In the early morning hours after Election Day 2016, Hillary Clinton conceded gracefully, asking America to "give Trump a chance." That didn't last long. Months afterward, she came out swinging against the president. Last week, she called him an "illegitimate president." On Monday, she claimed he violated his oath of office by pulling U.S. troops back in Syria.
Clinton may just be trying to increase her visibility to sell her latest book, but she may also be positioning herself to enter the 2020 Democratic presidential race if former Vice President Joe Biden falters — or should I say, continues to falter.
Before you scoff, think about the current state of the race: Biden, an aging "moderate" with increasingly radical positions, is dropping as Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), a Bernie Sanders-style big government radical who riles up the liberal base, rises in the polls and in the early states of Iowa and New Hampshire. Wall Street donors who back Democrats have warned the Democratic Party that they won't write checks if Warren is the nominee — in fact, they'll consider backing Trump.
Meanwhile, Biden's many gaffes — coupled with his bleeding eye — have raised questions as to whether he's up for the challenge of going mano-a-mano against Trump. Sanders' recent heart attack is reminding Democrats that their three highest-polling candidates — Biden, Warren, and Sanders — are getting up in years.
