Money doesn't always buy you the white house (vote, campaign, Clinton)

Reading this I laugh because I remember one of the things media was touting how Trump could not possibly win because Clinton out spent him using 1/2 billion on her campaign Trump spent about 250 million. I'm not sure if that includes all the PAC money spent I wonder if they want a refund.


Trump spent about half of what Clinton did on his way to the presidency

I see this as the positive that came out of the election, it proved that the position was not bought this time at least.

Hillary paid seat fillers, protesters and the media and still couldn't win. Good news for our country!

Money isn't what so many claim. What happens is the money decides who they think will win and the money goes there. One can argue it's there to buy some influence but as I've argued for years and as was shown Tuesday, money does not get to cast a single vote.
