This is the cherry on top of the whipped cream on top of the delicious triple chocolate sundae, people.
The big story lately has been all the John Podesta emails that WikiLeaks gift-wrapped to the world to show how terrible the Clinton campaign is. And it turns out that the Clintons themselves are not taking these revelations very well.
Pass the popcorn, this is gonna be FUN.
According to this, Hillary is straight-up “pissed,” Chelsea is livid, and Bill is “having a hard time” – especially since focus on Donald Trump’s crass remarks have re-opened talk about Bill’s own mistreatment of women and how Hillary let him get away with it time and time again.
Politico looked into how Hillary, Bill and Chelsea Clinton were faring as more gossip and dirty laundry spills out and the short answer, according to sources, is not well.
The former president is ‘having a hard time,’ between the leaks and Donald Trump dredging up his past scandals, the former first daughter is livid and the Democratic nominee is straight up ‘p***ed’ that she’s having to deal with these daily mini-scandals in the final month of her White House run.
What? You mean that Hillary doesn’t like dealing with scandals? I thought she LOVE being plagued by scandals. A Clinton without a scandal is like a fish without a water tank.
And it’s not just the Clintons who are SAAAAAAAAD that the way they REALLY feel about people is being exposed. Even their loyal donors are upset –
Donors and friends are furious too at both the leaks and the Trump campaign’s tactics.
‘This is making me tear up, it’s so infuriating and disgusting,’ one Clinton aide wrote in an email during the last presidential debate. ‘This is not our country.’
Longtime Clinton fundraiser Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild was reportedly furious when she read an unflattering email about her written by Neera Tanden, the president and CEO of the Center for American Progress, the think tank started by Podesta before he joined on at the campaign.
‘I have to [see] that crazy Lady De Rothschild person,’ Tanden had written in an email to Podesta, her old boss in April 2015.
The next month, Rothschild hosted a $100,000 her ticket dinner to raise money for the former secretary of state.
For Chelsea’s part, she wasn’t pleased that Doug Band – a former aide of Bill’s – called her a “spoiled brat,” among other things –
She and one of her father’s former top aides, Doug Band, didn’t always see eye to eye, and when she decided to step into a full-time role at the Clinton Foundation she became suspicious of some of Band’s business dealings.
He pushed back, suggesting she was meddling because she had nothing better to do.
‘She is acting like a spoiled brat kid who has nothing else to do but create issues to justify what she’s doing because she, as she has said, hasn’t found her way and has a lack of focus in life,’ Band wrote in a November 2011 email to Podesta and Cheryl Mills, Hillary Clinton’s chief of staff at the State Department.
In another correspondence, Band suggested that a high-ranking Clinton Foundation staffer was contemplating suicide because of ‘all of this office crap with wjc and cvc,’ he wrote using the initials of Bill and Chelsea Clinton.
Band suggested in the email that Chelsea Clinton was ‘more concerned’ with the bad press his firm, Teneo, was receiving than her role in stressing out Clinton Foundation staffers.
Chelsea Clinton, according to Politico’s reporting, is ‘very focused’ on the email hack and was livid at Band for calling her a ‘spoiled brat kid.’
She was also ‘hurt’ that Podesta didn’t defend her when Band called her names, according to Politico.
Well, when you get a six-figure job at NBC, but have to give it up because you suck at it – and THEN you get a super-expensive penthouse in New York and are just working for your family’s “charitable” foundation, what are people supposed to think?
Of course, this bit about Bill Clinton takes the cake. I have little doubt that NBC and the Washington Post thought they were helping Team Clinton when they released those tapes of Donald Trump talking about assaulting women, but they clearly didn’t think about how it would give the anti-Clinton side license to bring up Bill’s own sexual indiscretions. I guess they keep forgetting how much of a horndog Bill really is –
Bill Clinton’s big reason for being upset, besides the Wikileaks emails plaguing his wife’s campaign daily, is that Republican nominee Donald Trump has been using the ex-president’s sexual indiscretions as a way to downplay his own accusers claims that they were pawed, groped and kissed by the billionaire over the years and that he didn’t ask permission.
Trump’s flair for the dramatic, and his experience in reality TV, was on full display last Sunday in St. Louis when he paraded out three Clinton accusers – Paula Jones, Juanita Broaddrick and Kathleen Willey – along with Kathy Sheton, who was 12-years-old when she was raped and Hillary Clinton, then a public defender, orchestrated a plea deal for the man accused.
The former president, watching his wife get tarred and feathered for his own sins, was reportedly enraged according to Politico when he saw Trump bring out the accusers. The Trump campaign had toyed with putting them in the family box, until debate organizers caught wind of the plan and quashed it.
This should go without saying, but Bill Clinton being uncomfortable about his own assaults on women is the least that such a disgusting pervert deserves. It might be too-little-too-late, but he deserves every MINUTE of disdain coming his way over this. Same with Hillary Clinton. She enabled his actions and she cowed his victims into silence, so this ABSOLUTELY impacts her.
The media may want to focus attention elsewhere and make it look like everything is hunky-dory in ClintonLand, but the reality is very different. And it couldn’t have happened to a more dishonest and criminal family.
