Donald Trump Floats Conspiracy Theory That Huma Abedin Has Terrorist Ties

Source: Huffington Post

Donald Trump suggested in an interview Monday that top Hillary Clinton aide Huma Abedin may have ties to terrorism.

Former Rep. Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.), Abedin’s husband, was caught in yet another sexting scandal this week. Abedin announced in a statement the couple was separating. On Monday, Trump called Weiner a “pervert” and “a very sick guy,” but he also went after other members of Abedin’s family. From his interview with KIRO’s Dori Monson:

"You know, by the way, take a look at where she worked, by the way, and take a look at where her mother worked and works. You take a look at the whole event.

But in the case of Anthony Weiner, she’s married to a guy that is uncontrolled and uncontrollable. He’s a sick person. And she has access to classified information. Huma Abedin has access to classified information. How Hillary got away with that one, nobody will ever know. But to think that it’s very likely that much of this information Anthony Weiner would know about. And I think it’s something that was terrible."

When is someone going to sue this mofo into the ground for defamation, liable, slander and a long laundry list of issues stemming from his lack to STFU.

It is sickening how he can get away with making up unsubstantiated stories that Bubba Goober and the rest DT's followers with an IQ below room temperature will believe to be the truth because Lord Donald said it.

He is not a legitimate and registered comedian, although clown is apparent, to be making statement of this nature is a "serious" setting.


Please someone call 800-lawyer and get this idiot put away.

I'm sure he knows our State Representative, who undoubtedly knows our U.S. Representative, who obviously knows our Senators, who of course know Hillary from her time in the Senate.

Holy Moly, I must be getting access to classified info as well, with only four degrees of separation. Call the tRumphmeister and stop the presses!!

This is pure bs, totally a work of fiction from his diseased mind. There's not even one shred of evidence that Huma shared any information with him, much less of the classified version. If there was, drumpf would have trumpeted this to the world. Instead with it's just "likely" and "some have questioned" he created this fable out of thin air, so disgusting.

Worst person EVER!
