John Cornyn: “Director Comey's misdeeds weren't just directed toward…”

“So I don't think this case even gets to trial. What's your reaction to all that, Senator? Well, I think bringing up the Hillary Clinton matter, it's important to point out that Director Comey's misdeeds weren't just directed toward Donald Trump. He mistreated Hillary Clinton by exposing derogatory information against her. as a result of her email server. But then ultimately, he said, well, no reasonable prosecutor would prosecute this case. You're not supposed to make those sorts of statements and then refuse to go forward and indict.” (04:12–04:27)
