Ivanka Trump has recently received criticism for using a private email in her time as President Trump’s advisor.
Reports surfaced this month claiming she has sent hundreds of emails from a private email. She has now responded to the reports, saying there is truly “no equivalency” between what she’s done, and what Hillary has been accused of doing.
In an exclusive interview with ABC News that aired Wednesday, Deborah Roberts asked Trump how she ended up in the same situation that led her father, President Donald Trump, to make the phrase “lock her up” popular.
“Well, there really is no equivalency. All of my emails that relate to any form of government work, which was mainly scheduling and logistics and managing the fact that I have a home life and a work life are all part of the public record,” Trump responded.
“They’re all stored on the White House system, so everything has been preserved. Everything has been archived,” she added. “There is just no equivalency between the two.”
TRANSLATION: anyone who thinks Ivanka and Hillary are guilty of the same thing doesn’t UNDERSTAND what Hillary is guilty of.
While many lawmakers and those in the media took this opportunity to highlight what they deemed hypocritical of Ivanka and her father, others pointed out the stark differences between her use and Clinton’s, namely that Ivanka’s emails were never classified information, and Clinton’s were.
“In my case, all of my emails are on the White House server. There’s no intent to circumvent and there were mass deletions after a subpoena was issued,” Trump said, contrasting her circumstances with Clinton’s.
“My emails have not been deleted, nor was there anything of substance, nothing confidential that was within them. So there’s no connection between the two things,” she added.
So basically Ivanka scheduled stuff on her personal email. Hillary built a private server in her bathroom so she could send and receive classified information without having to disclose any of it.
Sooo. Yeah. “There is just no equivalency between the two.”
HuffPo, of course, set it to creepy music to make her look bad. Because of course they did:
