Trump Calls FBI Recommendation on Clinton Emails 'Very Unfair'

FBI Director James Comey's recommendation that Justice Department prosecutors not pursue charges against Hillary Clinton for using a private email server during her tenure as secretary of state is "very unfair” and another example of a “rigged” system, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said today.

Bernie Sanders' campaign reacted as well, with spokesman Michael Briggs saying that the FBI’s announcement will not affect the senator’s decision to stay in the race. Sanders has remained in the race despite Clinton’s locking up the Democratic nomination and Sanders’ admitting that he'll vote for Clinton in November.

The FBI announced today that Clinton used several different servers and out of the 30,000 emails turned over to the State Department, 110 emails in 52 chains contained classified information at the time Clinton sent and received them. Director Comey also called Clinton's use of private email servers "extremely careless."

Clinton has not responded yet to the FBI's recommendations. Clinton is set to campaign with President Obama in North Carolina later today -- their first campaign event together in 2016.
