Bloomberg Politics’ Mark Halperin took aim at Hillary Clinton Monday morning, saying on MSNBC’s Morning Joe that hers was the most unresponsive presidential campaign he ever had to deal with.
Halperin said that Clinton underestimates how much voters are concerned about her private email scandal. “When she told the joke [about her disappearing emails], there were people around me who gasped, because it’s not a joking matter for a lot of people.”
“She said here at the fair when she had a press availability, real voters don’t talk to her about this, they never bring it up to her. Well you know what, Joe? Real people never bring up to me I need to lose weight. They never tell me that. They might talk about it to other people, but they never say it to me,” he continued.
“I will tell you, here in Iowa, talking to people at the fair, talking to elite Democrats, they bring her emails up to me. Extraordinarily high degree, high frequency of people saying, ‘What’s the deal?’”
“I have never in my career dealt with a presidential campaign who is as unresponsive to basic questions,” Halperin said. “[Former Democratic Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell] said turn over the server, that’s not the only issue. There’s lots of facts they won’t respond to on a daily basis.”
