This is a laugh. If the server was sanitized, they've just handed the FBI a boat anchor.

Hillary does little to help herself with these kind of phony, cringe-worthy comments that people see right through. All she does is embarrass herself further.

It's stupefying that people actually think she's managing the servers. She's got other concerns.

Can't she just ask one of those professionals, get the answer and put this to bed?
