Senior writer Stephen F. Hayes joined Fox News on Tuesday to talk about updates in the presidential race and new Benghazi revelations.
Host Martha MacCallum talked about news from some recent Hillary Clinton email releases that revealed New Jersey senator Bob Menendez “was basically wired two questions that they wanted to have asked” from the former secretary of state’s office at Clinton’s 2013 hearing on the Benghazi attack.
Hayes said, “We’re seeing what happens behind the scenes.”
“It’s not necessarily shocking that Democrats in Hillary Clinton’s camp were working, coordinating with Democrats on Capitol Hill,” he said. “Anybody who watched the hearings live in real time understood that the Democrats on Capitol Hill, both in the Senate and in the House, were effectively just doing her bidding and setting her up with softball questions.”
Hayes added that Trump has “caused himself less damage over the past couple of weeks,” but there has been “a torrent of reporting on Clinton—not necessarily because she’s been getting tough questions.”
