Edward Klein, who has written a number of books on the Clintons and the Kennedys, says former President Bill Clinton and his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, haven't been speaking for months after an argument over Hillary's post-election book.

Bill allegedly threw his wife's manuscript in the trash after she ignored his advice not to publish it, according Page Six.

Bill had previously marked up the manuscript with edits, but became enraged when Hillary refused to look at any of his notes.

"Before Hillary sent the manuscript to her publisher, she gave it to Bill to read, and he made major changes with a red pencil," said a source close to the Clinton family. "But she refused to even read his corrections, and he got so furious that he tossed the entire manuscript into the garbage."

The source added: "He told her the book made her look bewildered, angry and confused, and that those were poor qualities in a person who aspired to be a world leader."

The memoir, entitled "What Happened," recounts Hillary's thoughts and feelings during the 2016 presidential race, according to CNN. The former Democratic presidential candidate opens up about her personal life and tries to analyze her campaign to understand where she went wrong.

In the book, she takes aim at the public assumptions that her marriage is falling apart, writing that her relationship with Bill has "many, many more happy days than sad or angry ones."

But a close family friend says otherwise and claims the two haven't been on speaking terms since the book was published.

He hated the title because calling it 'What Happened' would only make people say, 'You lost,'" the source told Page Six. "He urged her to postpone the [publication] date and rewrite the book, but she yelled at him and said, The book is finished and thats how its going to be published."

The source said Bills criticism, as well as what Hillary views as a lack of sympathy, drove a wedge between them.

"They havent been speaking for months. Theyve been communicating through friends and lawyers," said the source.

In his upcoming book "All Out War: The Plot to Destroy Trump," Klein further details the animosity between the Clintons, saying Bill warned his wife a month in advance that she was losing and needed to do more if she wanted to win.

"She told him he was delusional," he writes.

This topic has nothing to do with Trump. Why are you immediately bringing that up as a distraction?

It's about a book that was released becausen she lost to Trump

Trump is relevant

I don't know if this is true. The bad thing is the I think it could be, due to Clinton's actions in the past, when it came to running her election. She has a core group of people that she listens too while shutting everyone else up. It bit her in the ass when she was facing Obama, and it bit the ass this time.

People on the ground told here to go , she just over looked them. Now the world is going to hell in a hand basket.

I mean, if you look through the book there is a lot of self-criticism. The people posting excerpts are obviously not gonna show something that paints her in a positive light, because there are parts where she blames Sanders and others. But a large part of the book is actually about where she fucked up.
I didn't buy it, but I did flick through it at a Barne's and Noble and it is harder on her than you'd think from people online.

Doesn't matter who she lost to. She could have lost to Donald Duck for purposes of this article.

So a gossip columnist said something? I'm not saying that it doesn't sound believable, but a guy who's gossiping about the left while writing a book about "destroying" Donald trump is clearly just seeking attention.

With that said, and once again, it sounds believable.

Literal fake news

Klein received extensive criticism for his 2005 biography of Hillary Clinton, The Truth About Hillary. Politico criticized the book for "serious factual errors, truncated and distorted quotes and overall themes [that] don't gibe with any other serious accounts of Clinton's life."[9] The conservative columnist John Podhoretz criticized the book in the New York Post, "Thirty pages into it, I wanted to take a shower. Sixty pages into it, I wanted to be decontaminated. And 200 pages into it, I wanted someone to drive stakes through my eyes so I wouldn't have to suffer through another word."[10] In the National Review, conservative columnist James Geraghty wrote, Folks, there are plenty of arguments against Hillary Clinton, her policies, her views, her proposals, and her philosophies. This stuff aint it. Nobody on the right, left, or center ought to stoop to this level.[11]

Kathryn Jean Lopez of National Review asked Klein in a June 20, 2005 interview, "Why on earth would you put such a terrible story in your book...that looks to be flimsily sourced at that?," regarding his suggestion that Chelsea Clinton was conceived in an act of marital rape.[12] Facing criticism from both the left and right for making the claim, Klein eventually backed away from the insinuation in an interview with radio host Jim Bohannon on June 23, 2005.[13]


The kind of person who would list Klein merely as "someone who has written books about the clintons" has no respect for his readers.

Well.. she did prove a point. She was just Bill Clintons wife. He was one of the most popular presidents ever. Maybe she should have shown some humility and listened to him. He's a smart guy.
