78. We do not know if they did quietly go to Weiner when the issue started

Mon Jan 9, 2012, 08:59 PM

Jan 2012

and either he lied to them, as he did to the public, so they did not know it was all true. We also do not know if they advised him to resign and he opted not to. The fact is that he was not making really good decisions then - from sending it out in the first place - to saying "he didn't know" if it was him etc.

Weiner unfortunately gave Breitbart a story which the left called a lie - that proved to be true. Given that every other Breitbart story was proven to have been distorted, this is a real break for him.
