A former Secret Service agent claims that Hillary Clinton was rude to agents during her time as First Lady.
When agents refused to carry her luggage, a task that is not in their job description, Hillary allegedly screamed “Stay the f*** away from me! Just f*****g do as I say!” former FBI agent Gary Aldridge wrote in his book Unlimited Access: An FBI Agent Inside the White House.
Agents who served on the Clinton’s protective detail claim that Bill was very cordial, always chatting and asking about their families, while Hillary was aloof and hardly gave so much as a “thank you,” the Daily Mail reported Wednesday.
Another former Secret Service agent, Dan Emmett, wrote in his book At Arms Length that the former president sometimes disregarded the safety of his Secret Service protection in highly dangerous situations.
Mr. Emmett said that Mr. Clinton put his own life and the lives of his agents at risk by insisting on a “totally pointless photo op” on the border line between North and South Korea.
“No one seemed to know if President Clinton grasped how potentially dangerous this stop on the bridge was,” Mr. Emmett writes.
