2016 Election - Clinton: The Hillary Clinton Thread

Jules Witcover summarized Ronald Reagan, and despite his reputation as the Teflon President (something the approval ratings of his Presidency decisively refute), it could serve as the description of any President not named GHW Bush:

Democrats would soon learn that what Reagan said and what Reagan did were two different things, but getting voters to care about it was something else altogether different.

You can switch parties and names and describe pretty much any recent President (save Bush 41, who for some reason was not forgivable when he raised taxes).
 
Judicial Watch today released 296 pages of State Department records, of which 44 email exchanges were not previously turned over to the State Department, bringing the known total to date to 171 of new Clinton emails (not part of the 55,000 pages of emails that Clinton turned over to the State Department).

Included in the new document production is a 2009 email in which Band, directs Abedin and Mills to put Lebanese-Nigerian billionaire and Clinton Foundation donor Gilbert Chagoury in touch with the State Department’s “substance person” on Lebanon. ... Chagoury is a close friend of former President Bill Clinton and a top donor to the Clinton Foundation. He has appeared near the top of the Foundation’s donor list as a $1 million to $5 million contributor, according to foundation documents. He also pledged $1 billion to the Clinton Global Initiative.

H said:
“For the duration of my appointment as Secretary if I am confirmed, I will not participate personally and substantially in any particular matter involving specific parties in which The William J. Clinton Foundation (or the Clinton Global Initiative) is a party or represents a party….”

Sic transit res publica.

Clinton and her husband, former president Bill Clinton, paid an effective federal income tax rate of 34.2 percent in 2015, according to the campaign. They paid an effective state and local income tax rate of 9 percent, meaning their combined effective rate was more than 40 percent.
In addition, the Clintons donated 9.8 percent of their adjusted gross income to charity, the campaign reported.

Come on Donald let's see what you got!

Clintons very generous. To themselves.
$42,000 to Desert Classic Charities (That group hosts an annual PGA golf event).
$1,000,000 to the Clinton Foundation.
 
It would make a big difference. But I'm strange that way, I like facts rather than innuendo.
