NOWHERE have I seen the question asked, and suitably answered as to "Why, and to what motivation, did
Madam Benghazi go to the bother and expense of setting up her own home-grown email server?"
Of course we can all speculate and guess the truth, but it has always been apparent to me that it was a premeditated move to circumvent Freedom of Information Act statutes, to prevent "smoking gun" type proof that from the start she intended to use the position as a means for personal gain (aka bribes and TREASON).
I decline to speculate on the precise motivation of a woman, who has exhibited sociopathic behavior, her entire adult life. Remember, I believe, that her last decent action was to have been a Goldwater girl, at age 14. Then something happened, and she went over to the far left, being tutored by some of the most loathsome anti-Americans, who ever lived. From her late teens on, she has behaved as something cast up out of Hell.
She does not think as others think. What goes on in her head is only superficially rational; self-serving, indeed, but why always the deceptive, anti-traditional values, approach even to the self-serving?
