Plot summary
Anthony Weiner served seven terms in Congress from New York City. In June 2011 he resigned after admitting he had tweeted lewd photos of himself to women he met online. His wife, Huma Abedin, an aide to Hillary Clinton, was pregnant with their first child and chose to stay with him. Two years later, with Abedin at his side, he campaigns for mayor of New York City. Early polls place him near the front of the Democratic primary field, and he knows other lewd photos from that era may surface during the race.
