Clintons raised $2-3 billion in two decades The Hill ^ | July 2, 2014 | Alexandra Jaffe / FR Posted by Cincinatus' Wife
Bill and Hillary Clinton raised $2-3 billion in the two decades they’ve been prominent on the national stage, according to the WSJ.
The Journal tallied the Clintons’ speaking fees, fundraising for their foundation and the sums raised for Bill Clinton’s two presidential campaigns for the DNC while he was in office and for Hillary Clinton’s Senate and presidential campaigns.
Between $1.3-2 billion came from U.S. companies and industry sources, making up at least 75 percent of the sum — more than the 60 percent industry sources contributed to the two Bushes’ political operations.
The Journal reports that if Hillary Clinton runs for president in 2016, as expected, she could return such donors to the Democratic Party, a source of concern for Republican fundraisers as they gear up for what’s expected to be the most expensive presidential election in history.
Overall, the Clintons’ political operations raised $1.2 billion, their nonprofit drew between $750 million and $1.7 billion and they made about $100 million in speaking fees. --SNIP--

The figures are what THE CLINTONS ALLOW us to know. DOES NOT include (1) amounts secreted in numbered offshore bank accounts,(2) investment holdings, (3) safe deposit boxes holding coins, gold, valuables, etc, (4) other holdings in real estate, businesses, (5) rental, interest accrued, investment income, etc .....
The two leeches didn't have a pot to *** in back in Arkansas---didn't even own a home. But they are experts at gaming the "public service" system for themselves. The Clintons conniving has enriched them. They are now worth hundreds of millions of dollars.....and counting.
How did they make the money? In several ways.
(1) Bill's calculated moves w/ his presidential pen and official policies profited numerous cronies and entities.....who are now being hit up for donations to the three Clinton tax-exempt "foundations which they evolved into some 14 fund-raising mechanisms.....and to enrich Hillary.
(2) Bill's pardon pen was useful in pardoning diverse voting blocs which got Hillary elected to the US Senate as a prelude to her presidential ambitions.
(3) The Clintons game the system 24/7.... ////Here's a peek at how the "dead broke " Clintons got their geedy hands on billions of dollars......b/c being president and Secretary of State has an astoundingly good monetary return.
Hundreds of millions flow into the Clintons three tax-exempt foundations which the Clintons calculatedly morphed into hundreds of separate fund-raising machines.
The Clintons' "The Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Family Foundation" gives them even more fund-raising capabilities......w/ a friendly "family" aura.
Earlier, a NYT's expose chronicled the shady financing of the tax-exempt money machine----The Clinton Global Initiative foundation.

WATCHING THE CLINTONS OPERATE IS A LESSON IN WHAT BEHAVIORAL SCIENTISTS CALL "NARCISSTIC IMMUNITY"--- under the mantle of "narcisstic immunity"---they are so good, so tolerant, so much more compassionate than us peons, that they can even operate above the law---nothing can touch them.
Every move the Clintons make is laser-focused on political "survival". The Clintons have the survival instincts of a cockroach---once they infest your domain---its almost impossible to get rid of them.
They are ultimately driven by greed-----salivating to get back into office....selling out the WH---thoughts of adding billions to their massive holdings dancing in their greedy heads.
================================================
TYPICAL PHONY LIBERALS---THE CLINTONS NEVER LET ANYTHING INTERFERE W/ POLITICAL PROFITEERING
They flaunt their do-goodism like typical liberals, and they're more than willing to make a buck on it.
"Smile everybody. Another $100 million came in today."
