Ex-U.S. Congressman Weiner pleads guilty in teen 'sexting' case

[millefleur 5,035]

The thing that I find utterly bizarre about the whole Huma/Weiner relationship is the fact that they allowed a documentary to be made about the scandals.  That's just a level of voyeurism or attention-seeking that is beyond my understanding.

According to that link:

 

Quote

After the film was released, Weiner claimed that "Kriegman had assured him verbally and in emails that he would not use Abedin in the film without her consent", and that Abedin never granted permission for Kriegman to use the footage. When asked if he will sue the filmmakers, Weiner didn't give a definitive answer. The filmmakers disputed that any agreement had been breached, and said they "had consent from everyone who appears in the film''.

 

Which leads to this article on the dispute, though I don't know if there was any litigation. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/08/18/magazine/anthony-weiner-says-his-wife-never-agreed-to-that-documentary.html?_r=0 Seemed to be in dispute that she was a willing participant. Of course it makes sense that an individual such as himself would want to be in the spotlight (and his pal who made the film) and wouldn't care about her rights on the subject..

I see. Thanks for putting it into context. I'm glad she can finally move on.

Women marry abusive men all the time. They also marry idiots, perverts, egoists, narcissists, and get themselves trapped in bad relationships.

If you're going to consider they married for convenience with no evidence to that effect, one should also consider that she was duped into falling in love, got in far too deep, and struggled to stay with him out of 'necessity'.

 

Because one thing is for darn sure... as a woman I'd never get anywhere near a man that looked like that, let alone make a baby with him for convenience.

 

Can we at least be happy for once that a woman is freeing herself and her child from an abusive disgusting wretch? And maybe some day she'll be better off for it regarding other associations.

If she can hang out with the Clintons of all people, I doubt she's that naive. But the woman-is-a-victim story is great for news.

Personally I think they were trying to create the Clinton's Mark II.  Both men in the relationship were scum, but Weiner had the disadvantage of his last name and his predilection for young girls whereas Bill at least had them a bit older.

Bill taught Trump where to grab them.

Except when he was on those flights with Jeffery Epstein to his pedo island.
