Description

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Sunday that she believes Donald Trump should be treated as any other citizen when it comes to the Department of Justice's investigation into his potential mishandling of classified documents. "He's not the president, and we do have some special exceptions for someone actually in the office. So, I do think that, just like any American, if there is evidence, that evidence should be pursued," Clinton told CNN's Dana Bash on "State of the Union." "But I know it's not an easy call. And so, I don't want to inject my opinion into that difficult calculation. Because I don't know all the facts. And unlike people who jump to conclusions, I don't want to do that. But if the evidence proves or seems to show that there are charges that should be leveled, then I think the rule of law should apply to anyone," Clinton said.
