Podesta: Calling Chelsea ‘Not Smart’ Is An ‘Understatement’

Democratic nominee Hillary Clintons campaign chairman John Podesta said it was a major understatement when an important Clinton Foundation figure described Chelsea Clinton as not smart, a newly-leaked email reveals.
The 2012 email is from the latest batch of leaked communications put out by the online hacktivist group Wikileaks. In the email, Podesta responds to Doug Band, a former Bill Clinton assistant who helped found the Clinton Global Initiative.
Band was irate because Chelsea had apparently launched an internal investigation of the Clinton Foundations finances, and then told one of former President George W. Bushs twin daughters about it. The information had then made its way to a Republican operative. (RELATED: Chelsea Launched Internal Investigation Of Clinton Foundation)
I have heard more and more chatter of [Chelsea] and bari talking about lots of what is going on internally to people, Band complains in the exchange. Not smart.
Podestas response is brief but leaves his thoughts very clear.
You are perfecting your skills for understatement, he says.

I agree. This is about exposing illegal activity, not book smarts.

"Chelsea had apparently launched an internal investigation of the Clinton Foundations finances,"
She was being paid a salary in excess of 600K a year by the foundation and she still thought it was a legitimate charitable foundation? Really? Really? Yeah, "not smart" is a major understatement.

So far it’s the only thing Poindexter and I can agree on.

I’d say she was quite smart. After all, who would know better of what her parents are capable? Telling one of the Bush twins was simply taking out a life insurance policy.

Salary? What? I thought the ‘hole’ cabal only wanted expenses and the rest was out of the goodeness of their..............oh, “goodness”. Sorry.

I get the impression that this isn't the IQ version of not smart. It is the "Fredo, you broke my heart" version of not smart. But it sounds like she is fitting into the family business now without having to have a horrible fishing accident.

The problem was they didn't _do_ anything about it.
So my argument is that Chelsea worked with a geeky Stanford friend to do the email hack...

“without having to have a horrible fishing accident. “ I suppose this has nothing to do with the horrible canoe accidents that many FReepers have dealt with? LOL!

I think the beast or Willy put her up to it to keep tabs on things. I do believe she would be dumb enough to blab it to a bush.

Chelsea ain't that bright. Probably nice enough but if it weren't for her two criminal parents she'd probably be waiting tables in Arkansas.
Too bad. Waiting on tables is an honest occupation.

So, which Republican operative fed this info back to Podesta? Obviously, it didnt get into the news and it might be curious just how many Republicans are connected to the Clinton Foundation. The Uniparty - Republicrats & Demopublicans...
