Hillary Clinton said in an interview airing Friday that there are two different components concerning the ongoing investigation concerning her use of a private email server, and she's not "worried or concerned" about either one.
"There is a security inquiry going on, and if we respect that, it's on its own timetable, but it's moving forward," Clinton told MSNBC's Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski about the FBI's investigation, during an interview recorded Thursday and airing Friday on their
"Morning Joe" program.
"The other one — the lawsuit — they're not talking about the security inquiry, they're talking about Judicial Watch," Clinton continued, saying she believes there will be a resolution on the FBI's inquiry, and as far as the litigation is concerned, "some of them are right-wing outfits. Those will proceed and I'm not worried or concerned about them. I just don't want people to confuse the two."
The former secretary of state addressed several other issues in her interview, including her opinion on why younger women in the early primary states supported Sen. Bernie Sanders and not her.
"I think with younger women, I think they have every reason to feel like things are kind of messed up, "Clinton said. "I've talked to many, many young people and even — not just those who support me, those who support my opponent and that's what comes through."
Clinton in the interview also promised that, if elected, she'll stand her ground "on things I don't agree with, but let's try to find as much common ground as possible."
"When I got to the Senate, Lindsey Graham (R-S.C) was my colleague," she said. "We started to get to know each other. There was a lot of history there, as you know, and then we teamed up to get health care for National Guard members.
"I traveled with him and John McCain. We got to know each other and that is exactly what I will do. There are very few people or certain events in politics where you say you have to write somebody off."
