Bill Clinton on Foundation donors: "Not like I'm president and they can get something out of it"

So Bill Clinton says that he thinks it’s so cool that Giustra gave him huge piles of cash even though “It’s not like I’m President and they can get something out of it.”

We’ve shown how that’s a stupid point on account of how you don’t need to be president to help out donors. But think of what he’s admitting here. He’s admitting that if someone were president, people might give them money just to get goodies out of it. The honesty of that admission is welcome. Particularly from a Clinton.

Hillary Clinton is running for president. Her chances aren’t even bad. The Clinton Foundation is raking in money hand over fist from people who presumably are aware of this. “It’s not like I’m President and they can get something out of it,” right, Bill? But if you — or your wife — were president, they could, right?
