Jeb Bush: 'Baffling' that Hillary Clinton used personal e-mail despite security risks
Presumptive GOP presidential candidate Jeb Bush criticized Hillary Clinton for using a personal e-mail account while acting as secretary of State, in an interview with Radio Iowa on Friday.
"For security purposes, you need to be behind a firewall that recognizes the world for what it is and it's a dangerous world and security would mean that you couldn't have a private server," Bush said. "It's a little baffling, to be honest with you, that didn't come up in Secretary Clinton's thought process."
Bush is making three public appearances in Iowa this weekend, The Washington Post reports, in the lead-up to an expected official campaign.
