Clinton’s fallout is interestingly causing an internal revolution among Hillary’s big donors. At her New York bash to “thank” her big donors of $1 million or more, she took no blame and pointed the finger at Comey and Putin. Her spin did not work and she has lost a lot of credibility according to confidential sources. They were smart enough to realize that even if Russia “hacked” the DNC and Podesta emails, there would be no release if there had been no wrongdoing to begin with. Now Clinton’s biggest backers want a “campaign autopsy,” which could expose Clinton’s entire operation. The donors are demanding to know where Clinton spent the near $1.5 billion in campaign resources she collected in the closing months. They want the receipts. They are demanding an honest investigation of how Clinton failed to read the mood in swing states and how her Brooklyn operation misread polling data. The donors are not buying the Russian hack story. Putin isn’t the only explanation for her failure and they are now pointing the finger at Hillary. She never bothered to go to Wisconsin. The story running behind the curtain is that fundraisers are cutting off all donations to the Democratic Party until this honest review is carried out. They do not want to hear about Comey and Putin. Foreign governments have been cutting off funds to the Clinton Foundation. At last, the money is being cut off. Bill Clinton has lost it, mocking President-elect Donald Trump’s intelligence. “[Trump] doesn’t know much,” Bill Clinton said of Trump. “One thing he does know is how to get angry, white men to vote for him.” Bill is keeping it racist and gender oriented. Obviously, Bill is lashing out because the Clinton money machine came to a screeching halt.
The Vig is a bitch. No wonder Hillary pitched a fit election night and Bill is down to 117lb.
I would LOVE to hear the screeching that is going on behind closed doors in the Clinton house!
There probably won’t be a piece of crockery that isn’t chipped or broken! LOL!
Oooooh!
RAT-on-RAT violence!
That won't stop the sort of people the Clintons owe. Think Mafiosos and third world dictators.
I'll bet the Clintons are suddenly treating their Secret Service agents like long lost brothers.
“Sorry about calling you a #%$& @&#%!?#. Will you please stand between me and the people I swindled?”
She didn't need them then, but she really needs them now.
The big donors are not asking where the money went. They now know they backed a terribly flawed candidate that lost fair and square.
Wisconsin became Galt's Gulch, and Hillary couldn't find it.
Maybe the scene where Sonny gets whacked might be a good ending for the Clintons.
...and all Harry Reid did was botch a land deal and for that he lost and eye.
The fact Bill and Hillary are on the run makes me happy.
Unfortunately, my BS detector is clanging.
Those “confidential sources” certainly swallowed their tongue in Hillary’s presence. I suppose courtesy insisted that since the expensive soiree was on her dime (really it was theirs) they should eat, drink and hear her out in person and not ask questions.
Still hopping mad the next morning, these donors realized there were too many doors of excuses she gave them on the night before, for the loss. They could not possibly choose the door numbered “Truth”, without the receipts and decimal points attached to the campaign cash blown through.
Clinton NEVER showed up.
Clinton ran an old fashioned TV ad campaign unfit for 2016.
Mostly they rained money down on high positions, big names and in expensive markets and “assumed the win”, by blowing off the work needed in the swing states.
Still, Hillary NEVER showed up. She announced she was running and no one saw her for six to eight more weeks, while Republicans, especially Trump, were working their behinds off.
Hillary’s back-end was seen only coming and going to money-tree parties on estates the size of New Hampshire, or Martha’s Vine Yard. She grazed the buffets, chatted over champagne and went back to bed.
Hint, check much campaign money she transferred to herself via her foundation.
Every presidential campaign has to file reports with the Federal Election Commission. Often there are simply broad categories, but it’s all donations over $200 (IIRC) and all expenditures. The reports are all available online @ the FEC. Usually for a campaign with the funding Clinton had there will be reports and amendments to reports for two years.
(you need to edit your tagline)
They can’t keep the money for personal expenses. The law was changed to prevent that in the mid80s. BUT they can keep and control the funds to donate to other political campaigns.
Typically that’s how politicians rise in the power chain. After their first or second successful election they raise more money but need less to win so they accumulate large sums that they then dispense to more vulnerable candidates who then become beholden to them. THEN, when the donor needs a vote in the caucus to become whip or majority/minority leader, or whatever role s/he may be after, s/he has a member whose vote s/he can count on.
Cool.........
It gets even better then.
Well, there’s Chelsea’s wedding for one thing and her exorbitant salary.
According to Tastemade (2015), the most expensive bottle of Champagne is Goût de Diamant Brut Diamond Champagne, at $1.8m. It comes in a bottle made of 18-karat gold decorated with a 19-carat diamond.
And the second most expensive bottle is Shipwrecked 1907 Heidsieck, at $275k.
So, either she ripped the diamond off the Goût de Diamant before throwing it, or the Shipwrecked Heidsieck appreciated due to a market fluctuation?
