Trump Calls Anthony Weiner a 'Sleazebag' and 'Perv' at Massachusetts Event
Trump made the remarks at an event in Massachusetts.
-- At a Massachusetts fundraiser Friday night, Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump continued his attacks on Democrat Hillary Clinton saying the former Secretary of State has “some very big problems” with her email server.
However, the real estate mogul took things a step further attacking longtime Clinton aide Huma Abedin and her husband, former Congressman Anthony Weiner (D-NY) calling him a “perv."
“Who is Huma married to?,” Trump asked. “One of the great sleazebags of our time. Anthony Weiner.”
Weiner resigned his Congressional seat in 2011, after it was discovered the Democrat took shirtless photos of himself and shared them with women online.
Clinton rep Nick Merrill released a statement saying in part “Donald Trump has spent the summer saying offensive things about women, but there is no place for patently false, personal attacks towards a staff member. He should be ashamed of himself…it’s embarrassing to watch frankly.”
