Kudos to Jedidiah Bila for asking the question. Boos to Robby Mook for the ridiculous answer.
Via Hot Air:
Tuesday I wrote about the scandal of Donna Brazile passing questions to the Clinton campaign and noted that, so far, the media hadn’t seemed particularly interested in investigating the other half of this transaction, i.e. what happened to the questions after the Clinton camp received them. Today, someone finally asked the question directly to Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook and he refused to give a direct answer.
“CNN just parted ways with Donna Brazile, reportedly for giving the Clinton campaign questions ahead of time, ahead of her debate with Bernie Sanders,” View co-host Jedediah Bila said. “You’re the campaign manager, you know the inner workings of this campaign, you’re aware of everything, can you unequivocally tell us that Hillary Clinton did not see those questions in advance?” Bila asked.
“Well, I haven’t seen the emails in question,” Mook replied, citing the now-standard Clinton campaign refusal to confirm the authenticity of emails leaked by Wikileaks. “I’ll be honest with you, they’re dumping out— these emails were stolen by the Russians, given to Wikileaks and they’re dumping them out every day, thousands of them,” Mook continued.
“I haven’t been, you know, taking my time up everyday to look them,” Mook said. “Here’s what I do know is that Bernie Sanders senior adviser said that he was in constant communication with Donna Brazile as well, that he wouldn’t like those emails to be out there,” Mood added.
“Is that an ‘I don’t know’? I don’t know if she saw the questions in advance?” Bila pressed.
“I am not aware of any questions getting fed in…that’s, look. Here’s the other thing I’ll say. Hillary Clinton is tough. She can take on Bernie Sanders. She can take on Donald Trump. I don’t…she doesn’t need to be fed anything,” Mook replied.
