If Hillary Clinton were to lose, which seems all but statistically impossible, she and Bill would presumably continue to work on the Clinton foundation, providing needed help to people throughout the emerging world.

And make another cool 300 million dollars while running a charity.

I suspect she'll return to compounding her already huge fortune earned from her friends on Wall Street. Other than that I don't see her running for President again, but will be some icon on a pedestal. Who can say though.

My guess is her and her husband's speaking fees are going to go down by quite a bit now that she has no influence to sell.
 
I think for purposes of reconciliation Trump should offer her a position in his administration. Maybe ambassador to Russia. Or Syria.

Looks like the plan to get rump-rich has been derailed, but they can take cold comfort that Trump has damaged his own brand to the point that he may well be the only US President since Truman to emerge poorer than he went in. Assuming he doesn't house the entire US government in Trump hotels anyway.

Sorry, in Blind Trust hotels. <wink> <wink>

I actually feel "sorry" for her, preparing a career of 40 years...and then wake-up and realize that an idiot without experience can become prez and BEAT HER, good. How must this feel? 🙂 I hope she retires. America has spoken. America let anyone know what she thinks about establishment and career politicians. Things have gotten so bad for many people in the US that they wanted "a revolution", change on a level that a typical career politician can not bring...in fact the misery of people IS CAUSED by those people. The scripted speeches by Clinton were not convincing people that she'd bring the change people wanted.
I hope she does NOT run in 2020, rather than a fresh, younger, energetic version of Sanders would come to the scene. Of course it will depend how the next four years will go.

No way she runs again. She is probably out of politics altogether IMO. In 2020 the Dems need a young fresh face - like an Obama 2.0

Uhh no! Someone with little to no experience in business, governing, and a hard lefty or righty is not what we need.

you have a strong imagination. where did I say they should be a hard anything, have little to no experience in either business or governing? Obama was nearly 50 when he became president elect. That's enough time to acquire plenty of experience.

I have 7000 plus messages in this cesspool, I'm not a coward. Do you really think fear is what has kept me from posting here recently? You're not that stupid. I came back for a bit of gloating, plain and simple. If you don't like it then don't nominate a crook.
 
This is like what? Her second time running for President, and she still managed to lose?

Hillary should just give up the idea of running for President forever. Even if she ran a third time, her chances would be far worse than what they are this time around.

Will the DNC learn their lesson about choosing the right candidate come 2020 and 2024? Hillary will sure as fuck not run for president again, but the DNC should not nominate future candidates with those same unlikable qualities of hers'.

It's not that she managed to lose, it's that she managed to lose to Donald freaking Trump. The people of this country stood up and said "We'd rather have him!" There's no coming back from that.

And yet he didn't have any and was far left.
 
After she serves her prison sentence it's unlikely she'll have much of a future in politics.

Good riddance. Everyone was correct when they said that if the Republicans had nominated an axe murderer, he could have beaten Clinton. Likewise, the Democrats. Anyone but that disgusting piece of garbage would have defeated the other disgusting piece of garbage.

yeah but you guys thought we needed Trump so here we are.

...and now you don't think we need that? At least give the man a chance, right?

your history of running away from threads when it got too unsafe for you informs our understanding that you just couldn't handle the fact that your Trump was in a bad state up until election day. it was pretty vile in here all those months, and others didn't run (well, for the most part).

you guys nominated a crook, too, so I'm not sure what your point is there. I guess your crook was just more tolerable to some people!

If going by the popular vote then the majority of the people wanted hillary. But yea, there's no coming back from this. This was her one last chance. And she's going to be what, 74 by then?

Fear had nothing to do with it.
