The former Secretary of State also weighed in on Mike Pompeo's reported involvement in the call and Rudy Giuliani's dealings in the country, which she called a 'big problem.'
that Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was present during the Ukraine call; Pompeo has opposed releasing the audio of the call. The revelation gave Colbert the opportunity to drawn upon Hillary's expertise as a former Secretary of State herself. "How many times when you were Secretary of State with President Barack Obama did you say, 'You can't extort foreign countries to get dirt on your political enemies?'" he asked the politician.
"The president's behavior was at least embarrassing, if not illegal and impeachable. So I think if the Secretary of State was on the call, as is now being reported, he should have been one of the very first people to say 'Wait a minute, we've got to clean this up. You can't let that stand.' But we don't know what he did," she added.
Hillary also addressed the recent admission from Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani that he had also worked to push Ukrainian officials to investigate Hunter Biden's dealings in their country. When asked how she felt about Giuliani doing international business on behalf of the United States, she responded dryly, "Yeah, that would be a big problem."
Explaining that Cabinet members sometimes use envoys or special advisers to deliver messages on their behalf, she added, "It is supposed to be thought through. And from what we've seen on television, carefully thinking through is not one of Rudy's strong points."
