Ivanka Said She Didn't Know Using Private Email For Gov't Business Was Illegal

Ivanka sent over 100 official emails through her private acct, even after her father condemned Hillary for the same.
For most of 2017, Ivanka Trump used her personal email account to correspond with White House aides and Cabinet members, the Washington Post reported in 2018. The president’s daughter has explained away the misconduct by saying she simply did not know it was a potential violation of federal records law.

Nearly 100 emails were sent from Ivanka Trump that discussed official government business.
Ivanka’s representatives maintain that many of those emails were in response to people contacting Ivanka first.
Ivanka claims she did not know it was a rule, despite her father and his administration harping on former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton for a similar issue.
Sources told the Post that Ivanka wasn’t looped in on White House emails reminding employees not to use their private accounts.

Just entitled. It's ok for HER to do those things, because she's so special. Her daddy is the president and he says she can do anything she wants to do.

The entire rump campaign was built on Hillary's emails. I doubt that she didn't know, just being the usual entitled POS that they are.

is that when people ( repukes ) were trying a false charge on Hillary breaking the law with emails that now at this time you do not know it is against the law?

YES, you grotesque version of a barbie doll, it IS against the law.

She was to arrogant and entitled to bother with the law. She knows , but again a trump acting like she's above the law, and it only applies to the little people and not to her is how these people always act.

Ivanka is the type who doesn't pay attention to much--- her tiny scope is limited to how she looks in the mirror- or how she perceives she would look in a magazine ad.

She is as shallow and vapid as they come, and yet is the smart one that wants to be in the spotlight in that family. Tiffany is probably rolling her eyes-- but, Ivanka? might have been telling the truth.

Wasn't she paying attention at all during her father's campaign in 2016? What Hillary did was supposedly the crime of the century per Trump, Flynn, et. al.

I have seen that exact same subject line multiple times here over the span that this phony, little scumbag has been inserted into our government Each time, it was the same claim but different incidents, and different sources reporting it. How many times does this asshole need to be told? She is as stupid and dishonest as is her shitbag father.
