Rand Paul: “Difficult” For Clinton To Run On Women’s Rights While Taking Money From Saudi Arabia


BuzzFeed
“There’s a war on women and it’s in Saudi Arabia, and frankly you can be raped in Saudi Arabia and then publicly lashed for inappropriately being in a car with a man.”


"Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul said Friday that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton “should be ashamed” of the Clinton Foundation accepting foreign donations from countries where women lack basic rights. The potential Republican presidential candidate said it would be difficult to run as the first woman to potentially be president while her foundation takes money from such countries.
“ 'I’m calling today for Hillary Clinton to return the money to Saudi Arabia,” Paul said on Concord News Radio “There’s a war on women and it’s in Saudi Arabia, and frankly you can be raped in Saudi Arabia and then publicly lashed for inappropriately being in a car with a man. I think frankly Hillary Clinton should be ashamed of taking the money and I’m calling today for her to return that money from Saudi Arabia and I’m calling today for her to return the money to Saudi Arabia, to Brunei, to United Arab Emirates, to all of these countries that don’t give women in the basic ability to have the rights in court and voting or on juries.”

"Paul called the Clinton Foundation taking money from foreign countries “an anchor that will drag Hillary Clinton down.' ” . . .
