In addition to a $65 million book advance and an estimated $50 million deal with Netflix, both of which she shares with husband Barack Obama, the former first lady is poised to rake in millions from appearances on her 10-city US tour and sales of merchandise connected to her autobiography.

If obama had an honest bone in him, he would “share the wealth”.

We all know he never will.

How much of that money ended up in democrats' foreign bank accounts?

Remember the $800 Billion dollar slush fund the democrat congress handed over to Obama?

How much of that money ended up in the pockets and bank accounts of Obama and his cronies?

I just want everyone who is bitching on here to know that if you have a Netflix subscription, you are directly subsidizing this POS.

The obama’s got something like $48 Million from Netflix, courtesy of all of subscribers.

I cancelled my subscription that day.

"Hillary will be so ticked - all this right after she and
Slick cancel their big speaking tour due to lack of interest."

And that's what makes it so tragic for Bill and Hillary.
And so hilarious. LOL!!!

President Trump will be the only man in recent history who leaves the office poorer than when he arrived.


Sadly, I agree. Trump is not of the Swamp. So the Swamp will take its revenge.

Meanwhile, average Americans can't afford to go to the doctor anymore.

It's a sick country that would celebrate this destructive duo.

This is exactly what happens in Banana republics. The Leaders become billionaires.

Worth repeating.

“...if you have a Netflix subscription, you are directly subsidizing this POS.”

TRUE. Being a FReeper and using Netflix, Facebook, Twitter, Google or Yahoo! is a moral conflict of interest.

“The Obamas are “Becoming” — billionaires.”

Not bad for a Kenyan with trans-gendered ‘wife’.

Richer, maybe. Not sure anyone can out-corrupt Bill ‘n Hill. They’re the gold standard for shameless corruption. I don’t like Michelle Obama, but she’s a piker compared to HRC.

Silence about what he did for them as President. Rewards to incentivize the next crook.
