Everybody is looking at the Clinton email situation with perfect 20/20 hindsight and everybody lost sight of the reality at the time she took over at the State Department.
REALITY: The State Department email system was antiquated in 2009 when Hillary took over as SoS, and it was never upgraded during her tenure. In fact, it was not updated until recently. Users were incapable of accessing email from any device outside the State Department private network meaning that the SoS could not access her State Department Email most of the time because she was constantly on the road.
REALITY: Her predecessors who used email (Condaleeza Rice and Colin Powell) both used private email while on the road (10x Less Secure) and it was recommended Hillary do the same.
REALITY: Realizing that she could not trust third party email providers to provide a secure environment, Hillary opted for a personal email server to provide communication functionality that was critical in her ability to do her job.
With perfect 20/20 hindsight I'll say what I've said all along. The NSA should be providing, and should have always provided the secure email environment for the SoS just like they do for the president, the vice president, the National Security Advisor, and the highest levels of the Department of Defense.
Deal With It ... or not .. who cares, you lose, again.
Next fake Scandal !!!!!
