There's a story in the next issue of Forbes that discusses the immense wealth of Hillary and Bill Clinton. It's true that they don't have anything like what Donald Trump has, but Hillary comes in second among all presidential candidates of either party when it comes to personal wealth. The woman who claimed to be "dead broke" just 14 years ago has assets worth between 50 and 60 million dollars according to her filings with the government. But even with these filings, there is a major problem. According to Forbes, the tax returns filed by the Clintons show that after taxes, political campaigns and charitable contributions, the Clintons ought to have a lot more than they say they do. In fact, after assuming some pretty heavy expenses for Bill and Hillary, Forbes could not account for more than fifty million dollars that the Clintons reported on their tax returns. The Forbes people tried for nearly a year to get the Clintons or their campaign staff to explain the missing fifty million dollars, but they go no answers and not even a response.
So why is it important that there is fifty million dollars that the Clintons earned but now claim not to have? Remember about whom we are speaking; it's the Clintons. Would it shock anyone to learn that Hillary has been giving money to various political leaders to buy their support for 2016? Could the Clintons be paying off women that Bill hit on in the past so that they would stay quiet in 2016? Could the Clintons have investments in other countries that they omitted from their disclosure forms? The possibilities are limitless.
If this were a candidate we could trust, then the person would be entitled to the benefit of the doubt. Hillary, however, has made a career out of telling lies and putting out misinformation. She needs to come clean NOW about where this $50 million went. As Bill Clinton said in his 2012 speech to the Democrat convention, "the math just doesn't add up."
