The former Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton not only predicted a second Trump run, but also a potential win by the former president which, according to Mrs. Clinton, “could lead to the end of our democracy.”
Clinton — who lost the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008 to then-Senator Barack Obama of Illinois before becoming the party’s nominee in 2016 — was defeated by Trump in what was seen as one of the biggest political upsets in modern political history.
“If I were a betting person right now, I’d say Trump is going to run again,” she told Sunday Today host, Willie Geist. “He seems to be setting himself up to do that, and if he’s not held accountable, he gets to do it again.”
“I think that could be the end of our democracy,” she said. “Not to be too pointed about it, but I want people to understand that this could be a make-or-break point. If he or someone of his ilk were once again to be elected president, especially if he had a Congress that would do his bidding, you will not recognize our country.”
