Twice failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton vowed to stop Trump from returning to the White House by playing a bigger role in Joe Biden’s 2024 presidential re-election campaign.
Hosting a fundraiser for Joe Biden at her Georgetown home, Clinton seeks to expand her role in the battle to stop Trump from being re-elected.
Last month, members of the Women’s Leadership Forum convened at Clinton’s home in Washington, D.C., to raise over $1 million for Biden.
Clinton has been gradually increasing her presence in the Biden campaign, while former President Barack Obama is doing the same amid Biden’s low approval ratings.
NBC noted Clinton is creeping back into the political limelight.
“On the final Monday in November, in a Washington home stately enough to have a name — Whitehaven — members of the Women’s Leadership Forum raised just shy of $1 million for President Joe Biden’s re-election effort. Their host: Hillary Clinton.
Two weeks earlier, Clinton published an op-ed in The Atlantic that forcefully made the case for Biden’s approach to the Israel-Hamas war, putting her credibility on the line as progressives demanded a cease-fire. And two weeks before that, at a Columbia University panel on the anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Clinton shut down a heckler who asked her to comment on Biden’s “warmongering.”
In those moments, in an interview on “The View” and in social media posts, the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee is stepping into a role as one of the most prominent and influential surrogates in Biden’s re-election effort. As a former secretary of state, she has the bona fides to provide Biden with a measure of political cover amid a war in the Middle East that has split the Democratic Party.
Clinton is popular with women and key parts of the Democratic base and remains a fundraising draw who can help ensure Biden has the money to get his message out. There is still a two-for-the-price-of-one theme when it comes to her family: Husband Bill Clinton made a cameo at the fundraising event at their Washington home.
Clinton’s role is only expected to grow in the new year, but for now, she is filling a space that former President Barack Obama will join at a later point in the campaign season. Obama’s habit is to plunge in closer to Election Day — a reality that rankles some Democratic strategists who say the party sorely needs him right now.”
However, Clinton’s participation in Biden’s 2024 campaign does not create good optics amid the
open prosecution of Trump amid the Democrat’s accusations that he interfered with the 2020 election.
However, Clinton herself denied Trump was a legitimate president, claiming her 2016 loss was due to fraud,
Last month, reports revealed Hillary Clinton is among the Democrats’ top picks for the party’s primary if President Biden drops out of the 2024 race.
The Daily Fetched reported:
Out of the 2,000-plus respondents to the Harvard-Harris poll, many expressed doubts about Biden’s mental fitness to serve, while others said he is worsening rather than improving as president.
Around three in five likely voters said Joe Biden should not run in 2024.
There were, however, pronounced partisan differences, with 33 percent of Democrats compared to 81 percent of Republicans and 66 percent of Independents expressing the same view.
Strong majorities across the political spectrum agree that the country needs “another choice” to go against former President Donald Trump.
Pollsters asked Democrat voters who their pick would be if Biden opted out of the 2024 race.
Their top pick if Biden drops out in 2024 was President Kamala Harris (24 percent), with Hillary Clinton coming in second with 13 percent.
The following picks included:
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) (10 percent)
California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg both with 7 percent each.
