Remember the old saying, “She only opens her mouth to change feet”? Such is the case with Hillary Clinton when it comes to her and hubby Bill’s $100 million net worth.
After being ridiculed by the right and left alike over her comments that she and Bill were “dead broke” when they left the White House in 2001, Hillary now claims they are not like the “truly well off.”
During an interview with The Guardian, Hillary was asked how she can be credible on the issue of “income inequality,” considering her net worth:
Americans “don’t see me as part of the problem, because we pay ordinary income tax, unlike a lot of people who are truly well off, not to name names; and we’ve done it through dint of hard work.”
Apparently, Hillary considers multimillion-dollar book advances (written with ghost writers) and $200K speeches to be “hard work.”
Listen, I know there are plenty of Hillary-haters out there who jump at every opportunity to bash the former First Lady, but really? Could she be any more out of touch with “the little people”? Besides, she apparently hobnobs enough with “the truly well off” to view her measly $100 mil as no biggie.

If Hilary gets $200K for a speak, Tommy Flanagan must get $500K!
These morons need to shut up!
I think I saw her at the corner of a large intersection holding a cardboard sign that said:
“Can you spare some money for a cup of coffee?
I’ll need about $65 million to buy a private jet”
And just everyone has their houses put into a trust to avoid estate taxes don’t they? Unlike O this witch may lie all the time but she isn’t likable while doing so
insert insane laughter
Talk to me when you pay your own bills, otherwise do not try to pretend you are just like average Americans. If you haven’t noticed not many are falling for it, even CNN is laughing at you.
I for one want them to keep talking.
Earlier this month, Bloomberg News reported that the Clintons have used tax methods to reduce estate tax levies.
“To reduce the tax pinch, the Clintons are using financial planning strategies befitting the top 1 percent of U.S. households in wealth,” Bloomberg News reported. “These moves, common among multimillionaires, will help shield some of their estate from the tax that now tops out at 40 percent of assets upon death.”

Her followers in the media will make excuses for her with explanations of what she REALLY meant to say. The bull dike on cnn said what Hillary meant was that they pay taxes unlike a lot of people who use loopholes to avoid taxes. Apparently she hadn’t heard about the residence trust.
LOL - now that's funny...
Bill was always very talented at being charming and fake-relating to average people. Hillary’s trying to be folksy and charming but she doesn’t have Bill’s talent. She is incapable of relating to little people. The truth is she’s an arrogant b- and has been for decades. She copies Bill and tries to hide the real Hillary but you can’t fake an innate talent. The falseness shows itself when she get’s into a comfortable interview with sycophants.
