Huma Abedin Opens Up About Her Life And Marriage In 'Both/And' Memoir

[raydraiz]

Huma turned out to be the complete opposite of what I thought she would be like. A pleasant surprise and I’m a Republican.

[chiangsim]

Just finished reading her book. PLEASE read it. It's just so insightful. Very, very well written, and offers great insight in issues of identity, love, loyalty, and political cultural landscape. Also gave us a greater understanding of who or what Hilary Clinton is about. Honestly, such a great book, and such a courageous woman who was willing to share her painful truths so that we could benefit from her incredible journey. Please read, it's worth your time.

Huma, it was not yours, nor Anthony’s fault that Senator Clinton didn’t win. It pains me to hear you say it and I’m sure, most likely nothing anymore can say would change that. I wish you success and piece.

What an astounding, articulate, elegant and brilliant person. What a
great example to us all about objectivity, reflection, responsibility
and reciprocity. Further, she illuminates compulsive behavioral
reenactment, which was identified by Freud, then Bessel van der Kolk,
and since around 2000 has been internationally accepted as part of
Trauma theory. What a beautiful, courageous heart ...

[GenRN]

What a classy, smart, beautiful woman. Huma, you are an inspiration to many! Way to keep your head up and endure a humiliating and stressful situation.

[AllieSheffield]

Huma you are strong, smart, intelligent and beautiful. Proud of woman like you. ✊🏻✌🏻

[dnwanja]

Amaaazing interview. Kudos Huma for being open and responding with such conviction. Your book is purely amazing!! 👏🏽

[AnyoneCanSee]

She was 34 when she married. Why are they repeatedly saying she was "so young?"

[BigDanOz]

Fantastic interview.. thank you for that

[joesalazar]

My book just arrived and looking forward to reading. Impressive lady!

[sidneyonukwube]

She's just trying to sell her memoir and tell her story and there's nothing wrong with that. I'm going to read it beginning to end.

[kesart]

The main "takeaway" for me is that even incredibly intelligent, highly educated, articulate, privileged, beautiful women can be gulled by deceitful, mendacious, execrable yobos; so ww must teach our daughters and granddaughters well and love them always, through thick and thin.

Second "takeaway": No matter how decent the person and how terrible the suffering they had to endure, a segment of the population will find that suffering as material to exploit for cheap political points.

Thank the Lord for the internet and the various forums that it provides that allow those truly deficient in basic humanity to parade their true nastiness openly and shamelessly in "comments sections."

[dwr]

I'd never heard her speak before, but i always thought very highly of her.

[jerryhalma]

Does any one think that she is not a very smart woman?

[birgitkudsk]

Pls. make this host stop talking and let the guest say the most. Let the guest be in focus!

[ChristianCentury]

Huma Abadin is a VERY BEAUTIFUL WOMAN! She and her daughter did not deserve the betrayal of her husband! I don't understand the behavior of Anthony Weiner! He is a smart, articulate, handsome man who had a great wife and a daughter to raise! In addition, he had a great career opportunity in the House! Sadly, tragically, he destroyed himself like Governor Eliot Spitzer, who had the potential to become a serious Presidental candidate! Anthony Weiner was his own worst enemy!

[m.asalam]

Huma had incredible interviews, She is smart and honestly wrote her experience in her book so this book will be helpful to get the information about White House President Clinton and of course her boss Hillary Clinton, Huma should run for the office good luck her new book.

[giesyw]

How's her Husband doing? When did he get out of the slammer?

[lydialandwell]

I wonder what she thinks of the current Foreign policy regarding Afgan women.

[tjmaxx]

Huma should run for public office watching all her interviews, what a journey with Hilary, HW needs to make a movie on her book! She is very intelligent, elegant and very high likability factor, democratic needs to get her to run for office !
