Finding that no power means no income, will Hillary run for office again?
The Coach's Team ^ | 1/13/17 | Doug Book

Posted on 01/13/2017 9:06:05 AM PST by Oldpuppymax

The NY Post had it right in August of 2015 when it deemed the Clinton Foundation a “slush fund.” But it seems that the most desirable deposits of slush only find their way to those who are in a position to offer something in return.

Last year, Hillary’s aspirations for unrivaled power ran headlong into the wisdom she didn’t believe American voters possessed. As a result, donations to the Clinton Foundation are, as PJ Media puts it, “drying up.”

For example, “The Norwegian government’s planned contribution to the Clinton Foundation next year will be nearly 90 percent off its peak...” Cash paid the Clinton’s for speeches fell from $3.6 million in 2014 to just $375,000 last year. And a Foundation ad asking for contributions promised that Bill would personally triple any donation up to $200,000! (Talk about taking money from one pocket and putting it in another!)

Of course, it’s possible that the Foundation’s income nosedive is not connected to Hillary’s failed run for the White House; that the two events are mere coincidence and Hillary’s being stomped by Donald Trump had nothing to do with Norway’s decision. Then again, wasn’t it Mike Myers who observed, “Yeah…and monkeys might fly out of my butt.”

In any event, it looks as though Hillary may be considering a direct approach to ending her income woes. According to Independent Journal Review contributor Kyle Becker, Mrs. Clinton is “in talks to run for political office.” And no, she does not want to rejoin the Senate where she will be forced to share power and political graft with 99 others.

Instead, Newsmax contributor John Gizzi writes that Hillary “is ‘talking about’ running for New York City mayor.” Hillary’s relationship with current Mayor and Communist Bill de Blasio is not the warmest given...

The premise is weak. With all the million$ these grifters have stolen from the taxpayers, they have plenty of income.

This is a true conundrum for the Dowager of Chappaqua and her syphilitic drooling partner-in-crime.

Does she take the pardon the Bamster will not doubt offer which will protect her from prosecution but will kill her political career, OR does she turn down the pardon and hope that an independent counsel does not indict and that she will actually be alive in 2020?

I live in NYC. Staten Island.

Since I don’t work in Manhattan anymore, I don’t give a #### who the mayor is. If I had kids in school, I might think differently.

It’ll be fun to watch deblahblahblah and pantsuit fight it out and destroy each other.

Both are gonna raise taxes and republican doesn’t stand a chance, so why would I even pay attention except for the arguing and mudslinging. :)

When Hillary has no influence to sell, the money dries up to the phony “charity” that only seems to be charitable to those in the Clinton inner circle.

Of course you mean “Soon-to-be-Pardoned Criminal Hillary Clinton.”

Eric Trump asked a very astute question during the election.

I think it’s 50-50 whether the woman lives to see the next Presidential election.

Here’s the original article that you “re-wrote”:

Does your plagiarism pay well?

“Eric Trump questions Clintons’ enormous wealth: ‘What product were they selling?’”

http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/sep/2/eric-trump-questions-clintons-enormous-wealth-what/


Host Ainsley Earhardt suggested: “Favors? The government?”

“Of course,” responded Mr. Trump, who works on the campaign for his billionaire businessman father.

Democrats are absolutely desperate to be the party that gets a woman in as president- that way women will always be in their camp- They will likely try to run her, fauxcahontis sacajaliar, the current first lady, and perhaps even chealsee-me in an effort to be the first- all are radical socialists- heck- they might even through in a few other women just to be sure they have a chance-

C'mon Eric, we all know what they were selling: ACCESS TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE USA!

It was a given that hiLIARy would win and, since there was no obozo 2.0 on the horizon it was a sure bet.

I am pretty sure there is a lot of buyer's remorse out there.

Just for fun, I might try to find out what has happened to donations to the clinton crime foundation since 11/9 (if possible).

She'll try, but too many people--especially the donors to the Clinton Foundation--are going to loudly say NO! And even the Democratic National Committee likely wants someone much younger for the 2020 Presidential nominee.

Just stick her on a street corner dressed exactly as in the article - OR - put her in a mini skirt, high heels and let her walk the streets and earn money the way any prostitute does. Oh! Forget that - can’t show those legs - not a pretty sight just imagining it!!

The recent news that the DOJ will take another look at James Comey’s actions re. Hillary prompts me to reprise my comment of earlier this year.  I may be DEAD WRONG (my few remaining friends know that to be my natural state),  but it’s entirely possible that Comey could go down as the guy who saved America — the idea — from the final destruction planned for us by the libs.  Comey MAY have constructed that presentation as a metaphorical flip of his middle finger to the White House, the Clintons, Holder and Lynch!
We will probably never know.  And, if he wants to continue sucking wind,  it’s a good bet that Comey will NEVER admit it!
DB
***********************************
As I reflected on Comey’s comments on Tuesday, it struck me that he may be more clever than we thought.  His first 15+ minutes were  loaded with sound bites Trump is already making into TV spots. Comey politely called her everything but a child of God and now it’s ALL OUT THERE from the top guy at the FBI!

Then by NOT referring it for prosecution, he has all but the most dedicated Clinton loyalists and brain-dead Democrats (but I again repeat myself) so FURIOUS at the failure to follow through that I believe the election may be an anticlimax — unless Trump steps on his ______________
(insert the name of your favorite body part here) — or they STEAL another one.

So, if he DID get “The Word” from obozo to keep Clinton in the race (and my guess is that he did), his presentation was constructed to do as much damage to her while, at the same time, TECHNICALLY following obama’s order to NOT refer for prosecution, keeping himself out of the doghouse (best case) or from prematurely and suddenly dropping to room temperature . Perhaps some sort of spiteful, up yours obozo twofer? We may never know!

Bottom line: Comey may understand, as many of us do, that losing this election would be more devastating to Hillary Clinton than being indicted and the prospect of going to prison!
