The Clintons Left the White House “Dead Broke”
Hillary Clinton spoke in an interview with Diane Sawyer at ABC News about how broke she and Bill Clinton were when they left the White House after Bill’s presidency.
“You have no reason to remember, but we came out of the White House not only dead broke, but in debt,” she said. “We had no money when we got there, and we struggled to piece together the resources for mortgages for houses, for Chelsea’s education. It was not easy. Bill has worked really hard. And it’s been amazing to me. He’s worked very hard.”
Once again, this statement is so unlikely that any rational American would question it. Clinton’s bizarre claim may have been meant to build a sense of sympathy. When her finances were later analyzed, it was discovered that the Clintons may have been $500,000 in the hole due to Bill Clinton’s legal bills but their total assets were $1.8 million, not “dead broke”.
Hillary didn’t only ‘exaggerate for effect’ about her family’s finances. She also felt compelled to make another outrageous claim after she was caught breaking government security regulations:
The gullible keep on feedin’ at the media trough.
Chris Delfs Your name “Wagner,” bub? I wasn’t replying to you, but to the Clinton clone who parroted the “I’m with her” line.
If you’re drunk, perhaps.
Excellent use of sarcasm, many will miss it. Kudos!
David Malbuff Funny. You don’t seem to mention the gold stars though? No surprise. I ameorking overtime tonight. A greater sacrifice than losing a child to war right?
