[VIDEO] Gowdy: Clinton server 'sure as Hell' inconvenienced others

Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) said on Sunday that Hillary Clinton was only helping herself by using a private email server during her tenure as secretary of State.
“The notion she did this for convenience raises the question: ‘Convenient for who?’ ” he asked host Chris Wallace on “Fox News Sunday.”
“It may have been convenient for her, but it certainly wasn’t convenient for anyone else,” Gowdy added of the Democratic presidential candidate. “It sure as Hell hasn’t been convenient for the American people and the intelligence community.”
Clinton announced last week she is turning over her personal email server and its backup thumb drive to Justice Department investigators.
Gowdy, the House Benghazi Committee chairman, argued on Sunday that the probe of her server is not a partisan one.
“The Inspector General is not partisan,” he said. “The FBI is not partisan. She need not blame House Republicans for having her own private server.”
“I get she is frustrated,” Gowdy added. “Her poll numbers are tanking and people she never expected to enter the race are entering the race.”
The South Carolina lawmaker additionally criticized Clinton’s persistent reluctance toward relinquishing the device.
“I wish she had done this in March,” Gowdy said. “We would be much further down this road at this time.”
“Perhaps there was something on there she didn’t really want us to see,” he added. “Had she not had this email arrangement with herself, I would not be on your show this morning.”
