Hillary obviously wants to try running again in 2024, particularly as Biden crashes and burns and Kamala somehow manages to look even worse than Biden. The Trump-Hillary rematch that would spawn would be legendary, but one thing isn’t on Hillary’s side (well, besides the American public): the fact that everyone thinks of her as the woman Bill cheated on or that was responsible for Benghazi or that lost to the bad orange man.
Other than that, she doesn’t really have an identity other than being blamed in Twitter comments for every suspicious death.
So, she obviously wanted to fix that with the release of the show “Rodham.”
That ridiculous show, based on an equally absurd (but somehow best selling) novel of the same name, is premised on there being some fantasy world where Hillary and Bill dated but never got married, Hillary became a college professor, and then she somehow still ran for the presidency in 2016. In the novel, Bill Clinton is still accused of rape.
Variety, reporting on the major points of the plot, notes that:
As a series, “Rodham” would span decades, with Fanning and Danes playing Clinton at different ages. Should the project land elsewhere and go forward, it would not be the first time Hillary Clinton has been portrayed onscreen in recent years. Last fall, Edie Falco played Clinton during her First Lady years in the FX series “Impeachment: American Crime Story.” Clive Owen played Bill Clinton, with Beanie Feldstein playing the role of Monica Lewinsky.
