Related: About this forumHillary doesn't trust the US Government
Isn't that what her private server means?They told her to do her business on a government network, but she didn't trust the government so she put up her OWN server.
Think up your own reasons why she didn't trust OUR GOVERNMENT.

Which speaks volumes.
By operating that private, unsecured, off-the-grid server, she was circumventing FOIA laws. All of her emails were supposed to be backed up on government computers.
That didn't happen.
What she did was unprecedented. No higher-level government official has ever done anything like this before.
Hillary Clinton--Blazing new trails!

Mostly, because of her and her "but 95% opacity IS transparency to a degree" New Democrat ilk.

(And she did use the proper secure system for classified info.)
