Clinton Family Plans to Scale Back Foundation If Hillary Clinton Wins Election James V. Grimaldi and Peter Nicholas Aug. 18, 2016 7:10 p.m. ET
Former President Bill Clinton and his daughter, Chelsea, plan to stop raising money for the Clinton Foundation and turn over operations to independent parties if Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton is elected president, according to people familiar with the plans.
The Clintons also plan to discontinue after this year one of the foundations signature events, the Clinton Global Initiative, Mr. Clinton told the staff at the foundations headquarters in New York on Thursday, according to people familiar with the matter.
Next months annual meeting aims to draw commitments from corporations, philanthropies and others to seek to remedy global problems such as poverty and AIDS.
The Clinton Foundation also would no longer accept foreign and corporate donations if Mrs. Clinton were elected president, a foundation official said on Thursday.

They won’t need the foundation if elected; it will have served its purpose.

They should scale it back while it’s audited and then for 40 years while the Clintons are in federal prison!

Likely the apart above water, the show part. The huge under water part would go on and increase exponentially, if it were up to her.

Are the Clinton’s just going to put a donation box at the door of the White House or just send Bill out to collect the paper bags of money?

This is an admission that the foundation receives a significant amount of foreign money and it is inappropriate.

“The Clinton Foundation also would no longer accept foreign and corporate donations if Mrs. Clinton were elected president, a foundation official said on Thursday.”
Is this not code for “Get your donations in now so we can take care of you later”?
