Bill and Hillary Clinton not speaking after blow-up over memoir, author says
Fox News ^ | October 13, 2017

Posted on 10/13/2017 6:33:56 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Bill and Hillary Clinton are no longer speaking to one another after a fight over edits to the former Democratic presidential nominee’s campaign memoir, according to a controversial author and journalist who has covered the Clintons for years.

Ed Klein, who says he has reliable sources close to the former first family, told "Fox & Friends" on Friday that former President Bill Clinton threw a manuscript of Hillary's new book, “What Happened,” in the trash after she ignored his advice not to publish it. The book recounts her experience throughout the 2016 presidential election.

“He told her she looked angry and out of touch,” Klein told “Fox & Friends," claiming Bill was giving Hillary constructive criticism and trying to help to edit, but “she didn’t listen to him.”

“He tried to edit it and she would have nothing to do with it,” Klein said.

When asked for comment, Clinton representatives sharply disputed Klein's reporting.

Hillary was jealous of Bill because Harvey Weinstein never grabbed HER shmekel.

Yep. Bill knows his stuff about how to handle people. He was 100% dead on about this book. The only thing saving HRC is the media carrying water for her. If she was GOP she would come across as a crackpot sore loser.

He’s smart and he understands the game.

He puts up with Hillary because she provided cover for all his rapes and she knows where the bodies are buried - literally. But he knows she would be nowhere without him also.

Especially when you have a propagandist media that covers up for liberal sexual preditors fawning over your every move and a Senate that wouldn't do its job.

For such a wonderful politician he never got over 50% of the vote. I think he is gifted in politics and has a keen intellect but lots of his political brilliance was because he was given a pass.

His actions or lack there of led to two big holes in the middle of Manhattan.

Bill on his own, no longer muzzled by his wife's political campaigns, could be the most effective spokesman the Democrats have.

Why would he bother on more than an occasional basis? He's got what he wants--money, fame, women.

Also, notice how her handlers pin her hands behind her back as if she’s about to be handcuffed.

With your hands behind your back, you are forced to stand erect (except at parade rest). Your shoulders lock your arms, thus making it easier to carry a person.

Watch the clip and you'll see that her hands come in front of her body and she drops like a bag of jello. If her hands would have stayed behind, they could have almost walked her into the van.

Has any reporter anywhere ever asked the Clinton handlers/spokespeople what happened in this video? It is VERY wierd.

Can you imagine the fuss if Trump had collapsed in a similar way?

Isn’t it also true she lost a shoe and it had to be retrieved. It makes sense how it came off seeing that.

From Kurt Schlicter's most recent column:

"In her defense, she was probably thinking, 'I was married to Bill. This guy’s an amateur.' "

IMO: She only rode his coat tails knowing he was going to the White House, he knew what she was, she knew what he was and now that there is NO hope for her ever to be in the White House again in her lifetime, she has no use for him and Bill doesn’t want her to ruin what ‘liddle’ he has left of legacy he has left, about the same as Obama, hardly anything...

Democrats motto: “Drag a twenty dollar bill through a trailer park and see what you get”...

“Say what you want about Bill’s political beliefs but I don’t believe there has been a better politician in my lifetime.

I think he’s a sleaze and wrong on issues but the man is one of the best at what he does.”

He was a masterful politician....sort of a Jimmy Swaggert southern bull shitter type. Wrong in so many ways but light years better than Obama and what Hillary would have been.

I think Donald is his equal or better and if he had the media ion his side Katy bar the door.

Ed Klein is just reporting on rumors.

By the time they reach him they've been exaggerated and blown out of proportion.

Sort of like what happens with CNN and the White House nowadays.

I wouldn't be surprised if Bill hated the book and if he and Hillary weren't talking much nowadays, but it may not be as compact a story as he tells it.

Maybe they haven't been communicating much for months -- even years.

'"Ed is a sad man," Hillary Clinton's spokesman Nick Merrill told Fox News on Friday. "And a pathetic liar," Bill Clinton press secretary Angel Urena added in an email to Fox News.'

In contrast to Bill and Hillary, who are very good at it.

I can hear it now. “Hillary, how is it you seem to attract serial sexual offenders? You married one and took money from another?

No reporter has ever asked about it, because it never happened.

Now move along.

Reporters report everything.
If they don't report something it never happened.
If they do report something, you can be sure it happened
(even if they have to make it happen themselves)

Regardless of all of her nonsensical political rhetoric, Hillary Clintoonie is in this for Hillary Clintoonie. She couldn’t care less about everyone else.

She threw practically every one of their friends, allies and supporters under the bus. Bill has likely been catching hell from them.

I love that guy coming in from the right, fast, looking all around, and sticks his right hand out to block the view.

I’d like to see a few more seconds of him.
