It was solely an initiative of a Platt River employee because he had failed to follow an nstruction given months before. It has been well explained in numerous articles. And the instruction that he was in fact reacting to was to was from a Clinton attorney to preserve all emails on the server.

All indication still show Clinton attempted to return all work related emails to the government. That is also what Comey found. The process used was not sufficient but was not designed to hide any work emails either. The other stuff about busting up cellphones and deleting emails was nothing unusual. Simply the normal flow. Neither Clinton nor her staff were required to maintain all emails just those that were "significant". That is basically the same rule in effect for all government employees. Phones were destroyed as a security function to assure any stray information did not get loose.

But you willingly believe all the lies of the Left regarding Donald Trump, with absolutely no evidence!
LOL. Obama was certainly not 'the most corrupt president in US history." Spending too much time on Stormfront?

With regard to a 'history of corruption" - NO ONE, but NO ONE can top your current Orange Dear Leader. And add to that his complete and total ignorance about the workings of government, how to get anything done, and how to bring people together.

At least Clinton was SMART.

Using an unsecured server is NOT SMART!

Actually there was nothing wrong with an unsecured server if it had been restricted to private and non-governmental stuff. And it would have been no worse than what her predecessors did if she had carefully stayed away from anything potentially classified.

The issue was that they discussed stuff that was potentially secure on that server. Not a lot but some. And that was careless. Does not say the stuff was classified as she had sufficient authority to determine classification. But still careless. Her staff should have objected and got that stuff to the classified systems where she did most of her work.

Because HRC used a private email server to hide certain communications involving the Clinton Foundation among others. Think about it: why did she wanted to setup a server in her own basement instead of using protected federal email servers? Could it be she had something to hide?

Obama and HRC have gotten away with a lot. AG Holder/Lynch was protecting them, so it's ironic that they're crying foul over AG Sessions. Bunch of hypocrites if you ask me.

So no mistakes made by Pence. Got it.

I'm not making excuses for Hillary; she probably should have went to jail. But Pence did THE SAME THING with his emails. It might not have been illegal in his case, but if we're talking about morals & intelligence it was equally bad judgement on his part.

Why are people mad about the emails and Hillary Clinton?

This is why.
https://youtu.be/Z2Tzn5Vh4Ow

Ambassador Chris Stevens screamed for help from Washington, and Hillary Clinton, whose job it is to make sure our embassies overseas are safe and in full operation, failed this man miserably. Military units nearby asked repeatedly if they can go in and try and save them, but D.C. kept on telling them to stand down. US embassies around the world are being attacked, and the news is silent. I was in Sydney, Australia in September of 2012, and the US embassy near Hyde Park was attacked.

Now, do I think the US should have presence in some of these desert countries where they are not welcomed? NO! And to be the world's police? No, I do not. But, I had voted for Obama in 2008 to get us the hell out of those regions, and he really didn't do anything. Heck, not too long ago before the elections of last year, I hear a convoy of US soldiers were killed in a skirmish in Somalia. WTH are we still doing there?

But either way, if Hillary had no problems looking the other way when all it took would be a phone call to send in an airplane or chopper to get Stevens out of there, what do you think she would do if some real stuff went down? And Barack Obama didn't seem too bothered by it either.
