Shocker: In Wake of Hillary's Defeat, Donations to Clinton Foundation Dry Up BY MICHAEL WALSH NOVEMBER 20, 2016

Donations to the Clinton Foundation plummeted amid Hillary Clinton's failed presidential run, it has been revealed. The non-profit organization's latest tax filings show contributions fell 37 per cent to $108million - down from $172million in 2014, according to the New York Post.

Donations fell as the former Secretary of State left the group in April last year shortly after announcing her run for the White House. Her departure also meant that revenue brought in from paid speeches plunged from $3.6 million in 2014 to just $357,500.

The foundation became an issue during the presidential campaign when Donald Trump pledged to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate it amid pay-to-play allegations. Trump called the foundation 'the most corrupt enterprise in political history' adding, 'It must be shut down immediately.

Every place will be asking her to PAY THEM $200k to let her speak!

That sizes it about up. They were never paying to hear her boring, trite, insipid, vapid drivel. We all knew that. Any speeches she ever gives from here on out will be freebies at universities. Although I expect her to be dead within a couple of years. She is a bucket of water away from melting into the floor.

I’d make it a point to donate to the her opponent’s campaign in the primary.

I would think donors would not want to pay for private jets, most expensive high life.
I doubt they knew they were providing the Clinton's with a billionaire lifestyle.
Will they discover she is beneath the deplorables.
The most famous woman in the world, for what???????

Good but $108 Million isn’t chump change either. Still a lot of Marxist and their Democrat cousins out there will big bucks and no brains.

And the Dems accused the Republicans of being the “ One Percenters”. Sheez.

Since the donations were buying influence, with der Hildebeast no longer useful, the money is useless. I would think there will be some demanding their money back. That would be ironic.

The Clintoons may need all the money they’ve stolen just to pay their legal bills IF a rico investigation really took place
RICO was enacted for just this type of crime.

Obama is attempting to set up a shadow presidency/state department ala jimmy carter.

I suspect the Clintons will do the same.

Some very unsavory characters invested large amounts of money in Clinton futures. Their investment blew up in their faces Nov 8 and they cannot be happy. Hope the Secret Service are on their game.

What Secret Service? That detail dried up on November 9. The poor dear's on her own now.

I imagine those big fellows from Blackwater don't come cheap.

In N.Y. one has to "live" in the district one is being voted on, for the House. Lowey t'aint leaving ! Hillary tried to take her seat, before "settling" for the Senate.....way back when.

Chuckles is NOT easily gotten rid of and the Clintons KNOW it. So scratch that too.

Gillibrand took Hillary's seat ONLY because Governor Paterson put her there, when that seat became vacant, when Hillary left. Before that, she was in the House and ONLY got there, because she ran as a "CONSERVATIVE" Dem. Once in D.C. she suddenly became a faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar lefty.
