Hillary Clinton has predicted that Donald Trump would try to become the president in 2024, describing it as a “make-or-break” moment.
Clinton, a Democrat and presidential candidate in the 2016 U.S. Presidential election where she lost to Trump said in an interview with Willie Geist, that would be broadcast on Sunday, that another Trump Presidency would have grave consequences.
“If I were a betting person right now, I’d say Trump is going to run again,” she said.
“But I want people to understand that this is a make-or-break point.”
She asked: “Are we going to give in to all these lies and this disinformation and this organized effort to undermine our rule of law and our institutions, or are we going to stand up to it?”
Clinton also revealed that she did not read a concession in 2016 when she was defeated by Trump because she did not prepare one, she had thought a win was possible.

“Even though we had a lot of bumps those last 10 days, I still thought we could pull it out so I worked on a speech that really was about my journey and had a real emphasis on my mother’s life and journey as a way of making it clear that, yes, I would be the first woman president, but I like everybody stood on the shoulders and lived the lives and experiences of those who came before us,’ she said during the interview’s teaser.
According to her, the victory speech reflected what it means for America to have its first female president.
“I’ve met women who were born before women had the right to vote. They’ve been waiting a hundred years for tonight,” she said.
“I’ve met little boys and girls who didn’t understand why a woman has never been president before. Now they know, and the world knows, that in America, every boy and every girl can grow up to be whatever they dream — even president of the United States.”
Clinton became emotional while talking about her mother, Dorothy Rodham, who died in 2011. Clinton said her mother had a difficult childhood “and as hard as it might be to imagine, your daughter will grow up and become the president of the United States.”
If she had become president, she said she would have delivered “an America where women are respected and immigrants are welcomed. Where veterans are honored, parents are supported, and workers are paid fairly. An America where we believe in science, where we look beyond people’s disabilities and see their possibilities, where marriage is a right and discrimination is wrong. No matter who you are, what you look like, where you come from, or who you love.”
Clinton’s campaign in 2016 was battered by scandals from poor handling of classified information to her husband’s foundation receiving donations from foreign leaders who then asked or got invitations, meetings, and face time. She was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
