‘We’d have to indict Colin Powell too’: Harry Reid jumps aboard the Save Hillary train

Harry Reid is standing up for Hillary Clinton using the “everybody does it” defense:

What’s Reid trying to say? Both of them broke the law so neither should be indicted? Or the opposite? Who knows — it’s Harry Reid and he lies for a living.
