Bill and Hillary Clinton have suddenly started flying commercial again. Passengers were reportedly flabbergasted when the former first couple sat next to them.
“Hillary and Bill Clinton — they’re just like us!” Yahoo gushed. The Yahoo staff apparently missed The Daily Mail’s account of the Clintons’ excursion.
Bill and Hillary’s Secret Service detail joined them on the flights, The Mail reported. Hillary reportedly hid behind armed guards while Bill posed for photos with fans.
The flights seemed more like a campaign event with the Clintons going out of their way to meet and greet their fans. The Clintons were first spotted at Washington’s Ronald Reagan International Airport on July 6.
Two days later, people saw them again at the same airport getting on a Delta flight. Pictures and YouTube videos show Bill and Hillary sitting in first class seats and pretending to be normal passengers.
Why Are The Clintons Flying Commercial?
The purpose of the Clintons’ sudden preference for commercial flights is apparently a mystery. The couple definitely has the money for private jets or charter planes.
First of all, Hillary alone is worth $45 million as data from Bankrate indicates. Furthermore, the former Senator reportedly made $12 million from speaking fees after leaving her job as Secretary of State in 2013.
Bill has far more money. The former president was paid $104.9 million for making 542 speeches between 2001 and 2013, The Washington Post revealed. To add icing to the cake, both Bill and Hillary were paid $25 million for delivering 104 speeches between January 2014 and May 2015.
Hillary Clinton Is Up To Something
The most logical explanation for the commercial flights is that Hillary is planning to run for office again.
“Hillary Clinton is up to something,” New York Post columnist Michael Goodwin noted. Goodwin believes that something is laying the groundwork for another presidential run.
That groundwork reputedly includes raising $1 million for liberal organizations working on border issues. Such fundraising is apparently an attempt to buy those organizations’ support for Hillary in 2020.
Hillary has an interest in border issues because she would need to pursue Hispanic votes in 2020. Furthermore, an obvious way to attract Hispanic votes is to criticize border security initiatives.
Has The Hillary 2020 Campaign Launched?
A leftwing judicial nominee advocacy group called Demand Justice might be a stalking horse for Hillary 2020.
Demand Justice has reportedly run media campaigns against some of President Donald J. Trump’s (R-New York) court nominees. Demand Justice is allegedly trying to raise $10 million from leftwing donors like hedge fund billionaire George Soros.
Goodwin believes Hillary is running because there is no clear front-runner in the Democratic primaries. He also believes Hillary can beat other probable Democratic candidates, like U.S. Senator Kamala Harris (D-California), Senator Cory Booker (D-New Jersey), and Senator Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont), in the primary.
History Says Hillary Will Lose Again
History teaches that it is too early to predict the composition of the 2020 presidential race. Such predictions fail because it is impossible to tell what voters will do.
In 2006, the Democrats’ clear front-runner for the 2008 presidential race was Hillary Clinton. She lost the Democratic primary to Barrack Obama (D-Illinois).
The Republicans had no clear front-runner for the 2016 race in 2014, yet they still won in 2016. The most likely outcome of Hillary 2020 is another embarrassing primary defeat.
If Hillary thinks flying commercial can help her get elected president, she is clearly delusional.
