HUMA VS. THE “NIGHT STALKERS”
After a stunning election loss, the knives appear to be out in Clintonworld.
"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. He was irked, in particular, at Abedin’s
seemingly superfluous breach of decorum during a post-election event. On the
day after Hillary Clinton’s stunning loss to Donald Trump, this person
said, Abedin appeared within the rope line while Clinton greeted her morose
and woebegone supporters. “You’re staff, O.K.?” this adviser continued.
“Staff is staff. You’re not a principal.” (A spokesperson for the Clinton
campaign notes that Abedin was seated alongside the rest of the campaign’s
senior leadership team that morning. Abedin declined an interview request.)
In the bizarre month since Clinton’s loss, few people besides the candidate
herself have seen their fortunes overturned as significantly as has Abedin,
40, the glamorous and charismatic former vice-chair of the campaign. For
two decades, Abedin has been a fixture inside Clinton’s inner circle; she
began her career as a college-aged White House intern and rose to become
Clinton’s deputy chief of staff at the State Department. As a former
adviser to Bill Clinton once put it to me, over time Abedin morphed into “a
mini Hillary” herself. She wasn’t merely an aide, but rather an
amalgamation of adviser, best friend, confidante, and perhaps even surrogate
daughter. Abedin “inspires loyalty, and she’s loyal back,” one Clinton
aide told Amy Chozick in her widely read dissection of Clintonworld for The
New York Times Magazine, in 2014.
