Clinton: Trump ‘Already Making Up Lies’ About FBI Letter

After her under-four-minute press conference last night, Hillary Clinton discussed the FBI letter about potentially new emails they found, only this time she did it in, well, campaign mode.

The Florida crowd booed as soon as she mentioned it today, and Clinton followed up by saying, “If you’re like me, you probably have a few questions about it. It is pretty strange to put something like that out with such little information right before an election.”

She said this is deeply troubling, called on James Comey to provide further explanation, and said this about her opponent:

“Of course, Donald Trump is already making up lies about this. He is doing his best to confuse, mislead, and discourage the American people. I think it’s time for Donald Trump to stop fearmongering, to stop disgracing himself, to stop attacking our democracy. We can’t let him get away with this, can we?”

Trump earlier today said that there’s clearly something rotten here, called the system corrupt, and said that he’s basically been proven right on his belief that it was dangerous for a Clinton aide to be married to someone like Anthony Weiner.
