When Anthony Weiner resigned from Congress in 2011 after “sexting” pics of his bulging boxers to women who were not his wife, it was to save the Democrats further embarrassment.

No such luck, then, for his wife, Huma Abedin, who stood beside Weiner, now a candidate for mayor of New York, on July 23 as he once again admitted to sending sexually explicit photos online using the name Carlos Danger.

While Weiner was cagey about when the pics, which surfaced on the gossip website The Dirty, were sent, the highlight of the press conference was Abedin’s cringeworthy statement: “Anthony has made some horrible mistakes,” she said. “I have forgiven him.”
