Hillary Clinton’s security detail laughed when she broke her elbow
nypost ^ | 10-2016

Hillary Clinton’s security detail hated her so much that they privately snickered after she accidentally fell and broke her arm when she was secretary of state in 2009, one of her former guards told the Post.

Clinton, then 61, was in the State Department basement on her way to meet President Obama when she took a spill — and ended up in the hospital for an operation to repair her shattered right elbow.

“We sort of got the last laugh. It was kind of like payback: You’re treating us like s–t. Hey karma is a bitch! We were smiling to ourselves,” the agent told The Post on Wednesday.

But Clinton, who frequently behaved like a diva-in-chief, according to the agent, made it worse by pointing the finger at her detail for the mishap.

“She blamed us for breaking her elbow, saying it was our fault and we could have prevented that. She’s bad news,” the agent said.

The agent’s account backed up FBI documents released this week that showed Clinton’s protective detail despised her for treating them with contempt.

“When I first met her, we were given specific instructions: don’t look at her, don’t look at her general direction and if you need to talk to her, keep it short and stay out of her way,” the agent told The Post.

What I have heard: George W. Bush was great to work for, couldn’t have been more accommodating especially during the holidays. Obama’s not so much. Trump, even better than W.

I heard that Marine One used to be called “Broomstick One” when the Clintoons boarded the Chopper.

From my 2005 series (I think 30 episodes) of THE REAL HILLARY CLINTON. Hillary throws coffee in Marine’s face.

I know what its like to get a right broken elbow.... took me months just to recover the function of my arm and hand.

That said, given the way Hillary treated her own staff, my tears of sympathy for her are found wanting.

Remember when then-presidential candidate Kerry injured himself (skiing, I believe) and blamed his SS detail? These people are way beyond entitled. They DO think of themselves as royalty. Possibly divinity.

specific instructions: don’t look at her, don’t look at her general direction ...

Appropriate advice to advert one's eyes. Bear in mind she can take other forms.

I actually tried to sell an old broom on Ebay that was labeled BROOMSTICK ONE.

I believe that on the show “Arrested Development”, the two brothers are talking about the family’s need to economize and how their yacht “The Seaward” was no longer worth owning. There was disagreement on this point between the two men.

Just as their mother (a humorously nasty drunk) walks into the room, one brother says, “I won’t say anything more to you until “The Seaward” is gone.”

And the mother says, “I’m not going anywhere.”

It’s not a literary joke, it’s an auditory joke.

I have heard from many sources, that singer Diana Ross is the same way, and has been since the 60’s. You might expect Diva behavior from an entertainer who’s popularity allows her to live in a dream world, but not from the president of these United States.

I can imagine an Intern with a little backbone looking at Ms. Clinton and asking; “What do you mean, I am not supposed to be looking at you? It’s you I’m speaking to. Are you too good for the average voter to speak with you?”
Meanwhile, Hillary keeps staring at her cell phone, and pressing the red button for Security.

“What’s taking those lazy fkrs so fkg long?”

Yup, Hillary was insufferable.

I find it hard to understand with all that in view, how half the country persuaded themselves to vote for her.

I am glad though she will never be President. Karma is a b*tch, indeed.

The Queen of England doesn’t even act this way.................

For the simple reason that the Queen of England is a decent human being, and not a hate-filled, power-mad, evil harpy like Shrillary.

How many drinks did she have in preparation for the fall?

That would be valid-laughable. If none, not so much; I once rolled an ankle stepping off a curb with my then three year old son in my arms. As I was crashing to the pavement I twisted to have him land on top of me. He laughed and said “Do ‘gain, daddy”.

I remember there being stories in 2015 that many in the secret service were desperate to be On Trump’s detail as they had so much love and admiration for them and he always treated them with respect and decency.

Those who have to guard the She Devil certainly drew the short straw

SS Agents consider guarding Hillary as punishment. I know.

Right; the “don’t look at me” thing was documented in “Unlimited Access,” by FBI Agent Gary Aldrich.
