Hillary Clinton, the 2016 Democratic presidential candidate, said in an interview Monday that she has ruled out a bid for the 2020 presidential election.

The former first lady and secretary of state told News 12 Westchester that she will not be running for president next year.

"I'm not running, but I'm going to keep on working and speaking and standing up for what I believe," Clinton told the station, in the first local television interview since the midterm elections. Clinton also said she is "not going anywhere."

"What's at stake in our country, the kind of things that are happening right now are deeply troubling to me. And I'm also thinking hard about how do we start talking and listening to each other again?" she said. "We've just gotten so polarized. We've gotten into really opposing camps unlike anything I've ever seen in my adult life."

If you're not running, then you have no dog in the fight. Go home, sit down, and shut the fuck up.

I'll bet she daydreams every day that she'll be drafted by acclamation during the Convention.

What a difference a day makes.

Hillary Clinton made headlines Monday when she told a local New York news channel that she would not run for president in 2020.

"I'm not running, but I'm going to keep on working and speaking and standing up for what I believe," the former presidential nominee told News 12 Westchester. She insisted that she would remain relevant and has no plans of "going anywhere."

But late Tuesday, Maggie Haberman, a political reporter for the New York Times, tweeted that she spoke with a person close to the former secretary of state. The unnamed source said Clinton was not trying to "be emphatic and close the door on running" with the comment and was apparently "surprised" at the reaction.

"The person also says [Clinton] is extremely unlikely to run, but that she remains bothered that she's expected to close the door on it when, say, John Kerry isn't. She has told her team she is waiting at least to see the Mueller report," Haberman tweeted.

There is little buzz about a potential Kerry announcement, but there is clear interest in a potential Joe Biden bid. Recent polls have him leading the field of Democrats who have already announced. With Michael Bloomberg out of the way, there seems to be a clear path for a more centrist Democrat.

Those interested in Biden's decision include New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo and former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, who are reportedly in "wait-and-see" mode on their own potential candidacies until Biden ends his "Hamlet act," according to Politico.

Clinton told News 12 Westchester on Monday that there is a lot at stake for the country.

"We've just gotten so polarized,” she said. “We've gotten into really opposing camps unlike anything I've ever seen in my adult life."

President Trump said earlier that Clinton would “be sorely missed” in 2020. Clinton appeared to respond to Trump's comment with a gif from "Mean Girls," asking, "Why are you so obsessed with me?"

And the Kerry line. She still believes she wasn't elected because of misogyny.
