Victor Davis Hanson: Hillary Clinton Fatigue Sets In

[Geee]

Investors Business Daily:

Hillary Clinton's second race for the presidency is only about a quarter through, but she already seems to be causing general fatigue.

 

The lurid revelations about the Clinton Foundation proved that it was not so much a charity as a huge laundering operation. Quid pro quo donations from the global rich and powerful fueled the Clintons' jet-setting networking.

 

In between political campaigns, the foundation provided sinecures for out-of-work Clinton politicos. This is hardly proof of Hillary's grassroots progressivism.

 

Then came Clinton's email fiasco. No one knows how the current investigation of her alleged misuse of email accounts, servers and classified information will end up. But most people accept it was an unnecessary and self-induced scandal, brought on by her paranoia and habitual expectation of being exempt from the law.

 

ABC News just disclosed that ex-president Bill Clinton sought huge speaking fees from foreign governments (well over a half-million dollars per talk), while Hillary was secretary of state. Unfortunately, some of his proposed speaking deals involved odious regimes like those of Congo and North Korea.
