The Republican National Committee offered a clever response to Hillary Clinton’s announcement of her presidential campaign Sunday that serves to remind voters of the former secretary of State’s shady e-mail practices.
The RNC circulated a flash drive containing Clinton’s lost “e-mail files” to journalists ahead of Hillary’s big announcement.
The drive contains fake e-mails sent by Hillary to President Obama, Vice President Joe Biden, former IRS official Lois Lerner, and others.
Clinton has undergone plenty of scrutiny since reports surfaced that she exclusively used a private e-mail system while at the State Department.
The now-official Democratic candidate for president made her cyber communications look even more suspect when she deleted all e-mails — over 30,000 messages — that her staff deemed private from her account and later wiped her private server clean.
As Clinton’s presidential campaign gets underway, it appears the e-mail scandal will be a prime point of attack for her Republican opponents.
GOP presidential candidate Rand Paul also knocked Clinton for the e-mail controversy over the weekend by advertising “Hillary’s hard drive” for sale on his website.
Hillary announced her bid for the White House on social media Sunday before heading to Iowa to kick off a presidential campaign that will focus on appealing to “the people” rather than putting emphasis on herself.
