Carly Fiorina 2016: GOP candidate reveals personal net worth of $59 million - POLITICO

Had no idea she's that 'well off' in materal wealth.
She got a huge restricted stock grant when she came over to HP, and I imagine she got tens of millions more as severance when she was canned by the Board.

She's the classic black widow. I'll give her the props that she says the right things. But there's no "truth" behind it. Could be called bad faith...

The reverse is exactly why Trump, with all his warts, is doing so well.

Here it is:

“Anyone who has watched this videotape — I dare Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, to watch these tapes — watch a fully formed fetus on the table, its heart beating, its legs kicking, while someone says, ‘We have to keep it alive to harvest its brain.’ This is about the character of our nation, and if we do not stand up and force President Obama to veto this bill, shame on us.” -Carly Fiorina

BUT!

The video of which Fiorina speaks, however, does not exist.

So it begs the question: Hey Carly! Did you watch this non-existing video?

Well Trump knows his audience very well and plays to it with nativist, birther rhetoric. However, that is going to limit his appeal beyond that group.

Perhaps some of Hillary's wealth ought to be redistributed to Carly then.

HP paid her more than $40 million to go away, half of it in severance and the other half in stock options. It is one of the largest golden parachutes for a fired, failure of a CEO in modern times.

If Che Guevera had run against Carly in Calif., Che would have won in a landsline.....Calif. is nothing more than Northern Mexico.....

Now HP says that Carly was right.

Really? Got a link to back that up, because all that comes up in a search is that one former HP board member thinks she was right. Unless I'm missing something, that's hardly "HP says Carly was right."

Carly Fiorina Says She Owes Hillary Clinton a ‘Debt of Gratitude’

''She’s a hardworking woman, she’s an intelligent woman, she has dedicated herself to public service,” Fiorina told NBC’s Chuck Todd. “It is also true, however, that she is not trustworthy, that she has lied about some key things — Benghazi, her emails, her server.”


Fiorina says of Clinton: “she has dedicated herself to public service….” Don’t think so, Carly. Like all too many politicians and so-called “public servants,” Hillary has been dedicated to protecting her husband by viciously attacking others, by enriching herself due to political influence, by endangering the country by refusing to follow email regs, by lying to the families of her victims in Benghazi that she has failed to be forthright / honest about. So Carly, to say Hillary has dedicated herself to public service when in fact she had dedicated herself to herself and her crooked husband causes me to have a lot of reservation about your judgement.
What a nice fascist reason to "BEWARE" of someone.

One may only admire those whom the extremist rightwingers tell and allow you to admire. The party of control freaks.
