13. Clintons also hired a gardener
Thu May 28, 2015, 10:24 AM
May 2015

who previously worked to water roses at their campaign headquarters but after the campaign ended he was absorbed to water plants at the Clinton Foundation HQ.

While watering plants, the gardener also gave advice on colors of drapes and better ways to arrange a sofa.

It has been learned that while working for the foundation, the gardener ate two left-over sandwiches after adjournment of a meeting and was also found to take a swig from a bottle of sherry.

Witnesses have seen the gardener talking over his cell phone while at work at the foundation and since he was seen on a balcony, the contents of his conversation remain suspicious.

The gardener could not be reached for comment.

Oh man -- this stinks! This is such sleazy behavior on the part of Clintons! It will surely sink her campaign!
