Huma Abedin: Hillary Clinton stayed with her husband because it was "right for herself, her family and her country"
cbsnews ^ | 11/02/2021 | Caitlin Yilek

Huma Abedin has spent much of her career alongside Hillary Clinton. She was there when President Bill Clinton's affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky was revealed, and was still close with Clinton decades later, when her own unraveling marriage to disgraced former Congressman Anthony Weiner threatened to derail Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign.

After 25 years in the background, Abedin is now sharing what it was like to be with Clinton when the Lewinsky affair became public. In her new book, "Both/And: A Life in Many Worlds," Abedin writes that she "was sad and angry on behalf of the woman who is now my boss" after Mr. Clinton admitted he had lied about his relationship with Lewinsky.

Nobody would know who Hillary is without Bill. She has been riding his coat tails for decades.

Exactly. Right for her country? Who the hell would have cared if the President got divorced? Like that would have happened while he was in office anyway.

She stayed with him because of her own ambitions and nothing more.

And she demonized the women who accused Bill of rape. I wonder if she feels bad about it? Probably not. She was and is an opportunist and would sell her kids if meant she might gain political points.

Imagine actually buying and reading Hum A Wiener’s book. Lady, you’re not even yesterday’s news, you’re more like the day before yesterday’s news!

Not to mention keeping her out of the slammer.

I’m waiting for the Clintons to announce Chelsea is divorcing Mark and getting engaged to Huma.

after Mr. Clinton

Would that be disgraced former President Bill Clinton, who is (according to Nancy Pelosi), "impeached forever and can never remove that stain from his Presidency"?

That Bill Clinton?

Book soon to be found in the “two for a dollar” bin at walmart. And hummer will still make a couple million from the publisher right? Tax write off. “Gee, we thought everyone would want to read about her time with hildabeast and left turn willie.” Remember, she did marry tony the weiner. Common sense? MIA.

Liberal/Democrat/socialist chicks always stay with the criminal they marry. They can’t make it through life on their own and have no means of attracting attention except via their attachment to a powerful criminal.

I mean, I don’t think married people should divorce, but liberal chicks don’t care about fidelity, obviously: They care about status and control over others, they don’t stay in it because of their ethics. I doubt if Hilldog suffered at all during Bill’s fling in office. She already knew what she was dealing with. They are a team in perversion as well as crime.

Huma as well as Hillary back in the news.

Hmm...something’s afoot and it’s not pretty. Hillary wants to be back “in the game of politics” but not running for office. Whatever could this mean? VP under Harris??

After Hillary's disastrous performance on the Judiciary Committee the word went out: She is not recommended for future work in DC. She failed the DC Bar exam, she then fled to Arkansas, married Bill and passed, what I would think, would be an easier Bar exam.

Yup, she would not be where she is if not for him.

What I have always wondered is: What the hell did he see in her?

>>”right for herself, her family and her country”<<

Ugh, my gag reflex just went into overdrive. WHEN did the murderess EVER do anything that was right for the country?

Hillary lacked the courage to search for a more meaningful marital situation. She lacks the core family values of those willing to keep searching for a more promising spouse as many in the political sphere have. One should admit one’s mistakes and seek a better situation. Hillary can’t admit a mistake.

Yep that struck me too. How is it right for the country for Hillary to stay with Bill? What about feminist ideology, which among other things, tells women not to tolerate infidelity and other behavior from a husband?

No way. She is racist and would never take second place behind a black.
