Anthony Weiner says 'women are crazy about me' as he jokes about sexting scandal while pursuing political comeback
Share this @internewscast.com

This guy just can’t stop talking about sex.

Former Congressman Anthony Weiner, who left politics in disgrace, humorously commented that “women are crazy about me” while discussing his sexting scandal during an engaging interview. He is now attempting a political return by running for a seat on the New York City Council.

“Absolutely, my goodness. They go nuts over me. Women are crazy about me,” remarked the registered sex offender when podcast host Adam Friedland inquired whether women are drawn to powerful men like politicians.

Weiner, now 60, became infamous due to a sexting scandal that forced him to leave public office over a decade ago. He later served time in prison for sending explicit messages to a 15-year-old girl.

After serving a stint in prison, Weiner is now running in the Democratic primary for Council in Manhattan East Side’s District 2 .

Friedland, in the season premiere of “The Adam Friedland Show” on Youtube, told Weiner his tabloid scandal wouldn’t even crack the “top 100” of salacious stories in the current high-tech social media environment

Weiner said it was a “slow news” cycle then and quipped that his last name didn’t help matters.

“I’m a guy named Weiner who tweeted out a picture of his dick,” he said during the segment released Thursday.

Friedland argued that former ex-Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz, who was accused of paying to have sex with a minor, is a worse offense.

.

“If his name was Matt Kidf—er,” Weiner replied.

But Friedman said he believed that Weiner’s pervy criminal behavior had a “butterfly effect” on the 2016 presidential election, when the FBI inadvertently discovered Clinton’s emails on his laptop.

The randy ex-congressman said he sometimes gets mistaken for another former scandal-scarred New York pol.

A “dude at Wing Stops” eatery told his son, Jordan, that his dad should “run for governor again.”

“They thought I was Eliot Spitzer,” deadpanned Weiner, referring to the ex-governor who resigned in a hooker scandal.

Asked how he stayed safe in prison, Weiner said, “I lived with the storeman” — the guy who ran the commissary.

Weiner even cracked a few Rodney Dangerfield jokes during the segment.

He also dished on other members of the New York House delegation, saying Manhattan Rep. Jerrold Nadler “still grimaces at me when he sees me.”

On a more serious note, Weiner said it hurt to be put on the sex offender registry list after serving his 21-month sentence.

But he pleaded guilty to sexting with a minor.

Weiner’s downfall began in 2011, when he resigned from Congress after admitting he’d sent salacious selfies to at least six women.

But he couldn’t keep his pants on.

Weiner then then saw his comeback campaign for mayor in 2013 go down in flames when it was revealed he resumed the pervy activity using the pseudonym “Carlos Danger.”

Even then, Weiner couldn’t keep his privates to himself.

He developed a months-long online relationship with a 15-year-old girl, whom he asked to dress up in school uniforms and be part of “rape fantasies”, prosecutors charged.

He pleaded guilty to sexting with a minor.

Worse still, the FBI criminal probe into Weiner became a major issue in the final leg of the 2016 presidential campaign after investigators found thousands of Hillary Clinton’s private email exchanges with her top adviser Human Abedin, also Weiner’s wife, on Weiner’s laptop.

The revelation prompted the FBI to reopen a probe into Clinton’s email use.

Nothing came of it, but Clinton said the revelation impacted the election contributed to her loss to Donald Trump.

He ruined his career, humiliated his wife and destroyed his marriage and upended the 2016 race for the White House.
