Email-deleting, Blackberry-smashing Hillary Clinton said that President Trump should have been indicted for obstruction of justice based on the Mueller probe’s findings.
“I think there’s enough there that any other person who had engaged in those acts would certainly have been indicted. But because of the rule in the Justice Department that you can’t indict a sitting president, the whole matter of obstruction was very directly sent to the Congress,” said the former Secretary of State at the Time 100 summit in New York City.

Clinton said that Congress should continue to investigate the president, but cautioned Democrats on impeachment discussions.
She said impeachment should be “something undertaken in a really serious, diligent way, based on evidence.”
“The Mueller report is part of the beginning. It’s not the end,” she said.
