Clinton’s Speaking Fees — No Corruption; She’s Generous
February 28, 2016 by Steve Stoft
Over the negative din of politics, it can be hard to hear what’s positive. Hillary Clinton has given $17.6 million of her speaking fees to charity (see below). That’s 26 times as much as she made on her three Goldman Sachs speeches combined, or 50% more than she made on her 51 speeches in 2014 and 2015. Before presenting the details, let me summarize.
Note that this is extremely well documented with FACTUAL links.
Please, no trolling.

- Her fees were not the least bit unusual given her stature.
- Over 100 lesser known Americans are also in the $200,000+ category.
- The Goldman Sachs fees were below her average fee.
- She gave $17.6 million of her speaking fees to charity.
- Charging Goldman Sachs less would have just meant more profits for them and less for charity.
