(9,688 posts)Now I want to know what you're saying. OK?
I said:
"I think the problem is that the Clintons took in $25million cash last year,
amazingly that's take-home for just this most recent year, for "speaking", and that creates an impression of a possible quid pro quo. "
You replied:
"I suppose it is of no consequence to you ...
... that Hillary's speaking fees are donated to charity - which hardly constitutes "take home" pay.
But let's not let facts get in the way ..."
However, I addressed the facts in every case.
There is every indication that fees for Hillary's speaking to some *colleges and univerities* went to the Clinton Foundation, the Clinton family... charitable foundation that pays Chelsea... just a shitload more than I make in a year. But that wasn't declared in Hillary Clinton's financial disclosure, because it wasn't personal income.
What your saying is that what Hillary Clinton disclosed as being personal income, is not, and is in fact "charity".
And yet you expect me to prove you wrong?
