I don’t know whether Hillary’s claim of being broke is accurate or not.
But I do know it’s quite possible. Bill and Hill incurred huge legal bills to defend themselves against the various investigations launched against them by their political enemies. Those ran into many millions of dollars, though some was paid by fundraising.
Now note that I’m not saying those investigations were not warranted. I’m merely pointing out that the “other side” was tapped into the bottomless well of government funds.
When the government goes after somebody, unless he is rich in the billionaire sense, it will eventually bankrupt him. All I’m saying is that this ability of those in control of government resources to investigate at government expense, while requiring the person under investigtion to provide legal defense at his own expense, is an awesome power and very prone to possible abuse.
Investigate a guy long enough, and he’s financially destroyed, at no cost to you.
BTW, I DO know what it is to be broke. I have at times sat by the phone willing it to ring, so I could get a job and buy dinner for my child.
Now that is broke.
So if being broke was really an issue why did they but TWO multimillion dollar houses?
I’m pretty sure if not positive that a bunch of liberals got together and paid off their legal bills.
