Report: 90 Percent of Hollywood Donations Have Gone to Hillary Clinton
by Kelli Serio 24 Oct 2015 Los Angeles, CA70
According to the Los Angeles Times, Hollywood donors have given $5.5 million to candidates on both sides of the 2016 presidential race. Of those donations, 90 percent have gone to Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
While talk of Vice President Joe Biden jumping into the race had swept Hollywood in recent months, with donors previously announcing they would be ready to back him financially, Biden announced this week he would not run for a third time.
That leaves the door open for Clinton to consolidate the industry’s financial backing, which she largely has accomplished.
Aside from a number of artists and other entertainment figures standing behind Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) , Clinton has not only garnered support from most democrats, but has received about $5 million of the total $5.5 million given by Hollywood this cycle.
Danny DeVito, who gave $2,700, and Jackson Browne, who pledged $1,350, are supporting Sanders. Others, such as Sarah Silverman, Will Ferrell, and Red Hot Chili Peppers singer Anthony Kiedis, are also supporting Sanders.

Bush leads the Republican Party with roughly $165,000 in donations from Hollywood, while New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie comes in second with almost $90,000.

You don't say?
Only 90%, what a bunch of Slackers.
The Queen demands sacrifice. Just ask the Benghazi Four.
WHO in the world thinks Will Ferrel is funny?
he just makes an ass of himself and i’m supposed to laugh?
he’s famous because he imitated a republican in a bad light. that’s all ya gotta do there.
jokes.
How much of their money have they shared with the rest of us?
What odious people they named.
[[Hollywood donors have given $5.5 million to candidates... Of those donations, 90 percent have gone to Hillary Clinton’s campaign ]]
Well, like they say, “A Fool and his money are soon parted
I’m with you. Other than “Anchorman” and “Zoolander,” all he’s done is play annoying frat boys.
let me get this straight - 90% to the Hildebeast and 10% to RINO’s Bush and Christie. To quote the famous words of Cankles, what difference does it make? (there is no difference between the pants suit and the RINOs).
Danny DeVito, who gave $2,700, and Jackson Browne, who pledged $1,350, are supporting Sanders. Others, such as Sarah Silverman, Will Ferrell, and Red Hot Chili Peppers singer Anthony Kiedis, are also supporting Sanders.
Hurt them in thier pockets people, elections have consequences!
Noel Coward wanted Hitler to bomb Hollywood
The LIVs libtards who live in wealth give o Hillary? I’m shocked.../s

add to that Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, George Clooney, Sean Penn., and Liam Neeson. I don't go to their movies anymore. The only one that makes decent movies anymore of the bunch that I want to see is Neeson and even then I can still manage not to pay to see him. I just wait till his movies go to television within a year or so...
Hillary, OTOH, was laser-focused on her political ambitions. Her BIG ACT---every lying word, every smug smirk--was geared to getting Hollywood money into her coffers.
TO THE CALCULATING HILLARY, HER COMMITTEE
APPEARANCE WAS LITTLE MORE THAN A FUND-RAISER:
The Clintons never do anything unless it involves money---which is why Hillary insisted her appearance be televised not be held behind closed doors as Gowdy intended.
BACKSTORY Weeks before, Hillary's Hollywood-based fund-raiser told the LA Times....”Hillary’s much- anticipated testimony on the Benghazi matter before a congressional committee, will allow her to “further showcase her strength as a candidate.”
THE LA TIMES REPORTED Hillary's Super-PAC—”Priorities USA”— had a lackluster first quarter, raising just $15 million (a big chunk of it coming from Hollywierdos).
Bill Clinton was hurriedly set before a mic b/c Hillary’s big-buck donors were holding-out.
BILL WAS COACHED BY HILLARY'S DESPERATE FUND-RAISER TO SAY: “She is being attacked by 16 Republican campaigns and super PACs run by the Koch brothers, Karl Rove, et cetera. She needs resources to respond and put out a positive message. The super PAC is critically important at this stage of the campaign,” the scripted Bill said.
======================================
UPDATE: The buzz is post-hearing Hillary was showered w/ campaign bucks---her appearance was THAT convincing.
Hah--it was all a setup.
For sure, Bill was wire-transferring millions into her coffers from their numerous offshore accounts...to set the scene for Hillary's money-fueled resurrection from her political grave.
Just goes to show that people who make their livings pretending to be something they are not very often fool even themselves.
