"Maybe Biden, it could be a couple of other people that you and I both know,” Donald Trump mused. | Getty Trump: Maybe Biden should jump back into the race “If she's indicted ... therefore she wouldn’t be able to run essentially,” Trump said.

If Hillary Clinton gets indicted over her email server, Donald Trump said on Tuesday, it won’t be Bernie Sanders who becomes the nominee – it's more likely to be Vice President Joe Biden.

“If she's indicted ... therefore she wouldn’t be able to run essentially,” Trump said in a radio interview with WHO Radio’s Simon Conway after reports emerged that her server contained information classified above the top-secret level. "Maybe Biden, it could be a couple of other people that you and I both know,” he mused.


Biden ruled out a run for president in October after much speculation, saying he was "out of time" to mount a credible White House bid. Biden’s son Beau died in May, and he struggled with the decision to run as his family grieved.

In January, Biden told a Connecticut TV station that he regrets not running for president "every day," but said "it was the right decision for my family and for me."

Trump spoke with the conservative radio host before his rally in Ames, Iowa, on Tuesday night, where former vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin will endorse the businessman.
