Clinton's email scandal was certainly a factor and it was her own fault. What she did was stupid and negligent and it rightfully made people question her decision making ability. It probably wasn't criminal but it hurt her bad enough that I would consider it just punishment.

As for this situation now, the truth is that we don't know anything. There is actually nothing wrong with using private email for SOME types of correspondence. In fact, if the content has to do with subjects like campaigning or party functions, then they're SUPPOSED to use private email.

The content is the important part.

Yea, I might have jumped the gun a little but I believe they probably didn't follow the rules on forwarding all work related messages to their work accounts.  So using private emails isn't illegal but not following through with proper forwarding can be.  The story is barely breaking and not much has been heard after initial report which was vague on its own but if I had to put money down then I would put money down on this administration not complying with the rules set in place even though it was used a rallying cry during the election campaign.

I've added a paragraph from the story which states that nothing is wrong as long as they keep forwarding it to their work accounts.
