There's a rumor that she didn't talk to him for months after she learned of his behavior. And she she finally did call him it was to tell him to bomb Yugoslavia.
No need for rumor; Hillary confirmed it back in 1999.
Wasn't Serbia doing bad things, though? I'm not super educated on this part of history.
It was, Serbia was committing war crimes. You can probably guess how much NATO cared about the war crimes, and how much NATO was simply trying to position itself to expand its hegemony and use the issue as a wedge in the Balkans that would reinforce the smaller countries' need for itself.
Ah, makes sense.
It was a shitshow after the fall of Communism generally and the breakup of Yugoslavia specifically, but getting NATO involved was itself controversial.
Real "My dad works at Nintendo" energy, but I know some people that were in Washington at the time who said Hillary was throwing shit at Bill and the secret service had to intervene before he lost an eye or something.
Then there's the rumors she got absolutely piss drunk in 2016 after she lost and that's why she didn't make an appearance at her campaign HQ.
