Bill of Sale
8th July 2014
Mark Steyn follows the money.
Toronto Dominion is a Canadian bank which also operates south of the border under the amusing name of “TD – America’s Most Convenient Bank®”. It’s certainly proved remarkably convenient for Bill Clinton. TD has paid millions to the future first First Gentleman of the United States, during his wife’s tenure as Secretary of State and in her ongoing role as designated President-in-Waiting.
What exactly are they paying for? Speeches? He’s less dull a public speaker than the average politician, or average former president (Gerald Ford, say). But nothing he says would seem to merit, for example, the $525,000 TD paid Bill in one 24-hour period alone, which convenience-wise is about as good as it gets. So again: what exactly are TD getting for their shareholders by putting all this money in the Clintons’ pockets?
