Following confirmation that Clinton was not running for president in 2020, Trump shared his thoughts about the news in a sarcastic tweet. But instead of using her own words to hit back at her former opponent, Clinton let a not-so-subtle meme do the talking. “‘(Crooked) Hillary Clinton confirms she will not run in 2020, rules out a third bid for White House.’ Aw-shucks, does that mean I won’t get to run against her again? She will be sorely missed!” Trump, 72, tweeted on Tuesday afternoonthis link...
