In an interview with WABC’s John Catsimatidis, Bill Clinton’s Former Adviser Dick Morris said that “there’s a good chance” Clinton runs again, likely against former President Donald Trump, if Democrats lose Congress during the midterm elections later this year.
“Hillary has set up a brilliant, brilliant strategy that nobody else is able to do,” Morris said.
“What she’s done — at a point at which no Democrat is willing to come out and criticize Joe Biden, but all Democrats are disappointed with him and have to realize the ultimate correctness of our accusations that he was incompetent to be president — she has set up a zero-sum game with him,” he continued.
“The worse he does, the better she does because she’s positioned herself as the Democratic alternative to Biden,” Morris added.
The Daily Mail noted:
Morris also claimed Clinton, 74, has portrayed herself as the opposition to the extreme left and cautioned her own party to be cognizant of the candidates they’re running in what she refers to as “purple districts.”
That appears to be an attack on ‘woke’ progressive policies that have been blamed for turning many centrist Dems away from the party.
The former political advisor alleged, “there is only one person capable of that level of thinking — and that’s her husband, Bill.”
“Hillary can say ‘go to hell, I don’t care about you guys. I’m going to be the anti-Christ, I’m going to run against you.’ Therefore, she’s the only one between now and the end of the midterm elections who’s prepared to say what the truth is,’ he added.
“She staked out a ground, not on ideological issues, but on pragmatism,” Morris said.
Morris said that Clinton is positioning herself to be a change candidate for the Democrats after the “left-wing took over the party and led us into disaster in the 2022 midterms.”
“The person who staked out the turf first and owns the turf in the Democratic Party is going to be Hillary. It’s a brilliant, brilliant strategy,” he said.
