CNN's Toobin Labels Ivanka's Email Situation— Arrogant And Stupid

Appearing with host John Berman on CNN Monday night, Toobin kicked off the discussion by exclaiming, “Irony is dead!” — a clear reference to President Donald Trump‘s recurring criticism of Hillary Clinton for using a private email server.

“The arrogance, the incredible arrogance — with a little measure of stupidity — thinking that, after watching this campaign, which she had a pretty good seat for, and then not being scrupulous about her e-mail practices is remarkable.”

Despite what he believes to be arrogance and stupidity, Toobin says he doubts the first daughter will get in legal trouble as a result of her reported actions.

“Most people realize that government officials do use their private e-mail occasionally. Hillary Clinton did it, too. It is not fundamentally a big deal. The news media made it a big deal. Donald Trump made it a big deal…It’s technically not within the rules, but everybody in government does it. This is the problem. This is why Hillary Clinton got a very raw deal.”
