Chelsea Is Asked if Clinton Foundation Will Return Weinstein Money. How She Answers Speaks Volumes


BY JUSTEN CHARTERS
14 HOURS AGO
The Clinton Global Initiative Winter MeetingStringer/Noam Galai/Getty Images
By now, it's well known that alleged sexual predator Harvey Weinstein was a major Democratic donor. But he wasn't just a donor to Barack Obama's and Hillary Clinton's campaigns, as he contributed to other causes as well.

Among the organizations Weinstein has given a lot of funding to is the Clinton Foundation. Chelsea Clinton is currently the vice chair of the organization.

On Saturday, a reporter at an event Chelsea was hosting decided to ask her about the $100,000 Weinstein donation that has gone to the Clinton Global Initiative. While her mom discussed giving her campaign contributions from Weinstein to charity, Chelsea had a different idea.

The Daily Mail has more on what happened when its reporter engaged with Chelsea:

“Chelsea, will the foundation give back the donations from Harvey Weinstein?” a DailyMail.com reporter asked Chelsea as she left a CGI lunch event through a side door on Saturday. “Do you plan to return the $100,000?”

Chelsea, flanked by Clinton Foundation officials, looked straight ahead and ignored the questions as she scurried through the side lot and ducked into her waiting black sedan. Security blocked the reporter from approaching her car.

Earlier in the day, Chelsea had ducked the same questions from DailyMail.com after her car dropped her off at the front of the building. When she left the event, Chelsea departed through the isolated side door as her car idled next to it, seemingly to give her a chance to flee quickly.

When the news about Weinstein officially broke, Chelsea tweeted that it was a “horrifying, harrowing, necessary read.” However, when confronted about the money Weinstein gave her foundation, she did not even give the question the time of day. As such, her decision to not just ignore the reporter, but run away, speaks volumes.

Seems to me she answered the question quite clearly.

Give back a $100,000.00?

After all they do to get that money in the first place?

You must be incurably insane or have an IQ measured in negative numbers to think that will ever happen.

After all, Chelsea is the breadwinner in the family after her husband Mark Mezvinsky lost 90% of their assets in the collapse of Eaglevale Partners. I mean who would ever think the Greek economy would tank?

Hehe right? The last good things to come out of Greece were some surplus .30 ball and a few M1's.

Give the money back? Her dad taught her better than that. You never return hush money.

You could hand her a check drawn on the First Bank of Hell and actually signed by "Lucifer, Prince of Darkness" and Chelsea would e-deposit it before the ink dried. Old hat.

With as much money as those vile human beings have in their garbage foundation and personal finances, why in the fuck wouldn't the answer be an emphatic "YES, WE WILL". $100k? Chelsea probably has more than that in gift cards in her junk drawer.

Sad, but most likely true, which means there will be more trouble ahead.

Hillary said on TV that she gives 10% every year to charity - aka The Clinton Foundation. Roll Eyes

Chelsea needs to quit dodging reporters and learn from her mom - so she too can run for President. (Where can I get the emoji for vomiting?)

The Clinton family has passed the zenith of their power. Chelsea does not have the skill set of either parent.


Hillary strains to remain "relevant"... but if you saw this interview, you know she is on the downhill slide:


Hillary Shifts Blame In Brutal British Interview

October 14, 2017

During an interview with Hillary Clinton on Friday, journalist Matt Frei asked the former Secretary of State a very real question: "So you're still blaming others more than yourself?"

Ouch. Let’s rewind a bit.

Prior to that question, Frei and Clinton had an interesting exchange:

FREI: But how much was this your own failure as a candidate?

CLINTON: Oh, it was certainly part of it. And as I write in the book, and try to be as candid as I can, I think there were several problems with my candidacy. One, the kind of leadership that I was offering based on my experience, my preparation, the ideas I had, what I knew I could do because I had served in the Senate for eight years — I'd been Secretary of State for four years — was not a perfect match with the anger and the resentment that a significant percentage of the electorate felt.

FREI: And how would you have answered that anger? I mean, would you have — should you have been more angry in the campaign? Should you have channelled some of that anger?

CLINTON: I think that's a difficult question to answer because I don't think anger is a strategy, but I think I could have done more to reflect it and to be clearly sympathetic with the legitimate part of the anger. [Because] there's two kinds of anger — there was economic anxiety, where people were feeling, you know, they hadn't recovered, they weren't back on a track to be economically self-sufficient, successful. Then there was all the cultural anger on race and immigration and [the rest].

FREI: But there's also anger against you. People really hated you; they were driven to the polls by hatred of Hillary.

CLINTON: ... They really did a job on me, Matt. And I was not as successful in beating it back. And of course then they had the help of the Russians, which, you know, was something unprecedented.

Frei questioned why Clinton got as few white female votes as she did, to which Clinton responded:

. There were three things at work. One, a long problem with democratic nominees and white voters, period. That goes back to my husband, and before. Secondly, there was a lot of anxiety about my vote share among white voters, in part because I was standing up on race and guns and things that are quite culturally controversial. And then finally, I would say, I don't blame voters for not voting for me; they were given a lot of wrong information, and the critically wrong information came right at the end, as I write in the book, from this letter by the FBI director, Jim Comey...I was winning, and then my momentum stopped, and the numbers dropped.

The exchange continued:

FREI: But one could say that you should have really got almost every female vote in the country, after the fact that Donald Trump was openly misogynist.

CLINTON: Yes he was, and there's no doubt about that.

FREI: I mean, how did you not get every female vote in the country?

CLINTON: Well, because gender doesn't yet serve as the kind of motivator for voting that race has in our country.

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

You guys have it all wrong. Chelsea said that she tried to care about money, but she just can't. I mean, you don't think she could look into the camera with a straight face and lie do you? Who could she have ever have learned that from? Roll Eyes

Honestly, if I were her, I'd just say, "Hell no. I'm happy to take that bastard's money and use it to do some good in the world. Why would I give it back to him? So he can pay his lawyers with it?"
