On NBC's Meet the Press Sunday, former NBC anchor Tom Brokaw said that he was "stunned" by Hillary Clinton's "huge," "presumptuous" mistake of using a private email server.
Speaking with host Chuck Todd about the state of the campaigns, Brokaw admitted Clinton's chances to win have been significantly impacted by "some huge mistakes," which have left him "stunned":
BROKAW: She's made some huge mistakes in my judgment. And that wonderful interview that Andrea initiated, and, typically of Andrea, she went right after the issue. When she said [paraphrasing], "I didn't think about the effect of e-mail," I was stunned. I mean, we were deep into the digital age at that point—she's Secretary of State.
When Todd asked Brokaw, "Do you believe her?" the former Nightly News anchor hesitated but said, "I believe she was presumptuous," adding that the series of mistakes have detracted from her "big argument" of competence:
BROKAW: I believe she was presumptuous, is what I believe. A lot of people believe she's presumptuous. Where were the security people at the State Department saying, "Madam Secretary, you have to have a secure server over here. You can have something off to the left like Colin Powell did...." But at this point to suggest the Secretary of State, as much as she was around, didn't think about the possibility of hacking just astonishes me. And I think it takes away from her big argument, "I've been there, done that, I know what I'm doing."
