Vice President Joe Biden, saying he's never been a "big fan" of former Rep. Anthony Weiner, called on FBI Director James Comey to release newly discovered emails from the disgraced lawmaker's files connected to the bureau's investigation into Hillary Clinton private server.

"I think Hillary — if she said, what I'm told she said, is correct — release the emails, for the whole world to see" Biden told CNN's Michael Smerconish in an extensive interview airing Saturday. "To the best of my knowledge, it won't prejudice the investigation, but that's the stilted language the agency always uses, and it doesn't mean anything. It's unfortunate."

On Friday, law enforcement officials said the FBI's probe into reports about Weiner sexting with an underaged girl led to a review of the emails that were discovered on a laptop.

Weiner recently separated from his wife, top Clinton aide Huma Abedin, but Biden said he didn't want to comment about the former congressman's connections with the email server scandal.

"Well, oh God, Anthony Weiner," Biden told Smerconish. "I should not comment on Anthony Weiner. I'm not a big fan. I wasn't before he got in trouble. So I shouldn't comment on Anthony Weiner."

However, the vice president defended his decision to stay out of the 2016 presidential race, and said Friday's announcement has not made him change his mind.

"I thought I could beat Hillary. I thought I could beat anybody that ran. No one should run for president unless they think they can do that," Biden commented. "I didn't run for one simple, overarching reason: My son was dying and he died. That's the total reason. I have great respect for Hillary."

But even though he respects Clinton, Biden said he doesn't want to be part of her administration if she wins the race, including serving as her secretary of State.

"I will do anything that she wants if she's elected president to help her," said Biden, "but I'm not looking to be in the administration. It's time for me to move on."

Biden said he also is not interested in being nominated as a Supreme Court justice, as he believes Clinton should continue the nomination of federal appeals court judge Merrick Garland, whose nomination has been stalled in the Senate for several months.

"I'm not going away," he said. "I plan on being as deeply engaged as I am now in the capacity of a citizen that has more of a platform and the ability to convene people."

The vice president also spoke out against Donald Trump, saying that while the GOP presidential nominee is popular among working class voters, he hasn't done anything to help them.

"People are upset and angry," Biden said. "They hate the dysfunction of Washington. Trump comes along and talks about how he's going to change all that, he's this breath of fresh air."

But people are starting to see who he is, and that he's offering "nothing, nothing, zero for these folks," and while Americans may not trust Clinton, even fewer people trust Trump.

"This is not a case where one person is really trusted and another person isn't," said Biden.

He did not, however, back down from commenting last week that he wishes he could take Trump "behind the gym" following the hot mic comments released from the nominee earlier this month.

"This is not 'locker room talk,'" Biden said of Trump's explanation, and he finds it "insulting" that Trump would imply all men say similar things.

"If somebody in the locker room talked that way, and your sister's outside with her friends, you know what you do. You know what you do. You don't let it go on."

Biden called for a change in the culture about how people talk about and treat women, telling Smerconish that has been "one of the causes of his life."

"And here's the guy who says 'because I am a star' — implicitly — 'Because I have a lot of money, I can walk out and grope any woman I want.' That is a textbook definition of sexual assault ... Think how crude this campaign has become," Biden said.

He also called Trump "fully unqualified" to serve as president, but said he'd help him out if he does.
