Hillary Clinton says she wishes she had confronted FBI Director James Comey directly in 2016, challenging what she calls his breach of Justice Department norms against interfering in elections. She hesitated to pick a fight with the head of the FBI and now says she was the do-right person for too long. She adds that people had been voting for 10 days after Comey's intervention, and that her internal polling and Barack Obama both told her she would win.
