Hillary Clinton’s campaign has enough headaches. Now she’s having to deal with news that Huma Abedin, her longtime aide, is separating from sexting husband Anthony Weiner.

As The New York Times said:

“It was reported that Mr. Weiner had exchanged suggestive images and messages with a woman while the couple’s young child was beside him.

“The separation was announced after Mr. Weiner’s online exchanges with women had been a source of tension within Mrs. Clinton’s presidential campaign. Mr. Weiner resigned from Congress in 2011 after revelations that he had sent lewd images of himself to women on social media. The couple’s marital problems worsened after the release in May of a documentary about the scandal that engulfed Mr. Weiner’s campaign for mayor in 2013.”

Donald Trump noted this, of course.

“Huma is making a very wise decision,” he said in a statement. “I know Anthony Weiner well, and she will be far better off without him.

“I only worry for the country in that Hillary Clinton was careless and negligent in allowing Weiner to have such close proximity to highly classified information. Who knows what he learned and who he told? It’s just another example of Hillary Clinton’s bad judgment. It is possible that our country and its security have been greatly compromised by this.”
