Its a record. Hillary Clintons failed presidential run cost $1.2 billion. Trump supporters should have a field day with this final bill, given that Clinton slammed the president-elect for losing a billion dollars during his business career.
"What kind of genius loses a billion dollars in a single year?" said the Democratic nominee in October. Well, I guess she can add her name to that list I guess (via NY Post):
Hillary Clinton and her supporters spent a record $1.2 billion for her losing presidential campaign — twice as much as the winner, Donald Trump, according to the latest records.
The president-elect, who confounded critics during the campaign by saying there was no need to raise or spend $1 billion or more, ended up making do with $600 million.
Clintons expensive machine tore through $131.8 million in just the final weeks, finishing with about $839,000 on hand as of Nov. 28.
Team Trump spent $94.5 million in the home stretch — from Oct. 20 to Nov. 28 — and had $7.6 million left.
The figures include all spending by the campaigns, PACs and party committees.
But its not all bad news for Clinton. She did make history by being the first woman nominated by a major party for president, though she was under FBI investigation at the time. And became the fifth person in American history to win more popular votes, but lose the Electoral College. So, her name will be in the books, liberals. Take pride in that. For Republicans, they can take immense satisfaction that Hillary will never be president.
It was Johnnie Walker Black Label and thanks :)
Grey Goose. Haven’t had that in a long time.
That’ll kill the pain that is obama!
Your assuming she pays her campaign debts?
Very good display of math skills. Now, how much Ten High will that get you? The only whiskey with an ad line inspired by Joseph Stalin; “Quantity has a quality of its own.”
She didn’t spend it visiting Wisconsin. LOL
It’s OPM (other people’s money) so they won’t question it. They’re all about spending OPM.
More likely to have worked. More likely 20 rocks or bags of MJ.
At arooound $8 an a dime a Fifth about 148 million firths.

Jeb Bush is a masterful politician.
I mean, after all, who gets their 90-year-old mother out on the campaign trail, with her walker in the snow, to “boost votes”?
That Tippy-Toes Jeb is quite a guy.
Oh and, “Please clap!”.
How much money did the Saudis give Obama?
I wonder if that amount includes bills all over the country that vile woman will never pay?
But not a cent of it was her own money. She used only the money for her multitude of suckers from Wall Street to Hollyweird.
No wonder she has some disgruntled donars! LOL! Maybe they’ll tell her where to put it if she asks them to donate in 2020. Lord, please spare us from that nightmare!! I’m not even kidding!
And I laugh at every schlub and country that gave her money.<<<<
They got schlonged!
You may not have directly contributed to her campaign, but, you and every American citizen paid indirectly for her 'pay to play' scam while she was Secretary of State. Maybe now 'we the people' can learn what happened to that $6 billion dollars not yet accounted for, while she reigned as Secretary of State.

And the Donald’s campaign? Maybe 150 million. Peanuts.
NOt sure but that’s a lot for Mable.
