Pence on private email use: ‘There’s no comparison whatsoever’ with Clinton server

Vice President Mike Pence dismissed any comparison of his private email use as governor of Indiana with the private email use of Hillary Clinton when she served as secretary of state, telling reporters on Friday that he had complied with state laws when using an AOL account to conduct some government business.

“There’s no comparison whatsoever between Hillary Clinton’s practice — having a private server, misusing classified information, destroying emails when they were requested by the Congress,” Pence said during a stop for lunch with House Speaker Paul Ryan at a Wisconsin pub. “We have fully complied with Indiana’s laws. We had outside counsel review all of my previous email records to identify any that ever mentioned or referenced state business.”
