Since Hillary Clinton was defeated in her second run for the presidency, many have assumed that she’ll finally be going away for good. If they think that, though, then they don’t know the Clintons. Not only is Hillary not leaving the public eye, she’s already considering another run for the White House in 2020… or so the rumors go.
Sources say that Hillary’s recount efforts are just part of her long-term plan to run again in four years. And the person floating this idea is Ron Fournier, member of the White House Press Corps.

Does Hillary think that she actually has a chance in 2020, or is this just a baseless rumor? She will still have the same problems in 2020 that she had in 2016. The DNC did everything they could to get her into the Oval Office, and they failed miserably. Will Democrats want to line up behind Hillary again? Streiff at RedState says yes. “…you can never go wrong by betting on Bill or Hillary Clinton to engage in craven opportunism,” Streiff wrote. “[T]he DNC is owned and operated by the Clintons. It is staffed by Clinton loyalists. It floats on cash raised by the Clinton fundraising apparatus. As we saw this year, if Hillary Clinton decides to put in her dentures, pull on her Depends, and make another White House run in 2020, no one in the DNC is going to stand in her way.”
Even if theoretically, Democrats are willing to give her another shot, will actual voters feel the same way? Donald Trump polled as less popular than she did, but not by much — voters didn’t like Hillary. Many of them were bitter and angry at having Hillary shoved down their throats. There’s no reason to suspect that would change in four years.
Technically, Hillary could run again in 2020. But it probably wouldn’t be the smartest move — not for her, or for the Democratic party.
... But I don’t even have a little dog named Toto?...
She’ll be 73.
She won’t be alive in 4 years. Just my prediction. Prison food won’t agree with her.
You can run for office from Hell?
What is it now, the 51st state? 58th if you’re obama.
They’l lhave to call on Herbert West, Reanimator to get her ready for 2020.
With a radical black muslim running the DNC!
wasn’t the solution for problems like this something about a silver stake or?
DJT needs to rethink his position on not putting her in jail and he needs to push voter ID before the midterms.
In four years her Parkinson’s Disease should be pretty well developed. She could break yet another glass ceiling.
We should really encourage her to run again. She was such a great candidate this last go around.
Don’t you have to be alive to run?
Donald Trump is about to be the oldest person to be elected president, replacing RR. Trump is 70.
She’d be 73. She wasn’t physically able to do more than a few rallies per week at age 68. She could do none at 73.
Getting old is compelling.
Further, the left wing of the party is fed up with the donor class. The black female wing of the party is fed up with whites.
Hillary will have nothing going for her. It’s not the voters who can reject her. It’s the donors. They are getting very old, too.
After she led the party to disaster in 2016, she can’t expect another coronation, can she?
Darth Vader was less obsessed.
