Saw Fred this morning on meet the press and he talked about it . He explained that his friend did this years ago and he is going to talk to him about it . He said he did no jail time for this ,has paid his debt to society and has turned his life around and he is not going to throw his friend under the bus .
As long as he’s addressing it (unlike Clinton with Hsu, Peter Paul, et al), that’s all one can hope for. Kudos to Fred for dealing with it rather than spinning the issue.
