Why was it already clear that Hillary Clinton would no longer represent herself (hint: she's a senator)

J ohn Podesta broke hearts on Tuesday night, stating definitively that the failed presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, was not going to give a hat trick in 2020.

That was evident on January 15th. but it's nice to hear the President of Clinton's presidential campaign in 2016 saying it out loud.

"She is not running for president," Podesta told Erin Burnett of CNN. "She would have been an excellent president, but it's a thing of the past."

"She says she does not run. I take it at the word, "he said, adding that the Democratic Party had" some great candidates right now, and I think the Democratic primary will be an elephant with a lot of great ideas. "

And with only one appearance on CNN, Podesta may have finally put an end to persistent rumors that Clinton was seriously considering a comeback in 2020.

But Podesta's word was superfluous, even before his appearance on CNN, it was clear that the 2016 Democratic candidate had no intention of running for the presidency again, as an important indicator pointed out just a few weeks ago: Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, DN.Y., has announced his candidacy for 2020. 19659002] Gillibrand would never show up if she did not already know, either directly or indirectly, that the Clintons themselves had no intention of running, she is where she is today Because of the Clinton family, the former family has almost given him this seat in the Senate, all tied up with a bow, Gillibrand is their ward and the Clintons are his bosses and they both play the game.

It is true that Gillibrand had been in trouble with the former first family in 2017 while trying to please the #MeToo crowd by throwing Bill Clinton under the bus. But the senator has since tried to correct that misstep. Following a quick reprimand from the Clinton Loyalists, the senator returned to her original method of answering questions about sexual abuse by the former president, namely to redirect the conversation in another direction.

In simple terms, Gillibrand would not dare run against the massive, deeply rooted and well-funded political machine of Clinton, who made his career as a senator. She is always faithful and her remarks of 2017 were punctual.
