Hillary Clinton is a bright American conservative politician, around whom there have been a lot of rumors and speculation lately. Who was behind Hillary's campaign? Why is the wife of the former president of the United States sick? How much and how does this woman earn?
At one time, Hillary Clinton was one of the most influential "mistresses of the White House" - cold and calculating, elegant, ambitious. She withstood all the attacks on herself and her husband with dignity, “did not fall face down in the mud” and when there was a loud scandal of a sexual nature that touched her family. Who is she and where is she from? What is remarkable about her personal life and biography? How and how much does the "heroine" of the most scandalous election campaign in America earn?
Who is Hillary Clinton
The future first lady of the United States was born in Chicago, at the end of October 1947, into a Methodist family. After the birth of the girl, her mother left her career, and her father went into a private business in the textile industry and succeeded in it. Later, Hillary had two brothers - Tommy and Hugh.
At school, the girl was one of the best, in addition to general education, she went in for sports, for her achievements in swimming and basketball she received many high awards. After school, the girl entered Wellesley College, then at Yale University Law School.
In her youth, Hillary Clinton was actively involved in social activities, headed the youth organization "Young Republicans".
With her future husband, Bill Clinton, Hillary met while studying at the university. We can safely say that they began their political career together. Moreover, it was she who made her husband the president - stubborn, purposeful, with a subtle analytical mindset. Experts are sure, if not for Hillary, soft Bill would not have been able to achieve such a high level in the development of his career. But her attempts to get into the presidency herself were unsuccessful.
Hillary Clinton's political activities
All the efforts of a woman were originally directed towards the development of her husband. Immediately after the wedding, in 1975, she created a whole program, following which, she managed to "seat" her husband in the chair of the prosecutor, and then the governor of Arkansas, and in just three years. She herself became a member of the board of the so-called "Corporation for the provision of legal services."
For the next 12 years, Hillary Clinton was a key player in the political life of Arkansas - engaged in health care, defended the rights of children, and restored and improved the education system. Everything, for whatever this woman undertakes, it turned out and was transformed.
In 1992, after her husband Bill became president of the country, she received a post in the government - heading a committee dealing with health care reform at the state level. But she did not manage to stay in this chair for a long time - the Republicans criticized her activities and forced her to leave her post.
Hillary did not lose heart, took up the protection of the honor of children and women, headed one of the largest retail chains in the country. The income of the President's wife during this period of her career significantly exceeded the income of Bill Clinton - dozens of times!
The woman's diligence and perseverance did not remain without an award - in 2000 she was a senator of the state of New York. After 8 years, she made her first attempt to become President of the United States, but she was unsuccessful. But the experience of the “first lady” allowed her to be at the helm of power for another 8 years - she headed various committees, oversaw several areas, and even managed to become an adviser to the president for some time. In 2016, she again nominated herself for the presidency, and again the attempt was a failure.
How much does Hillary Clinton make
The Clintons' average gross income, according to their income statements, is about $ 35 million a year. Spouses regularly report on how much, how they earn, at what rate they pay taxes to the state. And this rate is quite high - over 35% of all income.
During the last election campaign, Hillary willingly answered questions from voters and journalists about her social status and income. The woman claims that she and her husband came to the status of "middle class" and then to the status of "wealthy people" already in middle age.
Journalists and the public have questioned these claims. It is known for certain that during the period when Bill Clinton occupied the presidency of the United States (1993), his wife earned more than $ 250,000 annually.
In 2018, it became known that the US Department of Justice opened a case to investigate who and for what gave money to the Clinton family foundation called "Family Affair", and what these funds were spent on. During the investigation, it turned out that the couple Hillary and Bill spent fabulous sums on real estate and family events. How the investigation ended is not known for certain.
Why Hillary Clinton is sick
During the 2016 election campaign, a woman was suspected of having endocrine or psychological diseases. More than once in public, Hillary had incomprehensible seizures, reflected in her behavior and facial expressions.
Representatives of her headquarters denied the rumors. But stubborn journalists now continue to search for an answer to the question of what Hillary Clinton is sick with. They carried out whole investigations, the paparazzi were actively working, but they did not manage to catch her visiting some clinics, taking medications. Now Hillary has somewhat withdrawn from political and social activities, which provoked a new wave of questions to her.
