HE’S NOT ALONE: “’Maybe I’m just pissed off, but I really don’t give a shit about what happens to Huma to be honest with you,’ one close adviser to Hillary Clinton told me recently.”

By the way, when Vanity Fair(!) begins an article about the Clintons and their inner circle with a lede like that, you know how angry they are with Hillary – and her inner circle. Speaking of which:

But amid Clinton’s stunning post-election hangover, some inside the inner circle wonder if Abedin became overwhelmed by the attention, and shut too many people out. “She was enjoying the red carpet and enjoying the photo spreads much too much in my opinion,” one Clinton insider told me. “She enjoyed being a celebrity too much.” The close Clinton adviser elaborated that Abedin and the other tight-knit circle of people may have suffocated Clinton, preventing the campaign from taking in outside counsel. “The real anger is toward Hillary’s inner circle,” the Clinton insider told me. “They reinforced all the bad habits.” For instance, the suggestion had been made that Clinton should show her gregarious side, by, for instance, appearing more often on The View. (She appeared once, but Bernie Sanders, her rival for the nomination, appeared a handful of times.)

Why, it’s almost as if Hillary is a stunningly terrible retail politician or something.
