‘Like, With a Cloth or Something?’

In case Charlie had you feeling badly for Hillary Clinton, this:

Via The Hill:

Hillary Clinton dismissed the controversy surrounding her private e-mail server and defended her conduct as legal during a press conference in Las Vegas. 

A visibly aggravated Clinton repeatedly insisted that she had done nothing wrong and seemed frustrated at questions about the issue. “What I did was legally permitted, number one, first and foremost,” she said Tuesday. ”We turned everything that was work-related, every single thing.” 

She added that in “retrospect” it had not turned out to be convenient to have the private server during her years as secretary of state. 

“I regret that this has become a cause célèbre. But that does not change the facts and no matter what anybody tries to say, the facts are stubborn,” she said. 

Asked if the server, which has been turned over to the Department of Justice, had been wiped clean, Clinton initially shrugged and later joked: “Like with a cloth or something?” 

“I don’t know how it works digitally at all,” she added. 


Tom Wolfe couldn’t do better.
