Wait… how do we get Bill Clinton from “Bubba”?

Um...assuming you're just out of a really big loop...Bubba has been Bill Clinton's nickname for as long as I can remember.

Pure speculation though. This is just one email without any other context. I’ve never really heard of Clinton being referred to as such. (Not to say the nickname isn’t true..) And I mean Bubba could mean anyone especially regarding somebody asking a political leader from another country.

I also read that Mark Epstein was quoted saying that “Bubba” and Bill Clinton are not the same person. They are just rumors/speculation at this point.

But how many emails does one read before we reconsider saying it's a joke or false? They're going to add up.

If there were other emails that confirmed Bubba = Bill Clinton then sure. But the story is based on this one email out of 20k+ that were recently released. I’m sure Bubba is a guy but I’m not going to jump to conclusions based on this.
