Clinton Aide in Email on de Blasio Not Endorsing Right Away: ‘Wow What a Terrorist’

One of the new revelations from the John Podesta emails is that Hillary Clinton‘s current campaign manager used some interesting language in reference to Bill de Blasio a while back.

The 2015 email reveals that in response to a tweet sent over by someone about the New York mayor wanting to wait to hear what Clinton has to say before endorsing her, Robby Mook used the word “terrorist” in response:

Oh, and de Blasio was asked about this today. It turns out the Clinton campaign dealt with this one pretty quickly:

BDB says Clinton aide Robby Mook called after email showing Mook called him a "terrorist." BDB said he told Mook he was a "loyal American."

Highlights: De Blasio says Mook called after 'terrorist' email; BDB says privacy is over. And @yoavgonen gets a question!
