When Hillary Clinton first announced her decision to run for president in 2016, the Democrat gave an infamous interview in which she claimed to be “dead broke” after leaving the White House in 2001.
Hillary was rightly criticized for such an out-of-touch comment and we now have some more evidence which proves Hillary and Bill have never been “dead broke” since entering the public arena.
Most families who are “dead broke” don’t have the resources to spend nearly $1.3 million renovating two homes but the Clintons do.
From Daily Caller:
The Clinton’s purchased the first property in Westchester Country for $1.7 million in 1999, one year before leaving the 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. This property was integral in Hillary’s run for the Senate, as it allowed her to claim residence in New York state. To date, the couple has spent some $376,000 in renovations that include a $100,000 dollar porch and new kitchen (both added in 2001), the Post reports.
The next year they added a $56,000 swimming pool and a $45,000 gym and library.
While they spent over $400,000 improving their New York estate, the Clintons spent over double that on their Washington, D.C., residence.
The Clintons purchased their D.C. home for $2.85 million in 2000. They have spent almost a million dollars alone renovating this property, spending $908,347 over the past sixteen years. The couple added another story onto this property to the tune of $833,927, and a pool house for $45,000 while they were at it, according to the Post. They also installed a personal use elevator in the property in 2001.
How can Hillary ever claim to be the candidate fighting for the working people when she flatly lies about being “dead broke” while spending more than $1 million renovating multiple homes? She is a hypocrite!
Do you think Mrs. Clinton can ever be trusted to tell the American people the truth if she so blatantly lies about her own life? Share your thoughts below!
