Get Ready: Hillary rumored to be considering another go at the White House in 2020
Right Wing News ^ | November 29, 2016 | Cassy Fiano

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.

(TWEETS-AT-LINK)

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.

Maybe she knows it but many of her advisers and idiots like Jill Stein are egging her on all the time.

She did receive 65 million votes and counting. This is the third highest in history with the possibility she may move into second place only behind Obama in 2008.

Surely even the Dems aren’t THAT dumb to push for her again. Though their bench is thin.

Then again, Obama literally came out of nowhere.

As long as Trump keeps most of his promises and the economy isn’t in the tank, I think he wins re-election handily. Dems will have to shoot for 2024.

I do fear that 2008 version 2.0 is on the horizon, and could happen being no fault of Trump at all...but blamed on him.

She won’t run again. The post-election analysis will conclude she was a horrible candidate with negatives far too high. That won’t change in 4 years - especially 4 years of winning.

That’s all well and good, but Hillary will probably be physically and mentally incapable of even faking it in 2020. She almost didn’t get away with it this time.

She’s sick, and she’s spent. There’s nothing left.

She was a horrendous candidate. The Dems chose poorly.

It’s also rumored that the Moon is made of green cheese, but that’s as unlikely, as another “rumored” Hillary White House run in 2020. Actually, it’s MORE likely the Moon is made of green cheese than a Hillary run in 2020, though personally, I’d LIKE to see the Moon made of green cheese AND Hillary run in 2020, but alas, it ain’t gonna happen.

What Trump has to make sure of here, is to cut the head off (metaphorically of course) of the Queen vampire, or she will rise again. He must make sure she goes to jail, where she truly belongs. Sessions must pursue charges against her, as soon as he becomes AG. This is why the Dems in the Senate are going to fight tooth and tong against Sessions’ nomination, as they know he will be going after Hillary ASAP. It is his fiduciary responsibility to do so.

Tinfoil signals are the same as in 2016:
* she would run again so she could use the “politics” excuse and avoid prosecution
* the DNC can’t stop her because she has files on all of them

I believe I've figured this one out.....

This is positively brilliant!! The Hildabeast has figured out an ultimate plan to keep her ass out of prison. She promises to make the 2020 election into a rerun of the 56 election, Ike versus Adlai Stevenson times two, the man who just won WW-II versus a left-wing idiot schlamozzle whose own mother might or might not recognize him if she hadn't seen him in three days...

What Republican wouldn't jump at a chance like that? All they have to do is keep Hilda alive and healthy (and presumably out of prison) for four years and they're guaranteed a Trump administration lasting eight years and a possibility of 16 or more years of Republican rule.

Stevenson ran against Ike in 52 and then again in 56, presumably because no other dem even wanted to think about it, and was shot down in flames a second time. And then, in huge contradiction to the perceived knowledge that nobody could improve on a story like that, three or four decades later, you had Adlai Stevenson III being touted as the next savior of the demmunist party getting wiped out (in a Minn. governor's race) by Jesse the Mind Ventura who was actually running ads showing Jesse body-slamming "the evil special interest man" who, presumably, represented Stevenson.

That's the story which the Hildabeast is gonna try to improve upon.

But I’d guess the 2020 Democratic nominee will be her fellow liberal shrew, Elizabeth Warren.

Trump's fellow New Yorker, Mayor Bill de Blasio is reported to be interested in 2020.

Bill de Blasio exemplifies New Yawk Values!

That will be news to the Donald, but it's true. The Donald did not get elected based on New York values!
