Failed Democratic Nominee Hillary Clinton pulled out all the stops for her presidential campaign. The New York Post reported that in the end, her campaign spent a total of $1.2 billion attempting to land her in the oval office.
Billions of dollars were completely wasted, and it’s no secret that there are an unimaginable amount of things that could’ve put that mass amount of money to better use.
Here are five things the money that was wasted funding Clinton’s campaign could’ve been used for instead.
- One year of health care for 115,998 Americans
Clinton bragged about her pal, President Barack Obama’s health care system, which has actually been costing the government astronomical prices for years.
According to PBS, health care in 2016 cost the government $10,345 per person insured. Clinton could’ve covered the cost of health care for 115,998 Americans throughout 2016 with the money she wasted on her failed campaign.
- Care for 1,135,288 Syrian refugees
Throughout her campaign, Clinton made it clear that she wanted to help Syrian refugees. It turns out, had she focused on their needs instead of her White House dreams, she could have helped over one million of them!
The Center for Immigration Studies reported that the UN High Commissioners requested $1,057 to care for a single Syrian refugee annually in most countries neighboring Syria. Dividing her $1.2 billion by the comparatively meager amount equals 1,135,288 Syrian refugees who could’ve put her funds to use.
- Fronted taxpayers’ bill for President Barack Obama’s family for a year.
According to Robert Keith Gray’s book, “Presidential Perks Gone Royal,” Obama and his family cost taxpayers approximately $1.4 Billion a year, putting Clinton just shy of paying for the entire first family, and saving taxpayer dollars!
- Fed about 6.5 billion hungry children for a year
The World Food Program reports that it costs just 50 cents to feed one child for a day, putting a child’s yearly food costs at $182.50. Had Hillary used her campaign money to feed the world’s starving children, she could’ve fed 6,575,342 children in a years’ time.
- Paid for all of Obama’s vacations 17 times
Judicial Watch reported in January that all of Obama’s vacations had at that time amounted to $70 million over his entire presidency. His vacations had become a focal point of his critics, claiming he spent more than most other presidents on leisurely trips.
Little did Clinton know, she could’ve relieved her buddy from critiques and just fronted his vacation bills for him, 17 times over! It would’ve been more effective than the failed campaign she allowed to drain her accounts.

Just very happy she didn’t achieve her goal of the Presidency – she would have really screwed things up.
Her billions are still being used to tamper with the electoral college. Many have been given bribes already. She won’t stop until dead which hopefully will be soon.
BGB isn’t that the truth. Its really sad that with her Billions of Dollars over the years since Bill was President, look how much money she could have sent how many people to College. Your right, I don’t think her and Obama Will stop even if Trump becomes President. Think of all the Millions of Dollars that Obama spent on vacations and golfing trips and the Villa in Spain. Look at how many school kids lunches would have been paid for. Look at how many out of work Families he could have helped out. All the while they act like they are the downtrodden. How sad and selfish. Well Obama has to vacate the White House and he won’t be President and She will never be President . Its said that we have to wish her harm as they won’t stop until they have someone killed or maimed. That is the Clinton way.
If they keep involving themselves in our everyday politics (Clinton and Obozo), they should hire plenty of body guards….there are a lot of enraged people out there and the ones you really have to worry about are the imbeciles creating violence in the streets because they are getting paid to do so by George Soros and the owner of Progressive Insurance (stop purchasing your insurance from this POS), once these two aholes figure out that they cannot steal the election, they will have no further use for the mindless idiots in the streets….then what can these paid protestors look forward to…..they will finally figure out that they have been nothing more that useful idiots and used….look at all the shooters of recent. With the exception of the blacks, the white shooters were ALL registered Democrats. Should make both Hillary and Barry very scared.
I can’t wait to see her put away for the good of this country..looks like she is standing by the election results..YEAHAH RIGHT..SHE HAS FOUGHT IT THE WHOLE WAY..JUST ANOTHER ONE OF HER NOTROIS LIES..
OBOZO IS GOING TO DECLARE “MARSHEL LAW’ THEY’LL KEEP PAYING THE RIOTERS
THERE WILL NOT BE AN INAUGURATION..FRIGHTENS THE HELL OUT OF ME FOR YOU
PEOPLE-HOPE MILITARY WILL STORM THE WH- AND DRAG THAT EVIL USELESS A HOLE
‘OUT’-AND FOR SURE , ARREST HITLERY AND BILL
it wont be soon enough. She belongs in jail. It would be chipper to lock her up. She would not be able to cause as much grief to us the people.
You got that right. She doesn’t know when to stop. She is a night mare. Maybe she can take our POTUS with her he is also a night mare. He sits on his brains along with her.
Hillory is one sick individual. She was so bent on being elected for the presidency, that only money, power had any meaning. You have to feel sorry for someone like her, she will never be satisfied, but God gave man a choice,
good or evil.
Kilary does not know the difference it the good, the bad way or the Kilary kill anything in her way getting of the power and money Worst that a little kid, if we don;t play by my rules I will my marbles and go home. One day she is going to look good in orange pantsuit behind bars. JG..
We will always choose evil if God does not illuminate our minds and draw our hearts to Him. Only He is truly good.
Now the lying corrupt witch is pushing her daughter into office to continue her legacy of corruption and deceit.
Very true, The Atheist B–ch will stop at nothing to be in power in some sort of way. She & her Husband are two of the most Corrupt low life’s in Washington DC, & that is saying a lot, because DC is full of low life’s !!
So true
She is an evil person and nothing will change that
I just hope her plans to take the presidency away from Trump will fail
A greedy, selfish, power hungry person.
What is wrong with our country that what she is cannot be seen by everyone? Are that many people blind? What have we become?
It’s called the dumbing down of America. Brought to you by the Dumbocrats!! Over the next few weeks when you have a chance ask someone under 30 where Vietnam Nam is!!! By a globe for your living room and ask young visitors, tough questions, like where is North Korea, or even the Pacific Ocean. You won’t believe the ignorance the democrats have brought on to our country. Remember the important stuff!!! Where’s my free shit at??????
I will tell you why Hilliary Clinton lost he election. For every time she blasted Trump, it just made “We the People” madder. Every time she showed to be ahead in the election, more of the “We the People” came out to vote. I was on a lonely dirt road, raining and cold, people aligning both sides of the road ,going to a Trump rally.” We the People” won that damned election.
Your so right. The Deplorables stood up to her and her cronies and we got out there and voted for Trump., Your right. the more that she was so arrogant, the more I couldn’t stand her. The more I worked at getting Trump Elected.
Here is my question….Clinton took money from foreign countries for here favors once she was elected….the money has changed hands and she has gotten the money, but now they will NOT get their favors and these are people who do not like to be let down….is she at risk because they purchased something from her that she cannot repay? Let’s sure hope so.
I hope that the countries that were screwed by her come to America and get there judgement or reward like have her disappear for good. Send your hit men and we will welcome them with open arms.
HIL’S, MOUTH TO THAT DARK, HAIRY PART THAT SHE LOVES.
That bitch with a wart on the end of her nose would not give I thin dime to help anyone other than her stupid husband, the lying thieving maggot.
WITH THE MONEY THAT SHE HAS, SHE COULD OF SAVED AMERICA, WELL AT LEAST PART OF IT… PAYING OFF THE DEBT THAT AMERICA IS IN… THEY SAY WE’RE IN THE TRILLIONS IF SHE REALLY WANTED TO , SHE COULD PUT ALL THE MONEY TOWARDS THE BILL…. GO BROKE AND SAVE FACE..
I BELIEVE THAT TRUMP WILL DO GREAT FOR THIS COUNTRY…. I JUST WISH PEOPLE WOULD STOP CRITICIZING HIM, AND GIVE HIM A CHANCE,….THEY ALWAYS SAID THAT ROAM WASN’T BUILT IN A DAY,, YOU HAVE TO ADMIT HE HAS DONE FAR MORE THAN OBAMA, WHICH I FEEL OBAMA SHOULD OF BEEN REMOVED FROM OFFICE 3 WEEKS AFTER HE STARTED DOING DAMAGE. BUT HE WASN’T AND ENDED UP HOLDING OFFICE 8 YEARS…. SO TELL ME WHAT WAS IT THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL HE HAD DONE TO KEEP HIM IN FOR SO LONG…?
Amen!
She isn’t done yet. She is behind the electoral college. The reason they are all upset is she paid 271 of them a lot of money to insure she wins. Why do you think she has been hifing. She is pulling strings and has set up her cabinet and court picks. She will probably steel the election. I don’t trust her. The rinos maccaine, and Paul are out to see she wins. She leaked this phoney Russian story and told obama if she doesn’t get in he will be the next mysterious death. Clintons are not to be messed with. She is very dangerous.
All of what you have said is true. We all need to pray that God will guide Trump & help him.
AMEN AMEN AMEN !!! PERIOD
being communist/muslime lover she is not capable to doing anything else!
Hillary and her cronies should all be brought to justice for the corruption she was involved in since inception into politics and she has the balls to rub it into the tax payers face saying nothing will happen to her or bill?????
One thing that was disappointing for me is that if Hillary had won she, like Trump would have disposed of Airforce One. Trump will upgrade his Trump mobile whereas Hillary would have ordered a newer model of the latest Harry Potter Broomstick. Imagine the fantastic entries into conventions that Hillary would make by flying in through a window??? She could order extra models for her entourage. Of course when she visited the Middle East she would have to use a 2 seater model broom as she would need a chauffeur as women are not allowed to drive in some Islamic countries .
At international airports the announcer would announce “Attention please! The arrival of Hillary Clinton and her broomstick brigade have just arrived at gate number 5”.
What fun!! Oh well maybe next time??
Greed has no end!
thats what j. gotti thought to…. look what happened there
She & her husband are CRIMINALS!
Thde Clinton trail of crime extend all the way back to Arkansas
The LYING OLD HAG, Can’t give it up.
She lost! It is time for her and her fellow travelers to put their bitterness behind them and move on for the good of the country. She can blame white men, the Russians, the Martians, or anyone or anything she chooses to blame for her loss. But the fact remains that she lost because of her purposed policies and her position on issues that really matter to most Americans. They tried to distract us from the issues but it didn’t work. They tried to make it all about character but many people viewed the character of both candidates as deplorable and could not bring themselves to vote for either. For that reason some chose to vote for a third party candidate while others chose to leave the leave the Presidential ballot box empty as they voted for other offices on the ballet.
For her to continue to challenge the results of the election without justification is both petty and hypocritical. What she need now is a long stay in a quiet rest home with medical supervision.
I propose the woman’s unit of a federal prison prior to being convicted of treason and then…
Yes Rodney B, I second your wish, and volunteer to pull the switch on the and then part !!!
Like my mom would say she has hair on her teeth
HOPEFULLY the Ma Barker of politics will be given her JUST due!
That money could have went to Seniors that are on Social Security that have paid into it and are paying into it. That money could have gone to Community centers, food banks, health clinics, libraries that could all use that money, it could have repaired and/replaced many bridges that need
repair and/or replacement.
I am glad, THANKS GOD, Hillary Did not win the USA PRESIDENCY. PRAY GOD FOR THE ONE HE CHOSE. GOD BLESS AMERICA.
You are right. I believe God saw to it that Trump got elected. Now we all ahve to back him & pray to God that he helps Trump bring this country back to what it once was.
If she wants to feel better she needs to get a good nite sleep accept things the american people wanted lets make america great give trump a chance .
In all fairness, any campaign ends up spending an incredibly disgusting amount of money. It’s all about getting your name out there as much as possible. Lucky for Trump, he was so vilified by the left wing loons that they covered him 24/7 giving him tons of free (albeit mostly negative) press. But as the old saying goes, “Any press is good press.” He was able to save a fortune by capitalizing on this, even while bankrolling a big part of his own campaign. In addition, he was a populist candidate and garnered large support of the common man (i.e. in smaller donations).
Hitlary on the other hand, just like Barry Hussein, had to be propped up by their puppet master globalist super donors otherwise even the bought and paid for MSM would lose interest in them. Don’t know about everyone else but I couldn’t stand to watch five minutes of her cackling when she was on TV. About as depressing as listening to John Kerry speak.
You think maybe, just maybe, they found out “don’t piss off the Deplorables”? Now we
just have to get through Jan. 20th.
SICK! Why do we think these people should be in leadership positions at all? She’s not a leader–just thinks she is smarter than everyone else. Not so. Content of character is very important and hers is not good. Obama is just as bad. The dems are too corrupt. When will they get the hint –We do not want communism or socialism and government is not our savior. They say they are for the little guy but they certainly are not any more. She is deplorable and not fit for the Presidency.
Greed !! Like the Donald isn’t as greedy as the rest of them. Give me a break , true, the Clintons are just as greedy, but your Trump is just as BAD.
He used business laws to get more wealthy and now you supposedly conservatives have given him POLITICAL POWER TO DO THE SAME !!.
At least we knew about him. Hillary lies so much who knows what next is coming out of her mouth. She had all those paid rioters in the streets. BLM have killed a man trying to get to the hodpital. She and Sorous paid for that too.
Trump worked for what he has. The Clinton’s haven’t worked a day in their lives. been in politics since they got out of college. What ever he has done in business, he did it Leagally according to the laws of this country. Time for you to wake up, Bruce !
yeah Bruce maybe you should become a tax preparer and save yourself some cash
You ought to be dam thankful the bitch isn’t in, her plans were to rid of as many americans as she could just like Obama.
Shut up Brucie you and all the stupid demos can go k******* yourself and save the rest of us from having to listen to the stupidity you spew from your ignorant mouth.
We had a very sorry choice for President elect !! The self serving Egotistical Trump who played to the unhappy, want a change any change, against the Clinton who was such a low ethical, lying establishment hugging snake that shouldn’t be trusted with a security clearance. Why does Putin like Trump so much, why wont Hillary open up with what she told those financial bigwigs , like GOLDMAN S*CKS,behind closed doors that made her tens of thousands of dollars for a few hours of babbling ??
Sounds to me Bruce you should be the one to leave the country if you don’t like it here. The snake is Hillary and her friend Obama.
What about the 6 billion unaccounted for from the state dept. when the ***** was Sec of State? That was taxpayer money!!!
The Clintons Love Spending everyone’s money ! Just like this jerk has topped all Presidents with his vacations . And we pay for his mother in law too . What a joke ! It’s amazing these morons are the ones who cry and preach ” income in equality ” but look how they spend . Even Saunders was accused of living high on the hog with donation dollars for his campaign. The liberals honestly do not have morals but yet they suck in so many people it blows my mind . I think this election cycle has shown , as even Many democrats voted Trump , that people are opening their eyes to the hypocrites on the left . Now it’s mostly Hollywood , and these young kids , who are too dense to realize that communism is Not the Way , and I think it’s because the kids are just to lazy and unmotivated , that they wouldn’t mind living off the little govt. dole , and Hollywood is so wealthy they have the money to take care of Themselves . Just like Hitlery and obummer they control other people’s money , doling out Plenty to Themselves ….
Agree to everyone you said Dee, well said.
Remove my name from this horn news I no longer want to receive it if this is now what America has become. Racist ..hate mongering. I m looking for another country ., one that doesn’t run on profiteering and strictly business with no concern at all for its citizens
Jill: When you find it let me know. if trump can’t straighten out some of this mess I am ready to leave too, however I believe with Gods help & people backing him He just might make America Great Again !!
do you need money for the air fare ?
The right person won this election in spite of all the criminal and down right Mafia tactics the Democrats and Soros used. This rioting is a perfect example of what I am talking about. who Paid these vultures? Why isn’t there an investigation of all the rioting, looting, isn’t it still against the law??
You can bet her “charity” hasn’t spent that kind of money helpin anybody but themselves!
What I don’t understand is why Barack has not been impeached along time ago for all the crap he pulled and how is it possible that he was allowed to spend over a million dollars on his vacations which we paid for. As for crooked Hilary, she should be behind bars along side Barack. They both deserve each other….Hopefully they both will pay heavely for everything they caused.
Every day since Trump’s win, I wake up smiling that we don’t have to see either fake clinton again in the White House again!
Fake hillary, fake bill, their fake “marriage,”
the fake news, fake Times magazine calling her Madam President BEFORE the election, phoney/fake “stars” calling her Madam President,” depletion of govt emails, jesus
need we go on?
The cheating clintons got caught this time and this time they paid!!!
*Smile*
The Clintons are only out to benefit the Clintons. They were given enough rope and they hung themselves. The truth always prevails.
AMEN to CVG but they are only the tip of a political system that just want to keep their safe cushy job.
The best 3 ways to fix this corrupt system :
1> Two Term limits on all federal senators and representatives
2> Public financing of federal campaigns, get all private money out of the election system
3> All public media to get a license to operate must give equal and the same quality access to all candidates running for federal office for free.. They can air shows over the airways and be supported by commercials, I’m sure the media will find a way to survive, and they will be serving a public good which all industries and entities are required to do from time to time. Advertising is one of the biggest expense a campaign must finance, If we can cut down on this expense more qualified candidates can get in the running not just the 2 that the major parties want to cram down our throat..
well said
Neither party is for the little guy anymore…. They either take your money out from the left pocket or from the right pocket.. How else can the BIG BANKS get any Bigger and they have even after the financial meltdown of 2007-2008.
When is the Washington establishment going to STAND UP to BIG PHARMA and say enough is enough…. Why are our DRUG COMPANys allowed to sell their products in other countrys at a discount and then overcharge us to make their profits. Why are generic drug companys, paid not to compete with the major drug companys, so that the brand name can overcharge longer after the patents expire. Our politicians need so grow a set and insist that the American people will not be forced to pay more than the average price that the Pharmacieuticals get from the global market. The government is there to protect us from external and internal threats, and greedy big corporations ARE A THREAT to our economic system as shown by recurring meltdowns that keep eroding our bank accounts and earning power. Shkreli should be in jail. He went in front of a Senate Committee for raising the price of a lifethreatening drug and took the 5th… The committee should have told him it would proceed on the hearing with known facts and that if he would not explain the need for such a ridiculous increase in the price he would face criminal charges for voluntary man slaughter. As far as I know all he got was kicked out of the company but kept the millions he made while putting thousands of lives in jeopardy.. He has enough money to live happily a long time. He needs to go to jail for at least 10 years and give back all the money he made on the stock options he profited from. What about the trillions Wall Street made on the real estate bubble fom the early 90’s through 2008. How many homeowners or exowners are suffering still nom from their errant ways. Shouldn’t the big bank CEOS feel some of the pain they helped by their lax management techniques… They are CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP during the good times and gain big, WERE THEY NOT CAPTAIN OF THE SHIP DURING THAT TIME OF BAD JUDGEMENT ??
Why haven’t they felt some pain.. All their stockoption gains should go to the government and the taxpayer for causing the real estate bubble in the first place … They set the lead in how moral and ethical the company is run and then they are suppose to get feedback to make sure the company is moving in that direction. Any CEO who says he or she did not know what was going on under him, IS NOT MANAGING THE COMPANY, he is ultimately responsible !!
I just can’t think of our President crying like I understand she did
She received monies from numerous persons and leaders of other countries. I need to research just where, who and how much. Regardless, she took money from other countries and people that do not live in this country and are not Americans. NOBODY COMPLAINS ON THE LIBERAL SIDE. But there is A rumor that Putin did the same for PRES. TRUMP and all hell and a crap load of screaming foul takes place by the idiots that call themselves liberal. Make her either give the money away to some of those groups listed above or put her ugly ass in jail where she belongs.
I’m still very nervous about her. She’s up to something, this is the calm before the storm. She’s a very angry. vindictive, evil, sociopath who is not used to not getting what she wants. I have a feeling she’s not going to retire peacefully or quietly. I have a feeling somethings going to happened between now and the inauguration.
The 1.2 billion dollars does not take into account the millions upon millions received by the Clinton Foundation that the Clintons used for Chelsea’s wedding. And whatever illegal operations the Clintons used it for! It’s time to lock them up!
Or the sixth thing would have been that money could have went to her defense team to keep her raggedy hagged behind out of jail which is were she and a bunch of her cronies in Washington should be.
.And to think TRUMP has accomplished more then obummer has in his 8 years,,, and he hasn’t even taken office yet.And just look at the smile on TRUMPS face of his accomplishments. Why you’d think he was on vacation or something. He’s just having more fun then one can ever imagine….And I’m now prouder to be an AMERICAN….
I am still pray for Trump. Hillary would not stop only when she will drop dead. She has no character, of strong character knows how to lose. Soros,( original name: Schwartz) Obama Monkey, Bill the sex maniac trash ,and Hillary liar, two faces witch, are the same corrupts .They are SATAN. She is capable for anything, if she is not getting what she wants.
Now she pushing her daughter to run for presidency 4 years later .God save us from her too!!! They did not recount when Obama monkey get in with so much cheating, because Soros put him in twice, because Soros want to destroy America and Europe too. Hang them up!!! Not long time ago, traitors get Dead penalty, no pardon!!!! No court case and all kind of excuse . Soros has 4 sons, if he will drop dead his son would continue the same . They are a bunch of criminals.
Hillary Clinton’s supporters invested a lot of their money into a candidate that is totally corrupt and incompetent. I’m glad to see that these fools were separated from their money. I’m glad to see their money was wasted on a candidate that lost the election.
Thank GOD TRUMP WON and not HRC I spent a lot of time trying to make it happen I thank GOD for it every day, Long live America and Israel AMEN.
