State Department officials said the student approached Clinton afterward and told her he had meant to ask what Obama, not Bill Clinton, thought about the Chinese loan. It was unclear whether the French-speaking student or translator had erred.
Since his presidency, Bill Clinton has spoken out about international financial and development aid to poor countries, one focus of his foundation's Clinton Global Initiative, making his opinion of interest abroad. But the stage in Kinshasa was his wife's, and she reacted instantly to a suggestion that he shared it.
She had been sidelined for weeks after she fell on her way to the White House in June and fractured her elbow, requiring surgery. Her aides acknowledged her frustrations stemming from the injury, which made her miss out on going to Russia with Obama and attending several European conferences.
But her aides and those in the White House have denied any rift or attempt to marginalize her.
LOL.
Her elbow got hurt and it’s made her grumpy.
“But the stage in Kinshasa was his wife’s, and she reacted instantly to a suggestion that he shared it.”
If I remember correctly, and I do, didn’t she share the presidency with Billy Boy? I distinctly remember her calling his presidency thier “co-presidency”. Hey Hill, what’s fair is fair. Billy is now your “co-SOS”, you trend-setter, you!
