WHO IS SUSIE TOMPKINS BUELL? CLINTON DONOR GAVE $500,000 TO FUND TRUMP SEXUAL MISCONDUCT ACCUSERS

Partisan politics have long taken hold of the sexual misconduct allegations against President Donald Trump, according to a Sunday New York Times report. Multiple donors who funded lawsuits against the president in hopes of holding him accountable for his alleged misdeeds were identified.

Among them was Susie Tompkins Buell, the founder of the Esprit clothing brand. She is a close personal friend of Hillary Clinton and a prominent donor of her campaign. Buell also donated to Bill Clinton's first presidential campaign, after speaking with him at an event in 1991.

“They asked me what I wanted,” she told the Los Angeles Times in June 2006. “I remember saying, ‘I want him to be president.’ I had no idea about how the money part of this worked.”

Her relationship with Hillary Clinton blossomed from there.

Buell was just one of a number of people who donated to Democratic activist David Brock's coordinated effort to take down Trump for alleged sexual harassment and assault leading up to the 2016 presidential election. Brock reportedly contributed $500,000 to lawyer Lisa Bloom's firm, which was seeking funds for "security, relocation and possibly a 'safe house.'"

Brock is a crook, what he is doing is illegal, but who will do anything to this queer?

Hahahahahaha.... says so much about how the Clintons saw such contributions as a quid pro quo deal.

She needs to be sent to jail for falsely trying to accuse a man. There should be stiff penalties for trying to ruin a man’s reputation.

He was running PACs too and money has been used for wrong purposes. He should go to jail (he might like it).

Hmm, William Jefferson Clinton? Wasn’t there some speculation about his dalliances?
