2020: Hillary Clinton Presidency

[DylanSH99]

2016: Secretary Clinton elected, defeats Mr. Trump

The 2016 election has come to an end, with Secretary Hillary Clinton defeating businessman Donald Trump. After a highly contested campaign, Clinton is the first woman to be elected President of the United States.

The election was marked by a number of issues, particularly immigration, trade, and the economy. Trump's campaign was built on his promise to "Make America Great Again", while Clinton's was rooted in her experience as a public servant and her message of "Stronger Together".

Throughout the election, Trump attempted to paint Clinton as corrupt and out of touch with the needs of everyday Americans. His campaign was full of inflammatory rhetoric, and he often attacked minorities, immigrants, and women.

In contrast, Clinton was able to leverage her experience as a former secretary of state and first lady to draw attention to her plans for the future. She proposed policies that would benefit working families, raise wages, and combat climate change.

On election night, Clinton won the electoral college with 278 votes, while Trump captured only 260. In the popular vote, Clinton also won the majority, with nearly 3 million more votes than Trump.

The election of Clinton is seen by many as a major step forward for women in politics. Clinton has paved the way for other women to run for higher office and to have their voices heard.

The election of Clinton also signals a shift in the nation's political climate. This has led some to speculate that the country could be headed for a period of progressive governance.

The election of Clinton marks a huge milestone for the United States, and it is sure to have far-reaching implications for years to come. As the country moves forward, it is important to remember the lessons learned during this election and to continue to strive for a more inclusive and equitable society.

BREAKING: GOP WINS HOUSE IN LANDSLIDE

The 2018 midterm House elections with Hillary Clinton as President resulted in a significant victory for the Republican Party. The Republicans won 239 seats to the Democrats’ 196, a 43-seat majority. This was the Republicans’ largest majority since 1928 and the first midterm election since President Clinton’s election in 2016.

A closer look at the election results reveals that the Republican Party won a majority of seats in all but a handful of states. In the South and Midwest, the Republicans were successful in taking advantage of the Clinton administration’s unpopularity in those regions to win a majority of the seats in those regions. The Republicans also won a majority of the seats in the Midwest, where President Clinton has been particularly unpopular.

The Republican victory was largely driven by the support of Trump voters. According to exit polls, Trump voters made up 57 percent of the general electorate in the 2018 midterms, and 73 percent of those voters voted for Republican candidates. This was a significant shift from the 2016 presidential election, when Trump voters made up only 40 percent of the electorate. The Republican victory was also driven by a strong performance in the suburbs.

BREAKING: GOP EXPANDS SENATE MAJORITY

The 2018 midterm Senate elections were historic for many reasons, most notably the Republican Party's unprecedented victory. With Hillary Clinton in the White House and the GOP in control of the Senate, the GOP was able to gain an impressive 59-41 majority over the Democrats. This was largely due to a number of key Republican victories from some of the most closely watched races in the country.

In Arizona, Martha McSally emerged as the victor in a closely contested battle with Democratic opponent Kyrsten Sinema. McSally, who had previously served in the Air Force, was able to capitalize on her military experience and her reputation as a staunch conservative.

In California, Kevin de Leon was able to defeat incumbent Dianne Feinstein in an upset victory. De Leon, a state senator, was able to capitalize on his progressive credentials and his opposition to Feinstein's more centrist stances.

In Michigan, John James was able to defeat the incumbent Debbie Stabenow, who had held the seat for eighteen years. James, a political newcomer and veteran of the US Army, was able to capitalize on his outsider status and his support from the Republican Party.

In Montana, Matt Rosendale was able to defeat incumbent Jon Tester in a highly contested race. Rosendale, who had previously served in the state legislature, was able to capitalize on his support from the GOP and his opposition to Tester's liberal stances.

In Nevada, Dean Heller was able to hold onto his seat against Democratic opponent Jacky Rosen. Heller, who had previously held the seat for six years, was able to capitalize on his reputation as a moderate Republican and his support from the GOP.

In Ohio, Jim Renacci was able to defeat incumbent Sherrod Brown in a close race. Renacci, a businessman and former congressman, was able to capitalize on his business experience and his support from the GOP.

Finally, in West Virginia, Patrick Morrisey was able to defeat incumbent Joe Manchin in a close race. Morrisey, who had previously served as the state's attorney general, was able to capitalize on his conservative credentials and his support from the Republican Party.

Overall, the 2018 midterm Senate elections were a major win for the Republican Party and a clear indication of the shifting political landscape in the United States. The GOP was able to capitalize on a number of key races in order to secure an impressive 59-41 majority over the Democrats, setting the stage for a new era of Republican dominance in the Senate.

BREAKING: TRUMP ANNOUNCES RUN FOR PRESIDENT

Donald Trump, the business mogul and former 2016 presidential candidate, made a surprising announcement on February 22nd, 2019 that he will be running for the presidency again in 2020.

"We are going to make America great again," Trump said during his speech at his campaign rally in Florida. "I will fight for the hardworking citizens of this country and bring back the values that have made us the great nation we are today."

Trump ran for the presidency in 2016, but ultimately lost to Hillary Clinton. Since then, he has been a vocal critic of the current administration and has promised to make sweeping changes to the government if elected.

Trump also promised to create jobs, lower taxes, and end illegal immigration. He has stated that he will be a champion of the middle class and will fight for those who are struggling in the current economy.

Trump also made a point of highlighting the importance of national security, saying that he will ensure that America remains safe and secure. He also promised to ensure that America's allies are respected and that the nation's enemies are punished.

The announcement has been met with both praise and criticism from the Republican Party. Supporters of Trump have praised him for his promise to bring back the values that have made America great, while those in the GOP who oppose him have groaned at the thought of him becoming the nominee again with a loss already under his belt.

[DylanSH99]

BREAKING: CHAFEE CHALLENGING CLINTON

On February 28th, 2019, former Rhode Island Senator and 2016 presidential candidate Lincoln Chafee announced that he was planning to primary challenge President Hillary Clinton in 2020. Chafee made his announcement at the Rhode Island Democratic Convention, where he argued that the Democratic Party had become too “extreme” and that he was the “centrist” candidate they needed.

In his speech, Chafee said, “We have strayed from our Democratic roots. The Democratic Party should be in the business of solving problems, not exacerbating them. That’s why I’m running for president as a centrist, to bring the party back to its roots, and to serve the people of America.”

Chafee's primary challenge comes after his failed 2016 presidential campaign, during which he was defeated in the Democratic primary by Clinton. During his 2016 campaign, Chafee focused on economic issues, calling for an increase in the minimum wage, a reversal of free trade agreements, and a reduction in the national debt.

Chafee has also been a vocal opponent of President Clinton's foreign policy. He has been critical of Clinton's handling of the Iran nuclear deal. He has also spoken out against the President's trade policies, and her decision to support the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

[DylanSH99]

BREAKING: WALSH ENTERS 2020 FIELD

On March 2nd, 2019, former Congressman Joe Walsh announced his intention to run for President of the United States in 2020. In a speech given in Des Moines Iowa, Walsh declared that he was running to "take on Hillary Clinton and all she stands for."

Walsh is no stranger to politics, having served as a Republican representative in the House of Representatives from 2011 to 2013. During his term, he was a vocal critic of President Obama, and a strong supporter of the Tea Party. Now, Walsh has decided to take on President Clinton.

In his speech, Walsh said, "I'm running for president to make sure that every American is treated with dignity and respect. We need a president who will take responsibility for his actions, who will tell the truth, and who'll fight for what's right. We don't have that right now. That's why I'm running."

Walsh's campaign is expected to focus on a message of fiscal responsibility and limited government. He has already criticized President Clinton for her "reckless" spending. Walsh has also been a vocal critic of the opioid crisis, which he believes the Clinton administration has not done enough to address.


BREAKING: PENCE ANNOUNCES CANDIDACY

On March 13th, 2019, former Governor Mike Pence shocked the nation by announcing his candidacy for the 2020 presidential election. In a speech delivered from his home state of Indiana, Pence declared his intention to “stand up for the values and principles that have made America the greatest nation in the world.”

“Today, I am announcing my candidacy for president of the United States of America,” Pence said to a cheering and applauding crowd. “It is time to restore the spirit of America, and I intend to do just that.”

The announcement comes after Pence’s failed bid for vice president in 2016, when he ran alongside Donald Trump and lost the election to then-former Secretary Hillary Clinton.

In his announcement, Pence touted his experience in government, citing his past role as governor of Indiana. He also highlighted his conservative values, emphasizing his commitment to limited government, fiscal responsibility, and traditional values.

[DylanSH99]

BREAKING: CRUZ ANNOUNCES SECOND RUN

On March 23, 2019, Senator Ted Cruz announced his 2020 presidential campaign during a speech in front of a cheering crowd in his hometown of Houston, Texas. The Republican senator, who is seeking his party’s nomination for the White House, has promised to “fight for every American” and declared his candidacy with a passionate and optimistic message. This comes after his 2016 campaign where he lost in the GOP primaries to Donald Trump.

In his speech, Senator Cruz promised to “reignite the promise of America” and to “defend liberty and justice for every American.” He also called for a “new generation of leadership” and a “renewed commitment to the Constitution.” His speech also focused on his commitment to religious liberty, economic opportunity, and “securing our borders.” Senator Cruz also spoke about his record of fighting for conservative causes, including his advocacy for a flat tax, repealing Obamacare, and cutting government spending.

Senator Cruz has served in the Senate since 2013 and is a favorite of many conservatives. He has been an outspoken critic of the Obama and Clinton administrations, and has clashed with both Democrats and Republicans in Washington. He has long been a favorite of the Tea Party faction of the Republican Party.


BREAKING: KASICH RUNNING FOR POTUS

On March 30th, 2019, former Ohio Governor John Kasich announced his candidacy for the 2020 presidential election. This announcement came four years after his unsuccessful campaign in the 2016 election.

In his announcement speech, Kasich said, “I am running for president of the United States to bring together the best of all factions of the Republican Party and the best of the American spirit to meet the challenges of today and tomorrow.” He then went on to say, “We are a nation of big dreams, but right now those dreams are frozen by the bitterness and partisanship of our politics. We can change that, we must change that, and I will change that as president.”

Kasich's announcement comes as a surprise to many, as he has been a vocal critic of President Clinton's administration and was considered a long-shot for the Republican nomination in 2016. However, Kasich has indicated that he will be running in the 2020 election, and that he is confident he can bring together both sides of the political aisle to create a better future for the American people.

[DylanSH99]

BREAKING: WELD MAKES BID FOR PRESIDENT

On April 15th, 2019, former Massachusetts Governor Bill Weld announced that he was officially launching a 2020 presidential campaign.

"This is not an easy decision," Weld said during his speech. "But I believe that, at this time, it is a necessary one. We can no longer sit back and allow this president to move our country in a dangerous and damaging direction. We must stand up and act, now."

Weld, who served two terms as governor of Massachusetts during the 1990s, is now running on a platform of fiscal responsibility, reducing government waste, and protecting civil liberties. He has also called for more effective immigration policies and gun control measures.

In addition to his policy proposals, Weld has also placed an emphasis on civil discourse and respect. "I refuse to engage in the same kind of mudslinging and name-calling that has become commonplace in our politics," he said. "We can disagree without being disagreeable."

[DylanSH99]

BREAKING: RUBIO ENTERS GOP RACE

On April 23rd, 2019, Senator Marco Rubio of Florida announced his candidacy for the 2020 presidential election. This comes after his failed 2016 bid when he lost in the GOP primary to Donald Trump. Speaking at a rally in Miami, Rubio declared that he was running for the highest office in the United States.

“Today, grounded by the lessons of our history, but inspired by the promise of our future, I announce my candidacy for President of the United States of America,” Rubio declared.

The announcement was met with enthusiasm from the crowd, many of whom had been following Rubio’s political career for years.

Rubio, one of the youngest presidential contenders in recent history, has been a vocal advocate for fiscal conservatism and a strong US presence abroad. He has also been a vocal critic of the current administration, and has indicated he would roll back many of the policies of President Hillary Clinton.

“The time has come for our generation to lead the way toward a better future,” Rubio said. “We can’t afford to go back to the same failed policies and political games of the past. We must go forward to a new and better future.”


BREAKING: HOGAN LAUNCHES POTUS RUN

On April 25, 2019, Maryland Governor Larry Hogan made headlines when he announced his bid for the 2020 GOP presidential nomination. During a speech at the Maryland Republican Party’s Red, White, and Blue Dinner in Annapolis, Hogan declared his intent to challenge President Hillary Clinton in the upcoming election.

Hogan began his speech with a critical tone, calling the current state of American politics “toxic” and “divisive”. He said that he was running for president to bring unity and bi-partisan cooperation to the political landscape. “We cannot continue down the same path,” Hogan said. “We must offer a different way.”

Hogan also discussed his qualifications for the office of president, noting his experience as the governor of Maryland—one of the most diverse states in the nation. He highlighted his successful record of reducing taxes, balancing budgets, and creating jobs in Maryland. Furthermore, Hogan promised to bring the same “common sense” and “responsible leadership” to Washington that he had brought to Maryland.

[DylanSH99]

BREAKING: PAUL RUNNING IN 2020

On May 7th, 2019, Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) announced his candidacy for the 2020 presidential election. In a speech during his campaign launch in Louisville, Paul said, “Today I announce with God’s help, with the help of liberty lovers everywhere, that I am putting myself forward as a candidate for president of the United States of America.”

Paul, a staunch libertarian, is running on a platform of fiscal responsibility, criminal justice reform, and an end to foreign military intervention. His announcement marks the beginning of a heated race for the Republican nomination. Paul is one of the only candidates to emphasize the importance of individual liberty and reducing government spending. Paul's 2020 campaign comes after a failed bid for the GOP nomination four years ago in 2016.

In his speech, Paul outlined his plans to tackle the national debt, tackle the opioid crisis, and reform the criminal justice system. He said, “I will work to reduce the size and scope of government, and to make our country freer and wealthier. I will work to make sure that your taxes are lower, that the national debt is reduced, and that the government stops intruding into your life."


BREAKING: HALEY ANNOUNCES RUN

On the morning of May 24th, 2019, former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley announced her intention to run for President of the United States in 2020. The announcement came during a press conference at the state capitol in Columbia, South Carolina.

In her speech, Governor Haley stated, “I am here today to announce my intention to run for President of the United States in 2020. I have been fortunate enough to serve our country in various capacities, and I believe that my experience and leadership has prepared me to take on this important role.”

Haley, a Republican, served as governor of South Carolina from 2011 until 2019. Prior to her political career, Haley was a successful businesswoman. The announcement of Haley’s candidacy was met with both enthusiasm and skepticism. Supporters praised her for her experience and for being a woman in the historically male-dominated role of president. Skeptics questioned her past political decisions, including her support for the controversial Keystone XL pipeline. Haley’s candidacy adds another name to the crowded field of potential presidential contenders.

What about Governors in this timeline??? I imagine the GOP definitely holds Michigan, Wisconsin, and Illinois. I imagine they possibly even take Oregon as Kate Brown was an unusually weak candidate and in a strong GOP environment wouldn't stand a chance.  I imagine more legislatures flip too.

One other factor I can see in this timeline is that hardcore Bernie Sanders supporters would still hate her. Both they and the GOP would attack her over #metoo because of her husband if it still happens.

I also know Covid will show up in TTL.

Kris Kobach is elected in Kansas, Shawn Moody in Maine, Bill Schuette in Michigan, Adam Laxalt in Nevada, Knute Buehler in Oregon and Scott Walker in Wisconsin.

BREAKING: TRUMP WINS IOWA CAUCUS



The 2020 Iowa Caucus on the Republican side has come and gone, and the results have been nothing short of astonishing. Businessman Donald Trump has emerged as the clear winner, with Senator Ted Cruz, Governor Mike Pence, and Governor Bill Weld rounding out the top four candidates.

The first-place finish for Donald Trump was expected, given his strong polling numbers leading up to the caucus. Trump’s victory speech was a characteristically bombastic affair, with him boasting of his “unbelievable victory” and proclaiming it a “great honor.” Here is an excerpt from that speech:

“Tonight, we have made history. We have achieved an incredible victory, and I want to thank all of the people of Iowa for their incredible support. We will make America great again, and I promise to deliver on all of my promises.”

In addition to Donald Trump’s victory, Senator Ted Cruz also performed well, finishing in second place. Cruz delivered a fiery speech in which he thanked his supporters and vowed to fight the “Washington cartel.”

BREAKING: WELD, HALEY DROP OUT

The 2020 Iowa Caucus has come and gone, leaving some political hopefuls in its wake. Two of the most notable candidates who have dropped out since the caucus are former Congressman Joe Walsh and former Governor Nikki Haley.

Joe Walsh, a one-term congressman from Illinois, began his presidential campaign with the hopes of being the Republican nominee for the 2020 election. He has long been a vocal critic of President Clinton. Unfortunately, Walsh's campaign was unable to gain much traction in the polls, and he failed to gain any delegates in the Iowa Caucus. After his loss, Walsh officially dropped out of the race.

Nikki Haley, former Governor of South Carolina, announced her candidacy for President in early 2019. She was seen as a potential game-changer for the Republican Party due to her status as a popular former governor with a history of conservative fiscal policies. Furthermore, she was seen as a potential bridge between the Trump and more traditional segments of the Republican Party. However, her campaign struggled to gain much attention, and she only gained 2 delegates in Iowa. After Iowa, Haley announced that she was dropping out of the race.

BREAKING: COVID PANDEMIC HITS UNITED STATES


The COVID-19 pandemic has reached the United States and is spreading rapidly. President Hillary Clinton has issued an urgent plea to all citizens to stay home and practice social distancing.

In a statement from the White House, President Clinton said, “The virus is spreading quickly and we must all take responsibility to protect ourselves and our communities. I urge everyone to stay home, practice social distancing, wash their hands often and wear a face mask in public.”

The president also announced a series of measures to help combat the virus. These measures include providing free COVID-19 testing, expanding access to healthcare, increasing funding for research and development, and providing financial assistance to those affected by the virus.

In addition, President Clinton has urged companies and businesses to adopt flexible policies to allow employees to work from home and to provide paid leave for those affected by the virus.

The president's call to action comes at a time when the virus has spread to all 50 states and the District of Columbia, with more than 50,000 cases reported in the US. The death toll is also rising, with more than 800 deaths reported.

BREAKING: TRUMP WINS NH PRIMARY

The 2020 New Hampshire Primary on the Republican side was a resounding success for business mogul Donald Trump. With a commanding lead over his opponents, Trump won the primary in a landslide victory. Following Trump in the primary were former Governor Bill Weld, former Governor John Kasich, and Senator Marco Rubio.

Donald Trump has been a consistent frontrunner in the Republican primary race since its start. His success in New Hampshire further solidified his frontrunner status and is sure to give his campaign a boost of momentum as the race continues.

Trump celebrated his victory with a victory speech that highlighted his main campaign promises; “We are going to make our country greater than ever before. We are going to start winning again, and we are going to win so much, you are going to be so happy. We are going to bring back our jobs, we are going to rebuild our military, and we are never, ever going to forget the great veterans of our country.”

These promises have resonated with Trump’s base and have been a key factor in his success. His supporters have been drawn to his rhetoric of “Making America Great Again” and his ability to connect with the everyday American.

2020 New Hampshire Primary Results (23)
Donald Trump: 37.8% (11)
Bill Weld: 21.7% (6)
John Kasich: 11.8% (3)
Marco Rubio: 11.7% (3)

BREAKING: CLINTON WINS NH PRIMARY

The 2020 New Hampshire Primary saw a decisive victory for incumbent President Hillary Clinton in the Democratic race. With 93% of the vote, Clinton easily defeated former Senator Lincoln Chafee, who only managed to garner 7% of the votes.

The decisive victory for Clinton is evidence of her strong support among New Hampshire voters. Despite facing a challenge from the former Senator, Clinton managed to maintain her commanding lead over the race. This win is likely to boost her confidence and help her in her bid for re-election in the upcoming general election.

The victory for Clinton is also a validation of many of her policies and positions. Throughout her campaign, Clinton has been vocal in her support for many progressive policies, such as increased gun control, stronger environmental regulations, and greater support for the LGBTQ community. The landslide victory in New Hampshire is a testament to the fact that many of these positions are well received by the citizens of the state.

The 2020 New Hampshire Primary also serves as a reminder of the importance of a strong ground game. Clinton’s campaign has been known for its effective use of grassroots organizing, with volunteers making thousands of phone calls, distributing flyers, and holding events to get out the vote.

BREAKING: HOGAN DROPS OUT

The 2020 New Hampshire Primary is now over, and several candidates have dropped out of the race for the White House since the Iowa Caucus. The newest candidate to withdraw was Maryland Governor Larry Hogan.

Governor Hogan had been considered a long-shot candidate in the race, but his exit is still being felt by his supporters. Hogan had been seen as a more moderate Republican candidate in a field that was otherwise dominated by more conservative voices. He also had the backing of some prominent Republicans who were hoping that he could help to bridge the divisions within the GOP.

Hogan had made a weak showing in the New Hampshire Primary, finishing with 3% of the vote in a crowded field. With his weak showing, he ultimately bowed out of the contest.

In a statement announcing his withdrawal from the race, Hogan expressed his appreciation for the support he had received from his supporters and said that he was proud of his campaign and the issues he had raised during his run. He also stated that he believed the Republican Party could and should be a “big tent” that welcomed different views and opinions. Hogan then endorsed Governor Kasich.

BREAKING: TRUMP WINS NEVADA CAUCUS

The 2020 Nevada Caucus on the Republican side saw a decisive victory for businessman Donald Trump, with 46% of the vote. Trump’s victory marks the third straight state that he has won in the Republican primary race, further cementing his status as the front-runner for the Republican nomination.

In a speech following his Nevada victory, Trump thanked his supporters for their hard work and dedication, saying, “I want to thank the people of Nevada. You have been so incredible to me. You have given me the honor of a lifetime. I am truly humbled by your support. Together, we will make America great again.”

Trump’s victory in Nevada was largely attributed to his popularity among the state’s large Latino population, who made up a large portion of the Republican caucus-goers. Trump won the majority of the Hispanic vote in Nevada, a feat that he had been unable to accomplish in previous primary states.

2020 Nevada Caucus (30)
Donald Trump: 45.9% (14)
John Kasich: 23.1% (7)

BREAKING: TRUMP WINS SC PRIMARY

The results of the 2020 South Carolina Primary on the Republican side are in, and businessman Donald Trump has won with 50% of the vote. This is the second consecutive win for Mr. Trump in the South Carolina primary, with his victory in 2016 being much narrower.

In his victory speech, Mr. Trump had this to say:

"I want to thank the people of South Carolina for their overwhelming support. We have a movement that is powerful and unstoppable. We are going to make sure that we win the election in November and make America great again."

BREAKING: PAUL DROPS OUT

The 2020 South Carolina Primary and Nevada Caucus saw one candidate drop out of the race: Senator Rand Paul. Paul, the junior senator from Kentucky, had entered the race as a long-shot but had managed to gain traction with his unorthodox libertarian platform.

Paul was seen as a unique voice in the crowded field of candidates, providing an interesting contrast to the more traditional contenders. He was a vocal critic of the war in Iraq, stressing the importance of fiscal responsibility and fiscal discipline. He also championed civil liberties, making sure to emphasize the importance of the Constitution and government transparency.

With his tanking numbers in the polls, Paul’s campaign failed to gain the traction it needed to gain the Republican nomination. Paul was the only candidate to drop out after the South Carolina Primary and Nevada Caucus, citing a lack of resources as the reason for his decision.

BREAKING: KASICH, RUBIO, CRUZ, WELD DROP OUT

The 2020 Republican primary is winding down after Nevada and South Carolina voted, resulting in former Governor John Kasich, Senator Ted Cruz, Senator Marco Rubio, and former Governor Bill Weld dropping out of the race.

John Kasich, the former Governor of Ohio, was the first to drop out after a poor showing in the Nevada caucus. Kasich had campaigned on a moderate platform, emphasizing bipartisanship, and had hoped to gain traction with moderates and independents. However, he was unable to gain traction, and his campaign quickly fizzled out.

Senator Ted Cruz was the next to drop out after a disappointing showing in the South Carolina primary. Cruz had been hoping to gain support from conservative voters, but was unable to make a significant dent in the vote. He had been campaigning on a promise to repeal Obamacare, and had hoped that his hardline stance on immigration issues would help him gain support among the Republican base. However, it was not enough to overcome his opponents.

Senator Marco Rubio was the third to drop out of the race, after finishing a distant second in the South Carolina primary. Rubio had been campaigning on a platform of economic growth and tax reform, but was unable to gain enough traction to remain competitive. He had hoped to gain support from moderate and independent voters, but was unable to make a dent in the polls.

Finally, former Governor Bill Weld dropped out of the race after a disappointing showing in the Nevada caucus. Weld had been hoping to gain support from moderate and independent voters, but his campaign was unable to gain any traction. He had been focusing on fiscal responsibility and economic growth, but his message was overshadowed by his more conservative opponents.

BREAKING: CLINTON GIVES COVID-19 UPDATE

In a nationwide address on March 30th, 2020, President Hillary Clinton provided the nation with a much-needed update on the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

President Clinton began her speech by acknowledging the difficult times the nation has been facing and expressing her gratitude for the strength and resilience of the American people. She noted that the virus has exposed the harsh and deep-seated inequalities in the US health care system, and that despite the tremendous efforts of the healthcare workers across the country, the situation has become increasingly dire.

President Clinton then addressed the current state of the pandemic, noting that the US has seen a significant increase in the number of confirmed cases, with over 400,000 cases nationwide. She also noted that the death toll has risen to over 12,000, with many of those deaths being among the elderly, people of color, and those living in poverty. President Clinton then acknowledged the urgent need for more resources to be deployed in order to combat the virus, including more testing kits and more personal protective equipment for health care workers.
