Todd was interviewing Graham about the controversy surrounding the revelation that Hillary Clinton only used a personal email account while she was Secretary of State. Graham told Todd that he wanted to know whether other Cabinet members who served when she did also had personal email addresses.

The question prompted Todd to ask Graham whether the senator had a personal email address, to which he replied, "I don't have email. You can have every email I've ever sent. I've never sent one."

Graham added, chuckling, "I don't know what that makes me."
