Has disgraced Anthony Weiner learned anything from his sexting scandal, prison sentence and destroyed marriage? Here’s one of those “Just can’t make this stuff up” stories.
From the New York Post: Disgraced ex Congressman Anthony Weiner joked that “women are crazy about me” and riffed about his sexting scandal during a spirited interview — as he seeks a political comeback by running for New York City Council seat.
“For sure, my god. They’re crazy about me. Women are crazy about me,” said the registered sex offender, when podcast host Adam Friedland asked if women find powerful men such as politicians attractive.
Weiner is the 60-year-old perv whose sexting scandal prompted an embarrassing exit from public office more than a decade ago — before he was later sent to prison for sexting 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 .
Trying to come up with a reason that the former congressman’s sexting scandal made such big headlines, Friedland claimed that if the same thing happened in 2025, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal.
Weiner joked that it only got so much attention because of his name.
