Decades of scandal must have left the Clintons either totally tone-deaf or inured them to perceptions of corruption — in either case, they aren’t about to allow public controversy and public outcry derail their precious gravy train.

Although Bill Clinton announced Monday he would step down from his role at the Clinton Foundation, it was reported Wednesday the Clinton Global Health Access Initiative would not join the Clinton Foundation in ending corporate and foreign donations entirely if Hillary Clinton wins the election. It was also reported Chelsea Clinton will continue to sit on the boards of both organizations regardless.

“The Clinton Foundation has been way too inattentive to the appearance of impropriety.”

One can safely add bad optics to the long list of things the Clintons have been accused of not caring about, which currently include: honesty, the lives of endangered Americans abroad, and women’s sexual consent.

When Dana Bash asked Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook Sunday why the Clinton Foundation wouldn’t cease taking foreign donations immediately, given the staggering scope of enveloping scandal, Mook gave an unconvincing response.

“It takes time when you’re in a number of countries around the world to retool, refocus the mission, and adapt,” Mook said. “They receive a great deal of funding through these streams. And it will just take some time for them to readjust.”

According to Mook, the public has been so focused on the possibility of systemic corruption occurring while Clinton was secretary of state that we forgot to think about the Clinton Foundation and how it would redirect the steady streams of money from corrupt oligarchs and Islamic dictatorships to which it is accustomed.

But even if Clinton wins the election that won’t stop her family’s charity from accepting foreign donations. Officials said Wednesday the Clinton Health Access Initiative could continue to accept donations from foreign governments and corporations, even as the Clinton Foundation turns off its foreign spigots.

Bill Clinton defended the apparent semantics. “If there is something wrong with creating jobs and saving lives, I don’t know what it is,” he told reporters on Wednesday.

As for Chelsea Clinton’s continued involvement, a spokeswoman explained the young Clinton “is committed to ensuring that those benefiting from the foundation’s work will be able to continue receiving that often life-changing help.”

Of course, to normal, regular folks, it appears she is committed to ensuring her family continues to personally benefit from the foundation’s existence, and the charity will continue to receive vast sums of money from foreign sources, now redirected to the Clinton Global Health Access Initiative.

“The Clinton Foundation has been way too inattentive to the appearance of impropriety,” Ray Madoff, a Boston College Law School professor and director of the Forum on Philanthropy and the Public Good told The Wall Street Journal Wednesday. “Chelsea clearly has access to her parents so the appearance of impropriety continues.”
