Leave it to longtime aide Huma Abedin to put a positive spin on Hillary Clinton’s email controversy.
In what may be a first, Abedin commented on the email “fiasco” during an interview on the “Call Your Girlfriend” podcast, The Daily Caller reported.
Abedin currently serves as vice chair of Clinton’s presidential campaign and her close relationship with Clinton dates back to 1996, when she first started working for the then-first lady as a fresh-faced 19-year-old intern from George Washington University.
The loyal aide confessed in the interview that she has yet to read the emails she exchanged with Clinton that have been released to the public, saying she is “mortified” by what may be in them.
“It’s terrifying,” Abedin said.
“It’s something I can’t really think about because I can’t even imagine what’s in those emails,” Abedin said. “But I’m sure I would be — I would probably be mortified. I have no idea. I haven’t read any of them.”
The wife of disgraced former Congressman Anthony Weiner tried to convince listeners the release of Clinton’s emails has resulted in more votes because it exposes her boss as “a warm, caring, thoughtful person.”
Yes, that Hillary Clinton.
“I think the story…I found most interesting was a woman, and I don’t remember any of the details, but a woman who said she didn’t support Hillary until she read all of her emails,” Abedin said.
“And then she saw what a warm, caring, thoughtful, determined person she was,” she added. “And I don’t know if it was that she flipped or she just didn’t support her before, whatever it was.”
