congress can't even look at them. this was serious -- >> not only that, she used mainly her private account. liz: well that

we expect the real fireworks to begin later if and when loretta lynch is questioned about her meeting at the airport in arizona last month. did they really just talk about grandchildren? that is what we want to hear about and we will bring you that if and when it happens, we will bring you the fireworks, your money is the real story today. a half-hour into the trading session california is waking up to record highs for the dow industrials, wake up in style, 800351 was the all-time high for the tao. we crossed it and then some. remember we had the worst start to a year for the tao ever back in the first week, remember that? and look at us now, up 118, 328, a new record high for the s&p 500 as well, 12 point gain their. when you look at the nasdaq, all the big tech stocks and small ones too, 5023, it is now positive for the year, the 10 year treasury yield up today 1.49%. it was 132 a week ago. stock of the day, stock of the month, the decade, i don't know. amazon, look at it. this is prime day where prime members have access to thousands of special deals. more than half of all amazon c

this time with loretta lynch, when their planes were parked at the same airport at the same time. ll clinton found out her plane was nearby and he wanted to say hi. after all, he appointed loretta lynch as u.s. attorney general in 1999. also it's a courtesy for former presidents and officials to greet each other when they run across each other at airports. according to accounts, the two of them chatted about his grandkids and their recent travels and the golf bill clinton had been playing, and they talked about that stuff for a whole 30 minutes. and i guess that would be fine if loretta lynch didn't oversee the fbi, which is currently investigating the e-mail practices of bill clinton's wife when she was secretary of state and may be interviewing hillary clinton in that investigation as soon as tomorrow. the hyperventilating came fast and furious. there were immediate allegations the investigation had been compromised. republicans in congress started calling for a special prosecutor. one reporter called the whole thing shocking, absolutely shocking. bill clinton was notoriously pro

we saw the beginning of it last week when bill clinton entered loretta lynch's airplane. i have no idea what took place in there, maybe it was, get your wife in, we're wrapping this thing up, because gross negligence is extreme carelessness, that is just faxed. jim comey said there was a crime here, he just decided not to prosecute it. but he was clear, kim, he said there was in fact without any doubt gross negligence, his wording, extreme carelessness, that is gross negligence under the law. that's a violation. that's a crime. this frankly is absurd and the american people have had one pulled on them. >> a lot of people tweeting, including republican nominee donald trump, saying that this is an example of a rigged system. how can you reconcile for the viewers at home, and especially when the fbi can make a recommendation, he said he wanted to be transparent and in fact state what his recommendation was to loretta lynch and preface it with "no reasonable prosecutor would bring charges in this case." >> yes. >> sounds like judge and jury. >> what a waste for the taxpayer's

want to support the clintons between a meeting with former president bill clinton and usag loretta lynch when many democrats said was outrageous and to do it today seems like a lack of judgment. >> they are completely out of touch. something about the clinton idea they are above the law, and many ways it adds to the idea this is back room politics, you are in the pockets of each other, the idea there's a clinton clause that prevents her from having the same rules that ally to everybody else is preposterous given all that is around it. deirdre: ask -- is this one of the cases her case isn't better than a week ago? >> numbers are abysmal, that's against donald trump, this is not going to help her. james comey spent approximately 15 minutes essentially eviscerating honesty and integrity and saying the fbi does not recommend pursuing charges. this is under the pressure for a guy whose bosses, direct superiors, loretta lynch and barack obama did him no favors when it came to showing he was impartial when it came to showing what the fbi thought. deirdre: what do you make of the fact that comey laid

reporter: the outcome of the investigation rests with attorney general loretta lynch, who sparked a political firestorm when privately with bill clinton last week. the encounter generating ammunition for donald trump's campaign. >> even before this meeting between bill clinton and loretta lynch, the trump campaign had essentially seen this investigation as a win-win. somer she is prosecuted in way, or if not, they would claim whitewash. reporter: trump tweeting, it's impossible for the fbi not to recommend criminal charges against hillary clinton. what she did was wrong. she will accept what other recommendation is made by the lawyers and fbi agents investigating the case. abc news, washington. kellye: presidential nominee donald trump met with indiana governor mike pence on saturday. pence said to be on the list of possible trump running mates tried -- mate. a jet ski and pieces. coming up on abc 7 news, where it happened and how the man who was on it is doing tonight. kellye: a car bomb attacks in central and eastern baghdad. the white house condemning the bombing which kill 150 people and injured nearly

our sources at doj says loretta lynch was caught off-guard when bill clinton came on her plane. >> whatever correspondence had with loretta lynch is not something that can be subpoenaed, it is not an e-mail, text message, anything that was in any kind of public forum. this is the damage that the e-mail scandal is really doing to the clinton campaign. it is in her head. they don't want any kind of electronic correspondence. so they do these things, and look it, could have been a perfectly innocent meeting. the answer is, we don't know. we have to trust him. we have to trust her. so far, neither one has given the details. this will be an ongoing problem that will play itself out during the campaign. the scandal brings out the impulses within the clintons. they're secrettiv. >> she addressed that earlier this week, something she needs to work on. does this feed into that and call attention once again to the fact that the fbi is investigating her and her email use? >> well, you know, i think what she said was spot on, right. she is careful with her are words because she is careful with her word

he has created another firestorm by visiting with attorney general loretta lynch when their planes happenedbe at the same phoenix airport at the same time. he found out the attorney general's airplane was parked nearby and he wanted to say good-bye. he first appointed lynch as u.s. attorney in 1999. maybe it is a courtesy to greet each other when they run across each other at airports. i don't know. according to accounts from both times, they chatted about grandkids and their recently travels and the golf bill clinton had been playing. they talked about that stuff for a whole 30 minutes. i guess that would be fine if loretta lynch didn't oversee the fbi which is investigating e-mail practices of bill clinton's wife when she was secretary of state and which we learned today may be interviewing hillary clinton in that investigation as soon as tomorrow. the hyperventilating came fast and furious. republicans in congress started calling for a special pror. o prosecutor. one called it shocking, absolutely shocking. he's not always been on message this cycle either. having a shouting match with b

when i was u.s. attorney and was instrumental in police officers being prosecuted by loretta lynch when i was mayor.other hand, i also recognize that 75% of the murder victims in new york city are black. the police have to be present in the black community. not necessarily because they want to be not because you'd like to have them there, but because that's where the murders are taking place. from the time i became mayor and the time i left, murder wept down from 1900 to 500. then mayor bloomberg brought it down to 300. it's now going up again. in that period of time, we saved thousands and thousands of mostly black lives. by putting white police officers in areas where they were at risk. now the new york city police department is a non-majority white police department. that's by design. we accomplished making it a multi-racial,

loretta lynch. lynch says the two met by chance when she and bill clinton found themselves on the same airport tarmacphoenix, arizona. republicans say the meeting undermines confidence in the fbi investigation into hillary clinton's e-mail. lynch, the fbi's boss as head of the justice department said she and bill clinton had only a social conversation about grandchildren and golf and did not talk about his wife's e-mail. the white house defending the integrity of the federal investigation as donald trump weighs in calling the meeting terrible. >> do you think that was an appropriate conversation? >> well, it was shocking. it was shocking to me, but shocking to everybody that's saw it take place. i was soy surprised to see that. it's the system. it was very disappointing. >> both the president and the attorney general understand how important it is for the department of justice to conduct investigations that are free of political interference. she's made clear that that's the expectation that she has for the way that this investigation should be conducted. the president has made clear that certainly i

when he takes the stage. >>> attorney general, loretta lynch, said she wouldn't have an active role in generating findings into the investigation into hillary clinton's e-mails. speaking today in aspen, colorado, lynch said that decision was made months ago before she came under fire after an informal meeting with former president bill clinton earlier this week at an airport in phoenix. >> i certainly wouldn't do it again. because i think it has cast a shadow over what it should not, over what it will not touch. >> lynch says she will let career agents put together recommendations and accept them. >> we are watching developments into the istanbul airport terror attack. we are learning more about the identities of the suicide bombers and about this man, a chechnyan known as akhmed one-arm. he is a well-known terrorist on the watch list and a top soldier in the isis war ministry. >> they have had this long history of engagement throughout this entire region in terrorist activities. they had plenl they had pledged to al qaeda, fought for the taliban and fighting for isis. they tend to like to be at the front end

when you pull back. this goes on over and over and over again with both clintons. we so this business with loretta lynch. this is they are perpetually getting into trouble. she had a clear record when she went to be secretary of state and we wind up in a situation now being investigated by the fbi. this is the problem here and it goes directly to her favorable numbers and problem with not being thought of as trust worthy or honest. >> we know that donald trump is considering chris christie as a vice presidential running mate seriously and this is someone who is under investigation. that too is unprecedented. >> well, let's see who he picks, first of all. but the fact of the matter is, no presidential nominee to the best of my knowledge has ever been investigated by the fbi. least of all investigated about a handful of weeks before they are to accept the presidential nomination itself. >> i want to challenge you on something, you are aware of the friday news dump and i think it has something that we could put in that category would be the saturday of july 4th interview with the fbi. it's hillary clinton

bill clinton sparked controversy when he met with attorney general loretta lynch in the height of the e-mail probe. and the republican- led benghazi committee released an unflattering report on the administration's handling of the 2012 terror attack. the administration cooked up the claim they said of the video and no hard evidence to support it. hillary clinton referenced the video in the night of the attack. four americans were killed in the attack including ambassador stephens. republicans are reacting to the fallout this week. the republican national committee has a lot to say. >> they do. republican national committee and donald trump weighing in on the fbi interview and it shows that hillary clinton is unfit to be president and emphasizes the criminal investigation in her private e-mail server. and rnc is launching a scathing attack after loretta lynch privately met with bill clinton. and the meeting sparking widespread criticism given that lynch is head of the justice department and leading the investigation against mrs. clinton. the fbi wanted her for questioning reenforces he

i think it does raise additional questions about what bill clinton was thinking when he decided to meet with loretta lynch, the attorney general on that airport half an hour. it just raises all kinds of questions about how worried the clinton administration in waiting is about what is likely to come out of the fbi. first we have the office of inspector general's report from the state department that basically says she misled the department, she -- her aides misled them about the e-mail server. now we have an fbi concluding its inquiry. this is not -- this is not what she wants for her july fourth celebration. >> isn't it good though that she's doing it on the fourth of july weekend where a lot of people are distracted doing other things, there's some time before she makes her next public appearance? you've been watching politics for a long time. what do you expect will happen next? >> look, i think this is a story that is not going to go away unless and until the fbi makes it go away. that is, there are too many questions about this server. it has been going on for over a year. she herself volunteered sup

are politicians doing a disservice and like you talk about loretta lynch when she was up there yesterday saying that this shouldn't discourage the protesters and all these kinds of things? are politicians doing protesters a disservice and police officers a disservice throwing them under the bus? >> sure. i think there needs to be a voice of calm in washington but there also needs to be a voice of unity in washington. one of the thingses that amazing about this and it is related to the black lives matter element that you mentioned a second ago. there is also a fundamental division here in washington between lawmakers and even the united states supreme court of exactly how this relates to race and as it relates to the authority of the police. just about three weeks ago the united states supreme court issued a decision through justice thomas supporting the authority of the police to use after acquired evidence in a stop that initially been illegal but supported by a review of outstanding arrest warrant. so that was supporting the police. in a deeply divided voter justice sotomayor issued a

lynch's in under criticism. >> they were outraged with her silence when they grilled her about letting hillary clinton off the hook. >> we have more on the backlash. >> loretta lynch ducking and dodging questions while being drilled on capitol hill lynch hiding behind james comey's ee dags to the to prosecute hillary clinton. >> who made the decision not to prosecute hillary clinton? >> i made the recommendation to the team. i made it known when the recommendation was given i accepted the recommendation. >> did you ultimately make the decision or dushth tore comey? >> director comey was part of the team. >> who ultimately made the decision. >> the team was prosecutors and agents. >> who made the decision? >> i had previously decided i would accept their recommendation. >> lynch's ethics were already under fire after meeting secretly with bill clinton days before the fbi decision. jason chaffetz telling us on the record republicans didn't come close to getting what they wanted. >> playing this political game. she is being an obstructionist it is theater of the absurd. she is professional at filibustering. that's why the obama administration likes her. i asked

loretta lynch should have done. and i understand that particularly among democrats when bill clinton climbs aboard your plane, he's a former president and he's mr. charming and hard to stop him, but it was the wrong thing to do. she shouldn't have been caught with him. she should have stopped it, a staffer should have stopped it. and it's embarrassing to have her standing up there saying we talked about pictures and traveling. >> he's a former president, charles. he has staff, too. >> they can never stop him, that's the problem. >> when he starts bounding wherever he is, airport tarmac, his staff does not stand in the way. but he should have known this is a mistake. she should have known this is a mistake. how do you bump into somebody inside their private plane if you're starting from outside the private plane? and you notice how she said, we spoke primarily about golf and grandchildren. well, what was the rest about? yes, i'll take her on her word. but everybody is saying this is a silly, self-inflicted wound. it's not a big deal. but in the context of a clinton campaign, that is riddled with lies and coverups, an

. >> and katrina to, the point that when asked in aspen, loretta lynch said i will not change the outcomeand whatever the recommendation is from staff i will honor it. is that good enough for you? >> well, i'll say that i will make history, michael and agree with van jones on one thing that this does look really bad, and no, i don't think that it is going to be sufficient, simply, because to van jones' point there is a relationship between bill clinton and loretta lynch prior to this happening which makes it worse mainly because we now have a pattern of government agencies that have been corrupt to the core from targeting christians and conservatives all of the way down the scrubbing jihadi references and other references from day and the ta fbi for crying out loud and so, no, it is not going to be boding well for them, and this is not going to be going away with the e-mail scandal, and the clinton foundation, bill clinton himself could be under investigation. >> and van, respond to what katrina said. >> well, first of all, i appreciate your agreeing with me, but i will try to return the

donald trump is being over the top and being sort of silly when he's talking to his crowds, but this is the one thing he said about loretta lynch that i think kind of comports with what a lot of people thought when they heard that this meeting actually went on for 30 minutes. take a listen. >> bill clinton goes in the other day, into an airplane, just happened to be, oh, just a coincidence. he just happened to be at the airport at this time. think of it. just happened to be at the airport. he was talking about golf and grandchildren. i love my grandchildren so much. but if i talk about them for more than about nine or ten seconds -- i love that one, i love, love, love that one, and look at the beautiful -- i love these kids. after that, what are you going to say, right? >> jonathan, i think most people can talk about their grandkids for more than nine or ten seconds. >> exactly. >> but that is a point that, whether or not you're a donald trump supporter, is a good point. does that sound realistic to you? >> yes. >> and given the fact that it's bill clinton. >> yes. it is realistic to me. and, you know, i sort of bristle at the

charlie: you are not attorney general, loretta lynch was attorney general when fbi director james comeyeleased his judgment about the e-mail investigation into hillary clinton. he said she was careless. she said he clarified that. did he clarify that as far as you know? eric: i am not sure. i think in the hearing they made the next day, there was some clarity brought to things. charlie: what was the clarity? eric: he said the information i -- that had been clearly marked and in response he said there were a couple things, not headliners. the statement was in the strongly first day as it was before. charlie: but carelessness is not a presidential quality we want to see is it? eric: people make mistakes. abraham lincoln suspended habeas corpus. charlie: that was not careless. he knew what he was doing. it was a mistake. it was certainly a policy mistake. and wrong. what she did was a mistake and wrong. eric: she is a knowledge it was wrong, she has apologized. i made mistakes as attorney general. charlie: i would like to get a list of them. eric: we're talking about this election. people

would argue that her husband did not show that same respect for the process when he met privately with attorney general loretta lynch on the tarmac in phoenix on monday. well, hillary clinton insists that this meeting was purely social, that all they talked about was golf and grandkids, and that they did not discuss the justice department's review. >> it was a short, chance meeting that occurred. and they did not discuss the department of justice's review. and i know that some, nonetheless, have viewed the meeting in a different light and both the attorney general and my husband have said they would not do it again. >> well, this morning, several of her surrogates made the rounds on the sunday shows, to defend the integrity of the justice department's investigation into her use of a private e-mail server, while secretary of state. and into possible corruption within the clinton foundation. here's congressman xavier bacera, a democrat, on fox news sunday. >> just because it was a chance encounter with bill clinton who has no part in this investigation, doesn't mean you have to throw the investigation away. >> now, th

hillary clinton and i thought the same thing at some level that trump did when i first heard it, she's talking about loretta lynchve to job, then i thought to myself, donald trump is going to go on them. >> nothing i sent was marked "classified" or that i received was marked "classified". >> from the group of 30,000 e-mails returned to the state department in 2014, 110 e-mails in 52-e-mail changes have been determined by the owning agency to contain classified information at the time they were sent or received. >> we turned over everything that was work related, every single thing. >> the fbi also discovered several thousand work related e-mails that were not among the group of 30 e-mails returned by secretary clinton to state in 2014. i take classified information seriously. >> although we did not find clear evidence that secretary clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws intended for violating classified information. there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive highly classified information. >> jonathan, within the clinton campaign, how was the stock price of

all that, after bill clinton's tarmac talk with attorney general loretta lynch. >> when i first heard the story, i said, no, no. you're kidding. i don't believe it. >>> and fireworks over trade. >> we're not going to let donald trump bankrupt america the way he bankrupted his casinos. >> hillary is never going to bring your jobs back. >> i trust no one. >>> and veep stake frenzy. who is topping the list? just two weeks before the conventions kick off. here now, co-anchor martha raddatz. >>> hello, again. and happy fourth of july weekend. four months to election day. two weeks to the conventions. and the race for the white house is kicking into high gear. both candidates are vetting running mates. decisions on vice presidents imminent. hillary clinton is set to hit the trail hard this week with vice president biden and president obama himself. all this as the clinton e-mail investigation enters a dramatic final phase. saturday, clinton spent 3 1/2 hours being interviewed at fbi head quarters. voluntarily answering questions about that private server she kept while secretary of state. d

sandra: an honest reaction that a lot of other people had when they found out that loretta lynch and bill clinton stepped off their planes to talk to each other. julie: i must be high because i can't believe i'm agreeing with donald trump right now, but he's right about this. ultimately, at the end of the day he never, ever, ever should have done this. and loretta lynch -- listen, i understand. the former president, your former boss is coming up to your plane and says, knock, knock, i want to come in. i understand the human impulse to not turn him away because he is the former president, and you're a former employee of his. having said all of that, she should have. she should have done the right thing and said, i'm sorry, mr. president, as much as i would love to see you, it's inappropriate. my department is investigating certain matters -- sandra: he would have understood. dagen: the timing, the state department two days after this meeting has filed to they court-ordered release of e-mails from a freedom of information act request for 27 months. it's four of hillary clinton's aides

bill clinton sparked controversy when he met with attorney general loretta lynch in the height of the e-mail probe. and the republican- led benghazi committee released an unflattering report on the administration's handling of the 2012 terror attack. the administration cooked up the claim they said of the video and no hard evidence to support it. hillary clinton referenced the video in the night of the attack. four americans were killed in the attack including ambassador stephens. republicans are reacting to the fallout this week. the republican national committee has a lot to say. >> they do. republican national committee and donald trump weighing in on the fbi interview and it shows that hillary clinton is unfit to be president and emphasizes the criminal investigation in her private e-mail server. and rnc is launching a scathing attack after loretta lynch privately met with bill clinton. and the meeting sparking widespread criticism given that lynch is head of the justice department and leading the investigation against mrs. clinton. the fbi wanted her for questioning reenforces he
