Ex-campaign manager: Clinton ‘overruled’ firing staffer accused of harassment
 [POLITICO] Perennial Presidential Campaigner Hillary Crooked HillaryClinton ... former first lady, former secretary of state, former presidential candidate, Conqueror of Benghazi, Heroine of Tuzla, formerly described by her supporters as the smartest woman in the world,usually described by the rest of us as The Thing That Wouldn't Go Away... personally "overruled" a recommendation that she fire a top campaign staffer accused of sexual harassment in 2008, her campaign manager at the time said Monday. Patti Solis Doyle, who headed Clinton's presidential bid when a young female staffer accused senior adviser Burns Strider of repeatedly sexually harassing her, told CNN she urged Clinton to dismiss Strider, but the Democratic candidate rejected the recommendation. "I was overruled," Solis Doyle said in her first public remarks since news of the harassment controversy was reported by The New York Times  ...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... on Friday. Strider, according to the Times, was kept on the campaign at Clinton's behest despite the allegations of misconduct. The Clinton faith adviser was docked several weeks' pay and told to undergo counseling in response, the Times reports. Strider went on to lead an independent organization that backed Clinton's candidacy in 2016. Posted by: Fred 2018-01-30 |
