Is it too soon to start planning for a 2020 White House bid?
Not if you are Hillary Clinton, apparently.
Despite a rousing defeat in the 2016 presidential election, not to mention a failed run in 2008, the former Democratic presidential nominee is rumored to be keeping her “options open” for another shot at the Oval Office in 2020, TheBlaze reported.
Clinton supporter and a member of the White House press corps, Ron Fournier, posted the tidbit Monday on Twitter.
Raising doubts about legitimacy of election, even w/out overturning result, is part of Clinton’s plans to keep her options open for 2020

Of course, his followers were intrigued and questioned the source of the information.
@matthewjdowd people close to her disagree. Perhaps they’re projecting.

@ron_fournier @matthewjdowd Cite your evidence for saying this. I’ve neither heard nor read anything of the sort.

Fournier cited “sources close to” the former secretary of state.

Would voters and supporters be willing to go another round for the embattled Clinton? Would the Democratic Party, which presumably would have taken some steps to recovery four years from now, want to back her again?
Megyn Kelly: Why does Trump have to ‘make up information’ that he won the popular vote he lost?
Clinton in 2020 is completely possible, according to RedState’s Streiff:
“You can never go wrong by betting on Bill or Hillary Clinton to engage in craven opportunism. Third, the DNC is owned and operated by the Clintons. It is staffed by Clinton loyalists. It floats on cash raised by the Clinton fundraising apparatus. As we saw this year, if Hillary Clinton decides to put in her dentures, pull on her Depends, and make another White House run in 2020, no one in the DNC is going to stand in her way.”
Someone will, and that someone is you. Rest. Refuel. Read. Relax. We are still with you. @hillaryclinton #ImStillWithHer #hillary2020 https://t.co/sib9PhfJ2h

But along with Clinton’s leaked emails and many scandals, she was as wildly unpopular as Donald Trump with many voters.
Twitter users were not quick to embrace the idea or its credibility. And a new campaign slogan was also birthed.

Hillary Clinton says she might run again in 2020. Has the Democratic Party learned absolutely nothing?

@ron_fournier I say this as a huge Clinton fan: That’s just nuts. She knows she’s done.
— Ravi Nanavati (@fpgeek) November 28, 2016
@ron_fournier Her day has faded. Could she make noise in 2020? Of course. And Republicans would love to hear it.

@ron_fournier Ridiculous! She is ambitious, but not delusional. Even if she wanted to run again, Dems would never choose her.

@ron_fournier @gabrielmalor how many elections does she need to lose before she takes the hint?

@theblaze Fabulous news for the GOP! If we could run against HRC every cycle we would never lose a national election.

@ron_fournier Come on. She could barely walk this year. What kind of physical shape will she be in 4 years from now?
