Hillary Clinton Says No to 2024 Presidential Bid
MSN ^

Posted on 03/08/2022 7:56:07 AM PST by TigerClaws

Hillary Clinton is disappointing some politically active people. And it's not just her supporters.

The political figure the right wing loves to hate made it very clear Tuesday morning that she is absolutely not running for president again. That's a minor blow for the part of the Democratic base that wants her to make another try, but it's a bigger blow for Republicans who have raised a great deal of money over the years by warning GOPers of the specter of a Hillary Clinton presidency.

"No, no," the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee and former secretary of state said with a laugh during a "Morning Joe" interview Tuesday morning, when Clinton was interviewed to honor International Women's Day

"But I am certainly going to be active in supporting women running for office and other candidates who I think should be reelected or elected, both women and men," Clinton said.

"There's a big debate going on about the future of democracy," along with talk about the economy, climate change, health and other issues, Clinton added. "I will stay active in all those debates."

Clinton was speaking from Abu Dhabi, where she is the headline speaker at the Forbes 30/50 Summit to celebrate International Women's Day. Clinton was receiving a lifetime achievement award at the event.

After losing the 2016 general election to Republican Donald Trump, Clinton skipped the 2020 Democratic presidential primary and has remained active in politics and policy, particularly in the area of women's rights.

There has been speculation that Clinton might make a go for it in 2024, given incumbent President Joe Biden's age – at 79, Biden is the oldest president to be inaugurated – and the shaky standing of Vice President Kamala Harris in opinion polls.

You can bet that there are a lot of far lefties wishing that Pedo Joe would hurry up and cash in his chips.

Am I the only one who can see through her transparent strategy.

Like last time the Demos will struggle through a dozen or so primaries with no good candidates orexcitement. Suddenly “the people” will cry out and beg her to PLEASE run to keep Trump out.

She will ONLY change her mind and decide to enter the race at the last minute (with little or no actual campaigning, ALA Biden) and the media and cheating at the ballot box will do their damndest to push her over the line first.

Bull- her narcissism won’t allow her to sit on the sidelines. She feels destined to be the first woman president, and i seriously doubt her ego will let that go

Her plan is to get the top job without being elected.

She implied the same thing some months ago...wanted to get back into "the game of politics" without necessarily running for office. The next few months might be very interesting as things continue to come apart for the Biden administration.

She’s going to manipulate so she just waltzes into the spot at the convention. She thinks going through the primary processs is beneath her and also is too much work.

Like many others, she finds the possibility TAXPAYER dollars might no longer find the way into pockets of ‘politicians’. There’s nothing in it for her in the way of ill gotten gains.

A drained swamp is a penny poor swamp.

IIRC, she said the same when she was running for reelection as NY senator. She won and ran for president then.

Politicians lie. It is their natural state.

She probably found out that her polling numbers are just below those of foot fungus.

There’s actually a very good indicator.
For years the media has hyped Chelsea Hubbell-Mezvinsky as the future of the Clinton family in politics.
The fact that she’s running marathons these days instead of for political office tells me the Clinton “brand” is polling very poorly.

Cuomo thought so, too. And James.

Hillary can’t run.

No way to convince Americans any election she wins isn’t stolen.

Deep State needs a tabula rasa this time.

She’s just waiting to see if her stooges break in the Durham probe.

I’m betting that’s the real reason Deep State got rid of Cuomo, too.

Deep State didn’t want to lose NY, and nobody would buy the integrity of any election that sent the granny killer back for another four years.
