Hillary 2020? Clue: Clinton’s Campaign Still Active and RAISING Money
Hillary Clinton isn’t just raising hell on her endless “Why I’m not president” excuse tour. She’s also still raising money via her campaign, helping fuel speculation that she may be entertaining a third White House run.
As the Washington Standard reports, “According to the FEC, Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign is still active, and it actually raised $165,902.73 during the first six months of 2019. During that same period of time, the campaign spent $131,112.68, and that left her with a war chest of $650,264.43. That isn’t enough to win the Democratic nomination, but it would certainly be enough to get another run for the White House off the ground rather quickly.”
Moreover, with “impeachment mania reaching a fever pitch in Washington and with the Biden campaign fading, Hillary may sense an opening,” the Standard theorizes. “She had a full slate of media appearances scheduled for this week, and so far she has done nothing to dispel the rumors that she may be getting into the race.”
The Standard isn’t alone in thus conjecturing. American Thinker’s Doris O’Brien opines today that Clinton does have the hope “that through some third-time’s-the-charm magic she could at last realize her dream of becoming the first female president of the United States.” The site’s editor in chief, keen Clinton watcher Thomas Lifson, wrote last Thursday that “Clinton is out there doing TV interviews, slimmed down and no longer wearing tent dresses, and looking ready for action. My wild guess is that she will enter the race.” And another Thinker writer, Bill Shanefelt, assuredly stated Friday that “Hillary’s going to get in.”
Also registering certainty is former chief strategist for President Trump, Steve Bannon. On Fox Business on Monday he said of Clinton, unabashedly, “She is running. She’s just trying to decide how to fit her way in.” Bannon’s theory (video below) is that the Democrat field is currently weak enough to give Clinton an opening.
