#2 .....but she also attended the debut of a documentary about the murder of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi.

Honing her skills ?

#3 ....I think she's aiming for a 'gray eminence' slot, where she thinks she'll be able to pull the strings.

#4 With a president committing a suicide in a month?

#6 Maybe? However, there may be a ton of evidence against her by that time from several cases being investigated (That might also be another head fake). Best decision, re-elect Trump.

#7 William Henry Harrison made it 31 days into his term before his vice president got promoted.

#8 It's time for Hillary to give it up. She had a good run - not many people take a go at being President. Although, losing to the Orange Man no doubt sticks in her craw.

But if she is determined to make people miserable, she should go be President of a Home Owner's Association, somewhere that she can give free rein to all her spite and pettiness. And leave the rest of us the f**k alone.

#10 Last person to lose the big show and then win the Presidency was Nixon. Generally if you lose, you never get a second shot.

#11 Oh what nonsense this is. Hillary? AGAIN? Dream on.

Trump has 3% unemployment. 3% growth. No new wars plus a diminution of the wars he was handled. A major trade agreement plus Mexico's capitulation re colonists.

All of the above are hugely important to the only voters who matter, the swing voters located in about 100 precincts in Michigan, Wisconsin, central Florida and western Pennsylvania. They're not going to vote for Hillary. No f---ing way.

They won't vote for Fauxcahontas or the Butt-fugger. Maybe a few would go for B.S. / Sanders; maybe others would peel off and vote for Plugz the Sniffer.

But not this worn-out, bitter, rancid, lying old hag. No way.

#12 Lichtman's 13 Keys - the predictive model that works better than all others - is below.

If any FIVE or FEWER are FALSE, the incumbent is almost certain to be re-elected:

1. Party Mandate: After the midterm elections, the incumbent party holds more seats in the U.S. House of Representatives than after the previous midterm elections. FALSE - 1

2. Contest: There is no serious contest for the incumbent party nomination. TRUE

3. Incumbency: The incumbent party candidate is the sitting president. TRUE

4. Third party: There is no significant third party or independent campaign. TRUE

5. Short-term economy: The economy is not in recession during the election campaign. TRUE, in spades

6. Long-term economy: Real per capita economic growth during the term equals or exceeds mean growth during the previous two terms. TRUE, in spades

7. Policy change: The incumbent administration effects major changes in national policy. TRUE

8. Social unrest: There is no sustained social unrest during the term. TRUE

9. Scandal: The incumbent administration is untainted by major scandal. TRUE - Dems' Shitshow doesn't count

10. Foreign/military failure: The incumbent administration suffers no major failure in foreign or military affairs. TRUE

11. Foreign/military success: The incumbent administration achieves a major success in foreign or military affairs. Neutral

12. Incumbent charisma: The incumbent party candidate is charismatic or a national hero. FALSE - 2

13. Challenger charisma: The challenging party candidate is not charismatic or a national hero. Haha - TRUE, in spades

= total of 2 False, and 6 required.

Not even close. Game over.

No wonder the Dems are floating all kinds of ridiculous, crazy, desperate sh!t.
