Inside Hillary Clinton’s Secret Takeover of the DNC
“Right around the time of the convention, the leaked emails revealed Hillary’s campaign was grabbing money from the state parties for its own purposes, leaving the states with very little to support down-ballot races. A Politico story published on May 2, 2016, described the big fund-raising vehicle she had launched through the states the summer before, quoting a vow she had made to rebuild “the party from the ground up … when our state parties are strong, we win. That’s what will happen.”
Yet the states kept less than half of 1 percent of the $82 million they had amassed from the extravagant fund-raisers Hillary’s campaign was holding, just as Gary had described to me when he and I talked in August. When the Politico story described this arrangement as “essentially … money laundering” for the Clinton campaign, Hillary’s people were outraged at being accused of doing something shady. Bernie’s people were angry for their own reasons, saying this was part of a calculated strategy to throw the nomination to Hillary.”

“The funding arrangement with HFA and the victory fund agreement was not illegal, but it sure looked unethical. If the fight had been fair, one campaign would not have control of the party before the voters had decided which one they wanted to lead. This was not a criminal act, but as I saw it, it compromised the party’s integrity.“
It looks like we really dodged a bullet last November. Hillary is even more corrupt than we ever imagined. Always skirting the edge of the law while dipping into everyone else’s goodie bag.
I think you'll find that is the same now. With the taxpayers paying for trump and his lifestyle and ways of operating.
Note: Billionaires dont come cheep.
I find this funny, the dnc took clinton's money and then bitched they wanted some control of what it was spent on.
