Movie: Clinton Cash (2016)

Quote:

An investigation into how the Clintons have amassed millions in personal wealth through foreign contributions to the Clinton Foundation, a supposed charity, in exchange for political favors while Hillary Clinton was the US Secretary of State.

It is adapted from a book called Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich. From what I understand the same author has several books on Reagan, Bush family, and Clintons.

It is kinda mediocre for how it is done, it gives really big chunks of information in a short amount of time so it is hard to grasp everything at first. However, it does a really good job at exposing the dark side of politics. Here's hoping #ModsWithHer don't close the thread since it exposes Clintons' wrong doings.

If she gained her money legally, I don't see anything wrong with it.

I have no moral, just like her.

Half of these statistics are fake, and the other half manipulates data into things more malicious than what they are.

By being educated.

The individual facts are largely true and based on widely reported events and public documents. The conclusions, however, are not as cut-and-dried as the film makes them out to be when assembled together. In general, the film’s reasoning is that if one thing followed another, it was a case of cause-and-effect.

Clinton campaign officials did not respond to a request for comment about the film, but they were harshly critical of its source material. “A new book by Republican operative and friend of the Koch brothers, Peter Schweizer, makes a number of wild accusations about Hillary Clinton—so wild that even the author admits he has no evidence to support them,” the campaign said last year.

The film carefully curates reality in way to boost anti-Clinton voices. For instance, discussion of Bill Clinton’s role in post-2010 Haiti earthquake completely ignores that George W. Bush also helped raise cash in the wake of the disaster, nor does it acknowledge that one character, the founder of Canadian TD Bank’s sister corporation, TD Ameritrade, also funded Republican Gov. Scott Walker’s super PAC. The film doesn’t mention other reasons why Hillary Clinton may have made particular decisions, leaving the viewer with a narrow understanding. And it blurs the line between Bill and Hillary Clinton’s actions, treating them as essentially the same person.

So if I help some company do some shady business and my brother ends up on their board is not a case of cause-and-effect, nice to know.

It is obvious some shady business went down and the writer of the piece admits it by saying

but the conclusions are false? Seriously how hard it is to connect the dots for that writer or for you that for that matter?
