Clinton Staff Skips Town Before Paying Rent

A New Hampshire landlord who rented property to the Hillary campaign for 5 days says that he hasn’t been paid, and no one will return his calls.

Rochester physician Terry Bennett said he rented a city building to people who worked for Sen. Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign ? and skipped town without paying the bill.

Making matters worse, Bennett said, the 3,000-square-foot building at 236 Union St. was left trashed. Campaign signs were left lying all over the place, he said.

…Whitney, with the firm of Keller Williams Coastal Realty, confirmed the building was not left in good condition.

“We had to pick up after them,” he said.

…When the group did not give him a check for the amount up front, as per the agreement, Whitney said, he gave them the benefit of the doubt.

“But they packed up and left,” he said.

“They left enough trash for a small army,” said Bennett. “We filled two of those big black trash bags with what they left. There might still be a 4×8 Hillary sign there we pulled off the fence.”

Classy.

This is nothing new for the Clinton’s. Clinton staffers trashed the White House, and did $20,000 worth of damage, on their way out in 2001.[1] The pattern is clear: whatever the Clinton’s occupy, they destroy. Let’s not give them another chance to trash America.
