Throughout the 2016 presidential campaign, Donald Trump blasted Hillary Clinton for using a private e-mail server for government business while Secretary of State. One would have thought that, at least, would not be a mistake that anyone in the Trump administration would make.
However, it seems that Ivanka Trump was not listening to any of her father's campaign speeches or reading his tweets. She has done the exact same thing. After becoming a member of her father's administration, she used a private e-mail account to do government business.
The public is not happy about it. They think it presents a problem by a 54 point margin, believe it was illegal by a 28 point margin, and thinks it was unethical by a 42 point margin. Majorities think it was a problem (72%) and unethical (58%). A plurality of 46% knew it was illegal.
These charts reflect the results of the new Politico / Morning Consult Poll -- done on December 4th of a national sample of 1,975 registered voters, with a 2 point margin of error.
