ZK, I apologize if some of my musings and even some of my anger looked like they were directed at you, it was not. You are a reasonable person with a valid question. My observations were more general when I spoke of peoples reaction when voting against Hillary vs. Obama elicits a different accusation than when voting against her vs. Trump. It’s a double standard no matter how you feel about either Trump or Obama.
I guess my dislike for her isn’t just one thing. I don’t believe her when she speaks and i do not trust her. I think anyone who thinks the Clinton foundation is a wonderful charity that just helps people have drank too much kool-aid. In my opinion its an influence buying money laundering shell company that also does some nice things as a cover. When former mayor Filner solicited donations to his veterans charity in trade for developer variances it didn’t make it right. But at least he didn’t siphon off millions for personal reasons and paybacks to friends. This is from a random article I found, not from the clinton cash book. I looked up some of the people on the payroll mentioned and they are there, even on their wikipedia pages.
“Pals on the payroll
Unlike most charities, the Clinton Foundation doesn’t dole out grants — it uses its donations to pay a staff of 2,000 to carry out humanitarian work. More than a few of those well-paid employees are longtime Clinton friends, supporters, and operatives with deep roots in the couple’s political machine. Donna Shalala, who was Health and Human Services secretary under President Clinton, recently signed on as president and CEO. Chelsea Clinton now holds the title of foundation vice chair. Huma Abedin, one of Hillary Clinton’s top aides and wife of former New York congressman Anthony Weiner, is also on staff. Longtime adviser and confidant Sidney Blumenthal recently concluded four years on the payroll, drawing $10,000 a month to help with research and “message guidance.”
Good work aside, this is a scam. When you find out where the money came from, especially from foreign governments who later received favorable contract or rulings from the state department when she was secretary that makes me not trust her. Trump is not my ideal candidate and he says some stupid things and has no experience. I’d prefer that over what her experience brings. I think the server crap was just her fear of her quid pro quo scam being discovered.
Maybe I’m wrong and she is a saint and all of this is just haters trying to stop the greatest woman of my lifetime from fulfilling her destiny. Truth is, she will probably win, there are more democrats than republicans and Trump seems to enjoy throwing gasoline and lit matches on any positive relationships he makes with the republican establishment when he probably needs them.
This is why I hate politics. I hope I answered your question. I know all or most politicians take contributions from special interests who expect something in return, but I think she’s on another level altogether. I assure you I do not dislike her because she is a woman, if you’ve read any of my writings over the last decade I love women, especially those with a few extra curves on them, she’s in my wheelhouse and trumps entourage contains mostly those who are too skinny for my tastes despite their beauty . Sorry, I can’t help closing a diatribe any other way, that’s how I roll. (once again, misogynistic closing statement for entertainment purposes only and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the author, especially the Hillary in my wheelhouse part. Personality still trumps physical appearance even for a scoundrel like me.)
