Hillary Clinton To Trump On 2020 Presidential Run: ‘Don’t Tempt Me!’

The former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her daughter Chelsea Clinton have written a book, The Book Of Gutsy Women: Favorite Stories Of Courage And Resilience. The mother-daughter duo are on a tour to promote their book. It is no secret that Clinton and Trump share a mutual dislike for each other. On Thursday, she needled the president by tweeting, “It’s becoming a challenge to keep up with the high crimes and misdemeanors.”

The president had tweeted earlier that the former secretary of state may run against him in 2020. She tweeted back, “Don’t tempt me.” On PBS, Clinton mentioned jokingly to journalist Judy Woodruff about a possible round two with Trump. She told Woodruff, “Maybe there does need to be a rematch. Obviously, I can beat him again.”

Despite losing the electoral college to Trump in 2016, Clinton won the popular vote by three million votes.

Clinton’s advisers and friends have told reporters, she is not thinking of running for president in 2020. Clinton’s close friend and former Governor of Virginia Terry McAuliffe said Clinton will not run in 2020. “She is having the time of her life and speaking her mind,” McAuliffe said.
