Her husband's status, prestige, her own power? She was being deliberately VICIOUS to hillary and I don't know her reason. If she wasn't being DELIBERATELY VICIOUS, then she has a real problem......this is smart? DR. BIDEN????? Jill Biden should be muzzled….even if true, what was she trying to prove?
