Clinton advisers point fingers at Huma Abedin, inner circle for loss
NY Post ^ | December 18, 2016 | Fox

While many of Hillary Clinton’s top advisers have focused their post-presidential election fury on blaming alleged Russian interference and FBI Director James Comey for Clinton’s loss, some in the so-called “Hillaryland” orbit are looking inward, including pointing fingers at Clinton’s most-trusted aide: Huma Abedin.

“The real anger is toward Hillary’s inner circle,” a Clinton insider told Vanity Fair for a Wednesday feature on Abedin. “They reinforced all the bad habits.”

One of the most important people in that “inner circle” was Abedin, 40, who has been by Clinton’s side since she was a White House intern during President Bill Clinton’s tenure. The email trove hacked from Clinton Campaign Chairman John Podesta and posted on WikiLeaks shows Abedin, the estranged wife of disgraced ex-Congressman Anthony Weiner, as an important resource for the campaign. The vice chair of the Clinton campaign, Abedin offered guidance on Clinton’s probable thoughts regarding upcoming events, meetings and calls before the requests ever made it to the Democratic presidential candidate. While her fingerprints don’t often appear on policy issues, she weighed in with authority on most other matters.

Clinton was known to keep an extremely small and tight-knit group around her, and, indeed, during the 2016 primary and presidential campaign, the core group – including Campaign Manager Robbie Mook, Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri, adviser Cheryl Mills, Podesta and Abedin – never changed.

I love the smell of a Democrat circular firing squad.

After 20 years under da boss, under da bus might not seem so bad to Huma.

The Former Twelfth Lady has *never*,in her *entire* life,looked in the mirror.

And ten bucks says that she'll write a book which will prove that she *still* hadn't done so.

What a bunch of petulant children. Blame this one, blame that one, everything but the truly vile candidate and her own tower of lies, treasonous acts, and arrogant attitude.

Huma Abedin caused Hillary to lose the POTUS election to Trump? I thought John Podesta did that [as well as Hillary's corruption and deceit].

"Check her Muslim Brotherhood affiliations....."

Per my complete post # 48 up thread.....I'm quite aware of her MOTHER'S affiliations...and I have a probably well-grounded sixth sense that she was not only ambitious...and/or naive...and/or dumb enough to be used and abused by her pervert husband and her lying, cheating employer, Hillary, but that she was and is continually mentally abused by her family because she did the unthinkable and unforgivable act of heresy by marrying a Jew.

There is no evidence that she was naive,dumb,or used by her pervert husband and lying employer.

She is an agent of the M.B, and practices Taqiyya (taqiya, taqiyah, taqiyyah) is a form of Islamic deception. The Quran (16:106 and 3:28) allows Muslims to lie in order to protect themselves or to protect the Muslim community.

She’s hardly abused by anyone in her life, and now will not be the Valerie Jarrett to the failed Hillary.

Twenty years down the drain.

“It was Anthony Weiner.”

I submit that Weiner was a Trump mole.

This is nonsense. By the time that happened, voters had already factored in hillary’s emails in their decision. hillary lost because she spent her time in private fundraisers with high-end donors and leaning on celebs instead of issues to woo voters.

Hillary was the worst candidate ever. And she should leave Huma alone. In fact, she should send that cutie Huma over to my place. It’s time for her to switch teams.

Huma had to change her name from Ima after she met Wiener.

These other candidates I would have gladly voted for without holding my nose (like I did with Romney and McCain), but I do not think they would have won. They could not have withstood the slings and arrows as did our current standard bearer.

Trump deserves the kudos.

PE Trump not only withstood the slings and arrows. He picked them up, sharpened them, and sent them back with herculean force. Not one person on that first republican debate stage would have had the guts to do the same. They would have had one interview with a hostile and retreated to a corner curled up and cried for mommy. God sure gave us a great gift in this man.
