The Clintons have spent decades as insiders lining their own pockets and taking care of donors instead of the American people.

The charitable foundation has been scrutinized throughout Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid, but the organization has faced greater scrutiny since emails were newly uncovered showing a top Clinton Foundation donor seeking access to a top diplomat when Clinton was Secretary of State. Trump and others have questioned why the foundation accepted tens of millions of dollars from countries that discriminate against women, gays or minorities.
“Well number one, they should shut it down, number two they should give the money back to a lot of countries we shouldn’t and they shouldn’t be taking money from”, Trump said.
“America’s Mayor” Rudy Giuliani, who once served as an assistant attorney general and was a former U.S. Attorney in NY, said if it were up to him, he’d indict the Clinton Foundation on racketeering charges.
Shortly after sending out the statement Trump called into Fox & Friends where he elaborated on what he thought should happen to the charity. I mean, that money – it should be given back.
However, Trump said he wasn’t holding his breath for the Clinton’s to do so. Rudy Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City and a prominent Trump supporter, said in an interview on Fox News on Sunday that the Clinton Foundation should be indicted for being “a racketeering enterprise”.
“They took money from money launderers, criminals, dictators, people who abuse women as a matter of government policy”. “In my definition that was bribery”.
Clinton and her husband, former U.S. President Bill Clinton, have denied any impropriety, even as federal prosecutors are reportedly investigating the foundation.
The Clinton Foundation also announced last week that it would no longer accept foreign or corporate donations if Hillary Clinton wins the White House and that it would no longer convene its annual meeting.

More than half of the foundation’s donors would find themselves ineligible to contribute under new guidelines that bar foreign money, according to a Washington Post analysis published Friday.
