The reaction from around the Twitterverse to news that a university paid $65,000 for Chelsea Clinton to make a brief appearance in 2014 can largely be summed up in one word.
What?!
Tuesday morning, the Washington Post reported the University of Missouri at Kansas City was looking for a celebrity speaker to headline a gala luncheon, and initially reached out to Hillary Clinton. But when Clinton’s representatives quoted a fee of $275,000, officials balked.
So they turned to the Democratic presidential front-runner’s daughter. As reported by the Post, the university paid $65,000 for Chelsea Clinton’s appearance.

As evil as her mom, without the street brains.
REALLY OMG!!!!!! More than MOST Americans make in a year, just being someone’s daughter!!!!!! We are in the toilet!!!!!
Just remember, Chelsea tells us she’s not interested in money, as she wipes her rear with a hundred dollar bill.
How many of the surprised ones thought she should get more than $65 large?
What surprise? just more redistribution of wealth.
Note that academia’s big draw heroes are Leftist politicians.
Not noted scientists, not writers, not mathematicians. There crowd getters are socialist royalty.
All you need to know about academia in America.
Its the budget bribe to the Clinton Foundation.
The KKKlinton Influence Peddling, Bribery and Kickback Foundation.
What surprise, indeed? This is just the Clintons doing business. $65,000 gets funneled to the Hillary campaign via a compliant, politically friendly academic establishment.
Is it really about hearing pearls of wisdom from a 35 year old overprivileged airhead?
More surprising is that anyone paid it.
Chelsea’s riding on her mom’s coat tail....and like her mom has nothing to show she’s done other than make money for the Foundation on her circuit ride...just as with her mother traveling the World.
The Clinton machine “family” is all generating revenue....and maintaining the power it welds. Nothing more.
All those years of bar crawling and sleeping around in NYC paid off ... she’s a high priced ....
Besides being born into the Clinton family and making a baby what are her qualifications for anything??
Truly a case of too many people who are educated beyond their intelligence.
Nice to know where all that tuition money and alumni donations are going -> graft to destroy the USA. If I were an alumnus of U of Missouri, I’d be writing a letter and withdrawing support. I did the same thing when my alma mater kept paying off the current pres_ent and his sow of a wife.
“Chelsea’s riding on her mom’s coat tail”
more like a broom
I’m sure I can find something to speak about for $65,000.
“Thanks to all of you, for putting this cash in my hands so easily. And now, I shall read from “1984”. Then, let’s have tiny sandwiches”.
As evil as her mom, but without her good looks.
Oh, sometimes I crack myself up...
With inflation and all one has to wonder how much Mooch and her daughters will make for a speech.
