Indiana Gov. Mike Pence said on Saturday during a radio interview that the FBI's renewed investigation into how Hillary Clinton handled classified information while secretary of state is of "importance to the American people."
Pence, the GOP vice presidential candidate, called in to "The Larry Kudlow Show" after stumping in North Carolina. When asked what topics he and Donald Trump would discuss during the remainder of the campaign, he touched on the Clinton emails first.
"Clearly, the avalanche of hard evidence coming out of Hillary Clinton's years as secretary of state, the Clinton Foundation and the private server are all of importance to the American people and we’re talking about it," he said. "But everywhere I go I talk about security, prosperity and the Supreme Court of the United States."
The FBI on Friday announced it would review additional emails relating to Clinton’s case after agents found emails on a laptop shared by former Congressman Anthony Weiner and his wife Huma Abedin, a top Clinton aide.
Pence said Sunday on 'Face the Nation' that the news was great.
"That original decision was really incomprehensible," he said. "To arrive at a place where even in his testimony before the Congress, and in that long press conference that he gave … that literally Hillary Clinton had classified information on a private server that she said she didn’t have … that, to me, is the kind of double standard that the American people are weary of."
