Newsweek: Devoted Abedin Almost Cried Upon Learning Clinton Had to Carry Her Own Bag Upstairs

Hillary Clinton’s closest aide Huma Abedin is so devoted to her boss that she almost sobbed upon learning Clinton had to carry her own bag, a Newsweek profile revealed Thursday.

“Abedin took her duties so seriously, the source recalled, that when she learned that Clinton had once carried her own bag up a flight of stairs in her aide’s absence, Abedin nearly burst into tears,” Newsweek reported.

The same source said that Clinton once snapped her fingers and said “Gum” to Abedin.

“A lot of times, Hillary would snap her fingers and go, ‘Gum.’ And Huma would fetch it,” the source said.

Although Abedin no longer totes her boss’s bags around, she still carries Clinton’s infamous cell phone and serves her boss coffee and Mexican food.

During her 20 years by Clinton’s side, she has achieved increasing responsibility to the point where Clinton supporters go to Abedin rather than “wast[ing] time trying to find Clinton directly.”

“I only would go to Huma. It’s like talking to Clinton,” investor Alan Patricof told Newsweek.

As a result, Abedin has gained a reputation as a “myth” and a “mini-Clinton.” According to Newsweek, “even ex-Clinton aides with no role in the campaign quake at the mention of her name.”

She has adopted her boss’s icy exterior, “disingenuously” telling reporters that she hadn’t looked at thousands of her emails that were posted online as a result of Clinton’s email scandal.

Abedin has also developed a Clinton-like obsession with “optics,” especially after her husband Anthony Weiner was caught in two sexting scandals, once in 2011 and again during his run for New York City mayor in 2013.

She rarely shares details about her job, acutely aware of the consequences of slipping up.

“Abedin has submitted to few interviews and has never uttered a substantive word about her job. As campaign co-chair, she speaks only at closed or carefully vetted events,” Newsweek wrote. “From the wounded master who taught her everything she knows, she has learned that to be candid is to be crucified.”

Well, ain't love (or something) grand?

Huma Abedin Nearly Cried Because Hillary Was Forced To Carry Her Own Bag

Posted By Chuck Ross On 1:54 PM 04/28/2016 In | No Comments

Hillary Clinton’s right hand woman, Huma Abedin, nearly cried after she learned that her boss was forced to carry her own bag up a flight of stairs.

That’s according to Newsweek, which is out with a new profile of Abedin, who is often seen by Clinton’s side on the campaign trail and is one of the aides embroiled in the Clinton email server scandal.

Abedin, who is married to disgraced former Rep. Anthony Weiner, has worked for Clinton since 1996.

And she has always taken her job as Clinton’s “body woman” seriously, according to a Newsweek source.

“Abedin took her duties so seriously, the source recalled, that when she learned that Clinton had once carried her own bag up a flight of stairs in her aide’s absence, Abedin nearly burst into tears,” the magazine reported.

The source also recalled that Clinton would often snap her fingers at Abedin requesting items from her loyal aide.

“A lot of times, Hillary would snap her fingers and go, ‘Gum.’ And Huma would fetch it,” Newsweek’s source said.

Abedin is often seen at Clinton’s side. She appears in the background of campaign trail footage buying lunch and coffee for her boss. At the State Department, Abedin managed Clinton’s schedule, managed access to her boss, and carried her personal belongings, including Clinton’s infamous Blackberry.

Abedin made her devotion to Clinton clear in a rare interview she conducted earlier this month.

“You know these things that happen in your life that just stick?” Abedin said of the first time she met the then-first lady in 1996. “That she walked by and she shook my hand and our eyes connected and I just remember having this moment where I thought ‘wow, this is amazing.'” (RELATED: ‘Hooked On Hillary’: Huma Abedin Talks About Her ‘Fangirl Moment’ With Clinton)

“And it’s funny, and she would probably be so annoyed that I say this, but I remember thinking ‘Oh my God, she’s so beautiful and she’s so little!'” Abedin added in the interview.

[dcquiz] A new book out this week by New York Times reporter Mark Landler shows just how consumed Abedin is with all things Clinton.

“At a meeting early in 2009 in the State Department, Abedin, who had the title of deputy chief of staff, was going through a list of requests from ‘the president.’ When the others in the room looked at her puzzled, she clarified, ‘Not President Obama. Our president. Bill Clinton,'” Landler reported in his book, “Alter Egos.”

“It was a jarring gaffe, evidence of just how deep and tangled those ties were,” Landler added.

Hopefully her boss (lover?) will soon be carrying her own bag in to Leavenworth.

I wodner if Huma cried as much over the women and children being gang raped by muslism in germany, Sweden, and other countries that they are 'fleeing to'- or is carrying one's own bag the only thing that moves her to tears?
