Thursday, Donald Trump, late in the polls against Democrat Joe Biden and confined to the White House a week after testing positive for Covid-19, unusually attacked his Secretary of State, the one of the few to have escaped public criticism so far.
He deeply lamented that Mike Pompeo failed to come up with enough to blame former Democratic Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the email affair.
These emails "
are at the State Department but Mike Pompeo has been unable to get them out, which is very unfortunate,
" said the president-candidate.
"
I'm not happy with him about it,

Hillary Clinton, the unsuccessful White House candidate facing Donald Trump in 2016, was criticized for using a private server for some of her correspondence at the State Department, and not the secure government server.
In campaign against her, the Republican had never ceased to demand her imprisonment.
After an investigation, the FBI had not retained charges against Hillary Clinton, but had considered that she had been "
extremely reckless
".
“
Remember, there was confidential information on a private server.
It should never have happened,
”said Mike Pompeo on Friday.
“
Hillary Clinton should never have done that.
It was unacceptable behavior
, ”he insisted.
An investigation by House Democrats revealed last year that Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka and her husband Jared Kushner, both White House advisers, also used private emails for exchanges related to their government activity.
