15. A few years before running for president in 2016

May 2021

she had been the most popular public figure in America. She finished up as Secretary of State with 69 percent job approval and 66 percent personal favorability.

It took a long time for the GOP to bring those numbers down. They had to swift boat her long and hard. People forget how popular and trusted she had become.

I don't think Trump will beat Biden in 2024, just that he will be the Republican candidate. It is 2028 when they will be well-positioned to swift boat, especially since it seems like after Democrats have been in power for almost 8 years the American people are more susceptible to falling for their smear tactics and their phony, contrived "scandals."
