On Wednesday, Clinton said that she would be donating the amount that Weinstein gave to her campaign to charity.
Clinton, who remained silent for five days after the Weinstein scandal broke, told CNN Wednesday ‘There’s no one to give it back to. What other people are saying, what my former colleagues are saying, is that they’re going to donate it to charity, and of course I will do that.’
Clinton added ‘I give 10 per cent of my income to charity every year, this will be part of that. There’s no doubt about it.’
Weinstein raised and donated hundreds of thousands of dollars for Clinton, going back to her first campaign for a U.S. Senate seat in New York.
Assuming Hillary does give 10% to charity each year, this is nothing but a shell game. She will continue to give 10% and claim it's now Weinstein's money that she's donating (and she'll write it off on her taxes.) Meanwhile, the 10% of her own money Hillary would have donated will now stay in her bank account.
