Christine Blasey Ford is pretty damn close to being a millionaire now.
THAT’S what happened.
She used her freaking testimony to DROP A HINT about giving her money.
…and it worked. Just two of the SEVENTEEN accounts set up for her have brought in nearly $700,000.
According to Daily Wire:
GoFundMe donations for Christine Blasey Ford have skyrocketed since the she mentioned the campaigns during Thursday’s hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Answering questions concerning the funding for her legal team and travel since the allegations became public, Ford mentioned that she’d be collecting money donated to her from GoFundMe accounts. “I’m aware that there’s been several GoFundMe sites,” she said. “I haven’t had a chance to figure out how to manage those because I’ve never had one.”
One such account dedicated to Ford “jumped from about $179,000 to $305,000 and counting merely 30 minutes later, according to the publicly displayed funds counter,” reported MarketWatch on Thursday.
But what could she POSSIBLY gain from any of this?!
You know. Other than liberal hero status and significant wealth?
And probably a 3 million dollar book deal.
And a speaking tour.
WHAT ELSE COULD SHE POSSIBLY GAIN?!
Those numbers have since spiked further. One account has collected over $475,000 for Ford’s legal fees and another has brought in over $200,000 for the accuser’s “security costs.”
Ok then.
So she’s a GoFundMe millionaire.
Got it.
During the testimony, Ford’s lawyers Michael Bromwich and Debra Katz said they were working pro bono and disclosed that they had paid for their client’s polygraph test after Ford said she did not know who paid for it.
So um… about that $475,000 for ‘legal fees’ …does she get to keep that?
Yeah. Yeah, she does.
