Hillary Clinton Pleasantly Surprised After Finding Old $20,000 Donation Check In Coat Pocket (Onion)

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

NEW YORK—Smiling at her good fortune following the unexpected discovery, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton was reportedly pleasantly surprised Friday upon finding an old $20,000 donation check in her coat pocket. “I was just headed out the door and was digging around for my keys, and I just happened to find a 20-grand check I had completely forgotten about crumpled up in there,” said Clinton, who noted the $20,000 contribution was stuffed way at the bottom of her pocket, and speculated that it had probably been down there for about eight years. “Sometimes, I’ll find a few $1,000 checks in my pants pockets or in the couch cushions, but finding $20,000 is actually a nice little pick-me-up. It’s just a delightful way to start the day.” Clinton added that she would probably use the unexpected find to treat herself to something nice, like a round of harsh anti–Bernie Sanders attack ads in Wisconsin.

2. Onion Hillary threads need it stated in the headline. It's to hard to tell truth from fiction.

4. Hey, that stuff happens.

It's the six-figure checks that are harder to misplace.

5. I know how she feels. Sometimes I find a wad of gum in a crumpled up Post-It that

still has some flavor left. It's a nice little pick-me-up.
