A red herring is stinky fish thrown on the trail to throw off the investigator's hounds. This is a distraction or a strawman case the DNC put out. Wouldn't be suprised if they even sent the 15 year to distract him and keep out of the way of Hillary's run. I only followed or had interested that there would be a plea deal, in order to unravel the real sadisitic, satanic paedophiles in DC. They clearly outed "Weiner" with his salacious texting to a 15 year old to rouse and distract the public from pizzagate. Going forward, Weiner and Jared of Subway should be put in a different category. They are both bones thrown to the public to distract from bigger issues, as far as I'm concerned. Worst they are red herrings to throw off the investigators. What these guys did was wrong and the stories are very salacious. However they are not sadistic satanic worshipping cultish wrong. To Weiner's credit, the story says he ended up repenting and avoiding her, where she kept prompting him. He skrewed up and took the jail bait. Monika Lewinsky also was a distraction from much, much worse things that were going on. That's the Clinton modus of operandi.
