But if the presidency was stolen from Mrs Clinton by Trump and his Russian handlers, why aren’t the democrats demanding that she be given the nomination without opposition to settle the score with OrangeMan and at least give her the “second term” run? That seems the only fair way to handle it. Something smells.

My guess is that the Democrats (both the grass root and power structure varieties) are sick of the Clintons in general, and Hillary in particular. The clowns are lining up for two reasons:

1) They hope that lightning strikes. When Bill Clinton jumped in in 1992, George Bush was very popular. Many of the leading Democrats, like Mario Cuomo and Jesse Jackson sat out, giving lesser lightweights like Clinton and Paul Tsongas the field. Ross Perot enters as an third party, and Clinton wins. He probably would not have been nominated in a different year.

2) It gets their names out there for 2024.

The clowns perceive that Trump is potentially beatable, hence they are coming out of the woodwork. Clowns coming out of the woodwork? Sounds like a Stephen King novel.
