My question:
Hillary raises hundreds of millions of campaign dollars and is forced out of the election for what ever reason.
Could she donate those campaign dollars to charity, namely the Clinton Foundation or some PAC controlled by her and her family?
yes
There was always something fishy about her.
I have no idea about answering your question.

Yes she can. This could be exactly what she was after in the first place. I’s like getting free money
IIRC, the money is simply hers.
or they can donate to the Dem Party, or other campaigns....which of course would then make sure the money got back to them.
I wonder why there is very little excitement about the Hillary campaign?
Not sure what she could do with the funds.
I feel certain, however, that if she were able to stick to them, funneling them to the Clinton Crime Foundation, Bill would find a way to siphon enough into his private slush fund to build his own bunker on Epstein’s Orgy Island.
No, it’s not hers....But I’ll bet she can pay off her own debt from last campaign...and then contribute to the Clinton Library or some other self-serving “charity”.
...Forbidden uses of campaign cash
The big no-no, of course, is personal use of political contributions.
Campaign cash can’t be spent on expenses that would exist even if the (former) candidate hadn’t run for office. That’s a broad definition, but the guide spells out some specific examples including college tuition, groceries, funeral expenses, clothes (excluding stuff like campaign T-shirts), mortgage or rent payments, leisure and entertainment, and gym and country club dues.
Just a couple of decades ago, former candidates could spend money on this stuff. Factcheck.org says, “Retiring federal lawmakers used to be able to pocket extra cash and use it for cars, vacations, clothes, pet grooming, whatever – but that changed in 1989 with the passage of the Ethics Reform Act.”
Yes! There is a difference between “Flounder” and “Founder.” Blame the confusion on Animal House,,, but the confusion goes back much further in time. As an old sailer, I know the difference!
That’s not the worst pic I’ve ever seen of her.
First thing I thought of as well!
Flounders flop around pretty good, so it may be an appropriate term to use to describe the H-> campaign..
Hillaryous FReepers BUMP!
weebles wobble but they don’t fall down ,LOL
