Hillary Clinton's former campaign chief John Podesta insists she won't run for 2020 presidency
Hillary Clinton's former campaign chief John Podesta on Wednesday insisted that the former Secretary of State will not run for the 2020 presidential elections, according to reports. Podesta, while talking to CNN, said that he "takes her at her word" after Clinton told him that she was not planning to challenge Donald Trump this time.
"She's not running for president. We've got a lot of great candidates out there right now, and I think the Democratic primary is going to be a spirited one with a lot of great ideas coming forward," Podesta said. The former Clinton campaign chief, however, added that he wished she were the president, "but that's in the past," and added that there were some excellent candidates who are lining up for the Democratic National Convention (DNC).
