Interesting. Hillary claims she is for the little people, provided they are millionaires.

Clinton Tone-Deafness on Display

Posted By Edmund Kozak On September 15, 2016 @ 11:19 AM In Poli | Comments Disabled

Bill Clinton is hosting a swanky birthday party at the Clinton Foundation on Friday — which costs as much as $250,000 to attend — but he doesn’t want the American people to know who is on the guest list.

“Major Donors Are Being Asked to Give $250,000 to Be Listed as a Chair For the Party, $100,000 to Be Listed a Co-Chair, and $50,000 to Be Listed as a Vice-Chair,” Politico reported Wednesday.

But despite a steady stream of scandal spilling from the Clinton Foundation, the Clintons continue to display a stunning level of indifference to bad optics.

As Politico reports: "Foundation officials also would not say how much money has been raised for the Rainbow Room fundraiser or from whom."

In light of the recent Clinton Foundation scandals, this decision is truly remarkable. In an interview with CBS News' Charlie Rose Monday, Bill Clinton insisted, "We've been as transparent as we can be. And we've been more transparent than any other foundation, more transparent than any other foundation has ever been asked to be, and certainly more transparent than anybody else in this line of work is."

The foundation's decision not to release publicly the identity of the attendees of Bill's birthday bash, however, paints a different and much more secretive picture.

"The Clinton Foundation's lack of disclosure surrounding this high-dollar event is deeply troubling and makes a mockery of Bill Clinton's claim that the foundation is 'as transparent as we can be,'" Jason Miller, senior communications adviser to the Trump campaign, said in an official statement.

"Given the evidence of corruption at Hillary Clinton's State Department, the American people deserve to know who is cutting $250,000 and $100,000 checks to the Clinton Foundation — and what they are being promised in return — while she runs for the White House," he said.
