Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server during her tenure as secretary of state presents security implications that might land her in prison, charged Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal on Sunday.
“With Hillary Clinton, it just seems to be one scandal after another,” the GOP candidate said on ABC’s “This Week.” “She’s literally one email away from going to jail.”
“What I fear is that maybe we’ll have to go to the Chinese and the Russians to actually see her emails,” he said.
“What’s clear is this — if a private in the military had done what they’ve accused her of doing, there would be real consequences,” said Jindal.
The FBI is currently investigating whether Clinton’s use of a personal server exposed sensitive material.
Clinton “shouldn’t be above the law,” Jindal said. “There shouldn’t be a different set of rules for our elected leaders than for the rest of us.”
Jindal continued: “I think the bigger issue here, the bigger scandal here, is the fact that Hillary Clinton seems to think, ‘what difference does it make?'”
A Des Moines Register poll released Saturday found that Sen. Bernie Sanders is now within 7 points of Clinton in Iowa. Clinton’s commanding lead over rival Democratic presidential candidates has eroded in recent months as her email scandal continues to roil her campaign.
A Quinnipiac poll this week showed that voters most frequently think of the word “liar” when they hear Hillary Clinton’s name.
