"I'm with her".

Asked if she would run for president in 2024, Hillary answered:
“No, out of the question. First of all, I expect Biden to run. He certainly intends to run. It would be very disruptive to challenge that.”
For anybody who speaks Clintonese, that’s close to a declaration of candidacy! Had she said, “No. no way” and shut up it would be different. But by tying her denial to Biden running again, knowing full well that he won’t, she is basically declaring her candidacy if and when Biden drops out.
Hillary for President III?
Here’s how it could unfold:
Step One: Biden’s frailty and senility become hard to ignore and speculation that he’s too old and too out of it to be president multiplies.
Step Two: The Democrats get massacred in the ’22 election losing both houses, losing the Senate by 55-45, and losing key governors’ races in New York, Georgia, North Carolina, Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.
Step Three: Shell shocked by the results, the party elders –including Pelosi and Schumer — go to the White House and give Biden the bad news: “You must withdraw from the 2024 contest. We will let you stay in office,” they say, “We won’t invoke the 25th amendment, but you have to say now that you’re not running in ’24. We can’t go through another two years with you as the ostensible leader of the party.”
Step Four: It becomes clear that Harris is too weak politically to be the consensus nominee and her poor polling shows it. With Harris polling in the low 20s and unable to unite the party, she follows Biden and announces that she won’t run in ’24.
Step Five: Unleashed, the left wing of the Democratic Party demands that its candidate head the ticket. But Sanders is too old and Warren too unpopular, so into the vacuum steps AOC.
Step Six: The establishment candidates, Pete Buttigieg for the whites and Cory Booker for the blacks, are unable to maintain large enough vote shares to counter the rising influence of the left. Fearful of massive defeat, the Democrats implore Hillary to enter the race since he is the only one who polls well and can save the party from the extreme left as she did in 2016.
Step Seven: A primary ensues and rapidly comes down to AOC versus Hillary. AOC wins most of the primaries and Hillary corals the super delegates. After a bitter floor fight at the convention, the party changes its rules and frees the superdelegates to vote as they wish, unbound by how their state voted in the primary. With super delegates free, Hillary wins the nomination.
Step Eight: it is one of the most one-sided elections in history and Donald Trump becomes the 47th President of the United States.
Hillary joins the ranks of Henry Clay, William Jennings Bryan, Al Smith, Thomas E. Dewey, Adlai Stevenson, and Hubert Humphrey as three-time losers.
Go suck some toes attention whore.
As terrible a campaigner as Hillary was, Biden created a new template in avoiding campaign appearances or putting actual effort into running for office. The media has shifted so far away from even bothering to try to appear neutral that they would gleefully cover for her, and you can forget any wide coverage of her many illegal activities while in office and the russiagate hoax after she lost as "old news".
With all that said, she can only really enter the scene as a savior of the Democrat party, she can't be a part of a contested primary amd risk seeming weak. The Clinton years were thirty years ago, she becomes more of a relic of history every year. The younger elements of the Democrat party are going to be shoving the old guard aside in coming years, and they are already going to be put off by old candidates because of Biden's failures.
Run?
She’s too entitled to do such a thing, but if called upon, she’ll take the Democratic nomination.
Two thousand ‘mules’ had better get ready since she has a temper and knows how to toss a lamp.
Can we start carrying around Hillary heads for funsies now?
“Newsom”
He might have 5% name recognition among Democrats in Philadelphia.
Hillary will milk her ‘white privilege’ to the end of her days.
I think Jared Polis might run.
Was Joe the best the Democrats could field?
No
Was Joe the best-known Democrat not defeated by Trump?
Yes
AOC. Blacks have had their shot and aren’t going anywhere, but Democrats are bleeding Hispanics. And the chance to have two telegenic Deep State puppets on the ticket at once will be too much to pass up. They know they need TV appeal to beat celebrity Trump.
“shoving the old guard aside in coming years”
AOC and her highly pigmented associates will have to await several funerals since name recognition sells.

“Blacks have had their shot”
Blacks are about 25% of Democratic voters and expect ‘respect’.
That would make a nice video game.
And you could have “Whack a Bimbo” from the early Clinton years as a mini-game in it.
SURE!!! Not gonna run. Why did you come out of your coffin just now? She is on every democratic media outlet non stop for months.
People here were talking this same stupid crap two years ago. This is the same idiot who predicted a Romney landslide in 2012.
It’s still her turn to be president.
If she can convince Howard Stern to join her ticket, she’ll be able to blame the cabbage smell on Fartman.
Maybe they will just keep her in the Bacta tank this time. I’m sure they could make it portable. Like the popemobile.
“The Obamas will end Hillary’s pursuit of the White House.”
Talk-show host Jesse Kelly opines that Eric Adams (NYC Mayor) will be the nominee. A better face than Obama, without all the negatives.
