Clapper: Lack of Trump-Russia Collusion Evidence ‘Not Necessarily Exculpatory’
‘At the time I left office, I had no — I had no evidence available to me that there was collusion’

CLAPPER: Well, my — my access insight here is aging off since officially, you know, that ended on January 20th. And at the time I left office, I had no — I had no evidence available to me that there was collusion.
But that’s not necessarily exculpatory, since I did not know the state of the investigation nor the content, what had been turned up in it.
