The Clinton Foundation Continues To Save Lives As Trump Calls For It To Be Shut Down



In Donald Trump’s latest desperate attempt to save his presidential campaign, he and his supporters are attacking a charity organization that has benefited millions of people around the globe: the Clinton Foundation.

This morning on ‘Fox and Friends’, Trump even called for the charity organization to be shut down and have the donations returned.

In reality, the Clinton Foundation, to which the Clintons have donated millions of dollars, has spent years doing work that benefits people all across the globe.

In total, the organization has helped over 400 million people in nearly 200 countries, whether by providing easier access to life-saving HIV/AIDS drugs or helping children in America have healthier food options at school.

When the MSM talks about the Clinton Foundation, can they not find ONE spokesperson that can present a positive take on what it is that they do?

My God. It would be like talking about the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and only concentrating on how much money is contributed.

Even the damn "so-called" Democrats that they have on (Ed Rendell, Ford, Axlerod, etc.) all appear to be angling for a show on Faux News.

I swear the MSM is so "effing" petrified of being accused of being "liberal" that they are fucking worthless anymore.

They don't have to go into detail, but saying they helped 400 million people in 200 countries with XYZ programs is a start. It allows them to pivot into the real question "what about the Trump Foundation?"

I'm just now suspecting there must be something to hide if he is projecting so hard about the Clinton Foundation.
