CNN Reporter: Clinton Tax Returns Prove ‘Dead Broke’ Comment Untrue

Hillary Clinton‘s tax returns will not only set a major obstacle in her campaign to prove herself a Regular Person™ but, according to CNN reporter Jeff Zeleny, they prove her past statements to be completely false.

According to her latest tax returns, released by the campaign late this week, the Clintons earned nearly $141 million from 2007 to 2014.

And as CNN’s senior Washington correspondent Zeleny told John King on Sunday, such enormous wealth definitively contradicts the candidate’s assertion to Diane Sawyer that she and her husband were “dead broke.”

“”Well technically she said they were dead broke in 2001 as they left the WH””

That is correct and that should have been pointed out. I’m so sick of articles that are written dishonestly. I’m no fan of the beast but it’s bad enough keeping up with her CURRENT lies without implying the “dead broke” lie applies to current years.

Anyone with more than 2 brain cells knew they could not buy a house in the District of Corruption and a house in NY if they were “dead broke”.

Only those engaging in denial believed that when it came out of Hillary’s mouth. It flies in the face of facts.

I don’t know anyone who believed her “dead broke” comment except for her toads in Obama’s state controlled “media”.

Exactly.
Someone, probably Baraq the Usurper, has decided that Hillary! must die, speaking politically of course.

Like the weakest member of the herd, she has been singled out by the jackals.
She will now suffer death by a thousand cuts. No one wound being mortal, but the sum total of the wounds leading to her inevitable political death.

Slow and painful.
Her political life will be barely wheezing when the jackals start to feed in earnest.

The FACT that the bitch was allowed to make that statement without being ridiculed back under her rock at that time and by the media shows how in the bag they are for her. Thanks PROCON.

The real story here is that CNN is committing actual Journalism re: the Clintons.

Talk about a buried lede!

What you say is true regarding 2001. But it is nice to see CNN going after the beast and lying about her, or misrepresenting what she said. Maybe it will stick.

If you wrote a book continuing that narrative I would consider a purchase.

Great stuff.

Hillary campaigned for and was elected US Senator from New York in November of 2000. Dead broke people do not have successful EXPENSIVE campaigns unless they have sold their office wholesale or else the power-brokers know they can be bought. Granted, the fact that she ran for US Senate while FLOTUS was unprecedented, odious, and a smear on the body politic of both New York and the United States.

It is surprising.
Another signal the Chicago Mob has started to torpedo her?

It may just be a signal the Baraqqi regime has started the takedown operation.

Thank you.

Better minds than mine are chronicling the Clinton Downfall.

I am enjoying my popcorn immensely though.
