WASHINGTON (NBC) - Republican Vice Presidential candidate Mike Pence reacted to the FBI's notes on its interview with Hillary Clinton by calling her "the most dishonest candidate for President of the United States since Richard Nixon" in an exclusive interview on NBC's "Meet the Press."
"It is a tough charge," Pence conceded when pressed, "But, come on."
The Indiana governor continued, "What's evident from all of the revelations over the last several weeks is that Hillary Clinton operated in such a way to keep her emails, and particularly her interactions while Secretary of State with the Clinton Foundation, out of the public reach, out of public accountability."
All of the revelations regarding Clinton's use of private email, according to Pence, "truly does disqualify her from serving as President of the United States."
While Clinton battles accusations of secrecy and wrongdoing, the Trump campaign also has questions to answer on the issue of transparency.
Neither Donald Trump nor Mike Pence have released their tax returns - but Pence says that will change soon.
"Donald Trump and I are both going to release our tax returns," Pence pledged. "I'll release mine in the next week."
Pence, however, wouldn't commit to a timeline on when Trump's returns would come out: "Donald Trump will be releasing his tax returns at the completion of an audit."
Pressed on if that would be before November's election, Pence replied, "Well, we'll see."
I am so tired of the Nixon is the most evil person in American history thing.. Its been surpassed so many times, by leftists. However they will keep it at the top of their list as a propaganda tool forever.
It would have been interesting to see what the information would have been like online if the internet had existed during Watergate.
She got fired for dishonesty by the folks going AFTER Nixon. That took some doing.
Wilson was worse and a ‘progressive’ like hillary.
Nixon was never this dishonest and he was a true patriot!
You left out Slick Willie.
In essence Nixon told one lie.
Hillary tells more lies in one 20 minute speech than
most people can keep track of.
Nixon was slimed by the press. He was not really a crook. He was actually a pretty good President. Hillary is a thousand times a crook, who deserves the electric chair for a multitude of murders.
Compared to Hillary, Barry is a close second for congenital liarhood.
Herself has been fixated on Richard Nixon, and perhaps said to Herself, as far back as 1973, “I can do better than that!”
Herself has tried in so many ways to emulate Nixon, in an intense effort to not be trapped in the same way he was. Herself has set the bar so much higher, that an aura of invincibility has grown up, and Herself has started to believe in it.
It was not entirely a coincidence that Herself was part of the committee assigned to drawing up the Articles of Impeachment to be presented to Nixon, and that in doing so, her contributions were in fact based on allowing half-truths and outright lies to be included in the language. Herself was sharply reprimanded for these lapses, but contrary to popular belief, was not dismissed from the panel for those reasons.
Is pence that much of an idiot? He picks Nixon when he had Johnson, Clinton, Obama to choose with obvious scandals far more crooked.
WOOHOO!!! THAT’S OUR V.P.!!!
GO.TRUMP/PENCE.GO!!! ALL THE WAY TO THE OVAL OFFICE!!!
Pence has been drinking too much of the Beltway Bathwater. He needs to spend more time in.......Indiana. Obama, Clinton 42, and Clinton 2008 were all far more dishonest than Nixon. It’s only the DC liberal media that paints Nixon to be so corrupt.
All Nixon did was try to cover for his trusted friends instead of throwing them under the bus or having them meet with terrible accidents. A lot more than I can say about the Klintoons
Clueless
Pence’s first misstep.
Nixon was flawed, but nothing compared to THE CORRUPTION.
“Clueless”
My first thought, also...or is he too close to the current UNIPARTARIANS?
Barack, Hillary and the Gang of 535 in CONgre$$ are part of the most evil government in the history of this fabulous republic.
One grievance (and it’s BIG)...
Land of the thieves, home of the slaves.
What are you thinking, Pence?
Yes, he was a horrible VP pick.
Nixon was a saint compared to Hellary.
