A lot of subjects of conversation on this forum are not the President. There are newsworthy, political, current affairs, etc. issues that are worth talking about besides being fixated 100% on ever scoop of ice cream, blob of ketchup, or misspoken word of Donald Trump.

And, when it comes to humor, memes, jokes and insults of politicians, are we limited only to those who currently serve as President? No shortage of Nixon memes, and that guy resigned going on 50 years ago, and he's been dead for like 20. We'll still see the odd Sarah Palin meme, and the mocking of her did not stop after she and McCain lost the election. Romney still gets a jab here and there.

This white knighting of Hillary Clinton is hillaryious. What is she, some wilting flower in your estimation? She's been in politics since she was a Republican and a Goldwater Girl. AuH20!!!

So, not to Hillary's election campaign, the meme was falsely and slyly implying by not mentioning "foundation".

Anyway, the Saudi Arab donations to the foundation was a mere trickle by 2014 and ceased altogether after that.

So much for a foreign power interfering in the 2016 US elections on the Democrats' side.

Oh! So Hillary Clinton was a "Goldwater Girl" in 1963. How old was she then? Yes - sweet 16.

By the time she was a college junior (1968) she supported Eugene McCarthy's anti Vietnam war campaign.

Nice trolling, 4.2.

Certainly you would never think of white-knighting for Donald Trump. :bored:

The inability to distinguish between Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation is common among Trump supporters so again, I can't really blame you, but the meme does refer to a specific claim about Hillary Clinton that was known to be false almost two years ago.

It’s a good thing we did not get Killary. She would be fighting Putin and Syria. Now Putin gets to mess up all on his own:
Syrian rebels just shot down a Russian Su-25 and killed the pilot on the ground

https://www.ac2news.com/2018/02/uranium ... -congress/

An FBI informant connected to the Uranium One controversy told three congressional committees in a written statement that Moscow routed millions of dollars to America with the expectation it would be used to benefit Bill Clinton‘s charitable efforts while Secretary of State Hillary Clinton quarterbacked a “reset” in U.S.-Russian relations.

The informant, Douglas Campbell, said in the statement obtained by The Hill that he was told by Russian nuclear executives that Moscow had hired the American lobbying firm APCO Worldwide specifically because it was in position to influence the Obama administration, and more specifically Hillary Clinton…

…Campbell added in the testimony that Russian nuclear officials “told me at various times that they expected APCO to apply a portion of the $3 million annual lobbying fee it was receiving from the Russians to provide in-kind support for the Clintons’ Global Initiative.”

“The contract called for four payments of $750,000 over twelve months. APCO was expected to give assistance free of charge to the Clinton Global Initiative as part of their effort to create a favorable environment to ensure the Obama administration made affirmative decisions on everything from Uranium One to the U.S.-Russia Civilian Nuclear Cooperation agreement.”


BUT but but Russian bots!!!!! Facebook ads are threatening our democracy!!! Lol

It's amazing that donations to the Clinton Global Initiative were able to convince all nine members of the Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States to approve the sale of Uranium One. Especially given that Clinton was never directly involved in any Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States matters according to Jose Fernandez, the former assistant secretary of state who represented the Department of State on the committee at the time.

Moscow routed millions of dollars to the U.S. expecting the funds would benefit ex-President Bill Clinton’s charitable initiative while his wife, Hillary Clinton, worked to reset relations with Russia, an FBI informant in an Obama administration-era uranium deal stated.

In a written statement to three congressional committees, informant Douglas Campbell said Russian nuclear executives told him that Moscow hired American lobbying firm APCO Worldwide to influence Hillary Clinton, then secretary of state, among others in the Obama administration, The Hill reported on Wednesday.

Campbell said Russian nuclear officials expected APCO to apply its $3 million annual lobbying fee from Moscow toward the Clintons’ Global Initiative. The contract detailed four $750,000 payments over a year’s time.
