Clinton is a ready-made replacement. She possesses an unparalleled resume and an unmatched depth of experience. She has consistently redefined the roles she has served, from secretary of State and U.S. senator to first lady and Childrenā€™s Defense Fund attorney. Her extensive background in domestic and international affairs is not just impressive; at a time when global politics are increasingly volatile and complex, her experience is priceless. Her continued advocacy for childrenā€™s rights and health careā€”a topic of ever-increasing importance post-pandemicā€”adds another layer of appeal.

    Itā€™s legit worth a read, the author clearly loves Hillary Clinton. Truly reminiscent of the 2016 puff pieces. Clintonā€™s positive press takes a tone like no other politicianā€™s, with lofty adjectives like ā€œmightiestā€ and unmatched.

    The author also notes itā€™s her turn still:

    Then there is the obvious, yet still historic, potential for her to become the countryā€™s first female president ā€” a milestone that unfortunately has still not been met.

    As if there arenā€™t substantially better women from Whitmer to Harris to Michelle Obama to even not quite of age Ocasio-Cortez. None of whom have ever lost to Trump before, which is nice.

    Finally, he mentions that ā€œaccording to a poll released in the wake of Bidenā€™sĀ disastrous debate, Clinton isĀ already favored to take down Trump, 43 percent to 41 percentā€. That is not a comforting lead and has a lot of room to go down when voters think ā€œthis again??ā€

    Anyway even though the author is serious, the piece only serves as humorous clickbait. Not even the DNC is bold enough to run Clinton again

      The most ridiculous part of all these hypotheticals is a really simple one: Does whichever random person want to run for president right now?

      Think about it. You werenā€™t planning on it, you donā€™t have your organization set up, you havenā€™t been considering how youā€™d govern as president in the current climate, youā€™ve just been busy doing whatever it is you do in your day-to-day. Then suddenly wham, youā€™re the nominee now! Go campaign like crazy, try to win an election against a salesman, and if you win, wow! Six months from now, youā€™re president, leader of the country for 4 years with things like Gaza on your plate. Good luck, weā€™re sure youā€™ll do fine!

      Itā€™s completely asinine. Nobody in their right mind would sign up for that, itā€™s being set up for failure.
