Eight years after targeting Hillary Clinton's email protocols, Trump's transition team is relying on private servers instead of secure government accounts.

Summary

Donald Trump’s transition team is relying on private email servers and devices instead of secure government accounts, raising cybersecurity concerns among federal officials as sensitive government data could be exposed.

This decision comes despite Trump previously criticizing Hillary Clinton’s email practices during the 2016 election, when he and Republicans framed her use of private email as reckless and dangerous.

Critics argue this inconsistency highlights insincerity, suggesting the prior outrage over Clinton’s emails was a politically motivated attack rather than a genuine concern about national security.
