It's unlikely Hillary Clinton would accept a plea bargain from the Department of Justice if the FBI's email investigation is reopened, Ed Klein told Newsmax TV.
During an appearance on "America Talks Live," Klein — the author of "Guilty as Sin" — said Clinton is too stubborn to admit she might have done something wrong.
"Sometimes she has trouble admitting that she's Hillary Clinton, you're absolutely right," Klein told host Miranda Khan. "This is a woman who never, ever admits that she did anything wrong.
"We've all seen how she has blamed everybody but herself for her loss in 2016 at the presidential election. So you're right, I totally agree with you that the chances of her accepting such an offer are practically zero."

Klein reported earlier Tuesday that a DOJ official recently spoke with a Clinton legal adviser about the possibility of offering a plea bargain stemming from the email investigation. Former FBI director James Comey closed the case last summer, but Klein wrote that the DOJ is considering reopening it.
"They are seriously thinking of reopening this investigation and therefore if she doesn't take the plea agreement, which I agree with you, she almost certainly won't, I think they will then proceed with this investigation and this is going to drag on for a long time and in a way balance the investigation that's going on with President Donald Trump and his campaign advisers regarding so-called collusion with the Russians," Klein told Khan.
In a separate interview on Newsmax TV's "The Schnitt Show," Klein told host Rita Cosby that Clinton is a "battler" and would push back against a plea bargain offer.
"During the Monica Lewinsky scandal, it was Hillary who said no, we're not going to give an inch," Klein said. "She's not going to give an inch."
