Wikileaks has dropped another Hillary Clinton email gem, where the Democratic presidential hopeful’s aides struggle to reach her during a work day and volunteer campaign chairman John Podesta to “sober her up some.”
An Aug. 2015 email from communications aide Jennifer Palmieri instructs Podesta to locate and sober Hillary up so that she can return or respond to documents that were emailed to her hours before.
“I think you should call her and sober her up some,” Palmieri said.
The Wikileaks email chain between Palmieri and Podesta shows that Clinton was not reachable throughout the entire afternoon on Aug 8.
A report of the “Sober Up” email in Wmd.com framed the Podesta-related email in a more chronic light:
“Also in February 2015, New York Times reporter Amy Chozick told ABC News she was surprised to discover that Hillary likes to drink while campaigning.
“She likes to drink,” Chozick explained. “We were on the campaign trail in 2008 and the press thought she was just taking shots to pander to voters in Pennsylvania. Um, no.”
And on Oct. 9, 2016, Chozick tweeted: “‘We need to take off so we can have some drinks served,’ Hillary says on her campaign plane.”
