Actually, no. Podesta suffers from Dupuytren's Contracture and has had surgeries to free the tendons in his hand.

Proof: Wikileaks email to the infamous Tamera Luzatto

Subj: Dupuytren's Advance Info for John Podesta

Hi Tamera, On a routine visit to our Dr. Li, he gave me an abstract for a September N.Eng. J. of Med. article touting the success of a study injecting collagenase into Dupuytren's cords. Although not yet approved by the FDA, Dr. Li thinks this is big news and recommended I check it out with my hand surgeon as an alternative to my next surgery.

I'm surprised Vindicator you haven't looked at Podesta's hands more closely.

Here is a photo of his RIGHT hand: https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5b84rd/john_podestas_right_hand_is_mutilated_with_scars/ Whilst his right hand displays linear scars on the palm indicative of a fascietomy, the large part of the finger which has the skin completely gone does not. In a fascietomy, the skin is cut in a zig zag, usually on the palm and sometimes a short way up the finger. What a fascietomy does NOT do is take large chunks of skin off a finger and/or palm and not replace it. Here are hands recovering from a fascietomy: https://www.google.com.au/search?q=fasciectomy&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiVnO78ucnUAhVCmJQKHXKkAw4Q_AUIBigB&biw=881&bih=420

This is a photo of his LEFT hand: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3525866/posts Note that there is a bandaid on his MIDDLE finger. That finger or hand has no signs of having had a fascietomy. A simple bandaid would not be used to cover the sutures if it had.

And if you recall, Abramovich's line was "With a sharp knife cut deeply into the middle finger of the right hand"--exactly the finger that has the bandaid on it.

Thanks for all of that information, Piscina. I hadn't seen an up-close picture like that. That pinky looks like a skin graft gone wrong or a burn. Yuck. Having seen this up close now, I tend to agree with you...there is probably something more than Dupuytren's going on here. Although, the top comment in that Reddit post you linked does say it looks just like the commenter's dad's hands, who has Dupuytren's.
