Rat: Hello. I'm Rat, and I'm running for office. Man: I really don't' care about politics. The whole thing seems rigged. Rat: Wait. Do you like your couch? Man: Yeah. Rat: Is it bought and paid for? Man: Yeah. Rat: Well, so am I. Man: I'm going back inside.

Half the adults and three quarters of all the children in the entire world who have AIDS get their meds via the Clinton Foundation. Yes, they get large donations—but it’s what they do with it that matters. Donors and amounts are all listed publicly. Compare that to Trump, whose Foundation has not had a penny from his own pocket in nine years, which funnels donations from other charities into things to personally enrich Trump, including a Tebow helmet and a ten-foot portrait of..wait for it…Trump. And which included Pat Bondi’s bribe not to go after Trump University, and that’s now under criminal investigation.
