During the election were you worried that Clinton was using a private email server? Well, worry no more. Trump has decided there’s nothing wrong with that:
Key advisors to the president, Kellyanne Conway and son-in-law Jared Kushner, as well as press secretary Sean Spicer and chief strategist Steve Bannon, all have accounts on the Republican Party’s rnchq.org domain, and are continuing to use them in addition to their official government accounts, according to Newsweek.
…
We note that the same rnchq.org domain was used by members of the Bush Administration, who were heavily criticized for having “lost” no fewer than 22 million emails when asked to hand them over to the presidential archives. It is also strongly suspected that the same domain and email server were compromised by Russian hackers during the presidential campaign.
That’s one way to put it. But the way you put it makes it seem like.Hillary was sending and receiving classified documents on that server. But was that true?
Newsweek did its job well. The RNC has deleted the email accounts in question. Newsweek and other press outlets will hopefully follow up and make sure that Trump aides are using government accounts for official business.
However, I would note that government officials can definitely have private email accounts. They just can’t do government business on them.
