Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank on Friday says that Bill Clinton’s airplane meeting with Attorney General Loretta Lynch suggests “that he believes at least that he’s above the typical rules and bounds of propriety.”
Appearing on “MSNBC Live,” host Tamron Hall asked Milbank about the “question of trust and whether the Clintons believe they live by their own rules.” (RELATED: EXCLUSIVE: Was Bill Clinton Plea Bargaining With The Attorney General?)
Milbank replied, “Well, certainly Bill Clinton walking over to the Attorney General does suggest that he believes at least that he’s above the typical rules and bounds of propriety.” (RELATED: Loretta Lynch Regrets Private Meeting With Bill Clinton [VIDEO])
“Now, does this become a long-term political story? This itself almost certainly doesn’t. But it does sound as if the FBI is preparing to present its findings to the Justice Department in the coming weeks.”
“Now, it still seems unfathomable that they would say ‘Yes, let’s attempt to prosecute the presidential nominee of the Democratic Party, if that’s where this was going, one would suspect they one would have gotten themselves in gear much earlier than this. So of course, that would be an earthquake if that were to occur but that still seems an exceedingly unlikely event.”
