Like to see Trump pivot left now that he's currently super vulnerable from the right.

Should Clinton lose, it's going to be a great comfort to Democrats that the DNC ran the candidate who their opponents have had decades of practice attacking and are apparently so good at it that they've tanked her favorability.

A lot of people think Hillary is going to powerbomb Trump in the debates and in the media; in reality she'll probably drop some weak pander-burns and commit about a billion unforced errors, but she'll still win because Trump has driven away too many demographics.

she can probably take the "Biden in a debate against Sarah goddamn Palin" route of just repeatedly reminding the viewers that her opponent did not answer the question.

Hillary's known for barfing out five minutes of word salad in lieu of answering questions herself, so attacking someone else for not answering one might not be the best idea for her

I honestly believe that Hillary Clinton would be a more dangerous president than Donald Trump. I will be actively canvassing and doing everything my power (hilariously limited, limp, and ineffectual it may be) to help stop her.

The groundwork was laid starting in 2008. The damage to the Clintons, the destruction of McCain and Romney, the purging of the "blue dogs" from the Democratic Party and the corresponding rise of Conservative populism, the creation of Obamacare as a focal point of government gone wrong, the polarization of rural whites against Hispanics. In the fall of 2016, mere weeks before the election, Hillary Clinton was indicted. The charges, the trial, and the sentencing were swift and brutal. Anonymous sources leaked to the press that dozens of congressional Democrats were aware of Clinton's crimes and tried their best to cover them up. A century later this was be proven false, but the mere accusations proved to be damning in the 2016 elections. Trump was swept into power winning 532 electoral votes (only DC and VT voted for Clinton), a massive house majority was handed to the GOP, and the GOP had a gain of 6 senate seats (NV and CO were blowouts; the sitting senators in NY, OR, and WA were accused of being a part of the Clinton cover up and lost their seats, and the race in VT went into a month long recount upon Patrick Leahy's suspicious death a week before the election, leading to chaotic and mixed messaging from a burning Democratic Party telling some voters to vote for Leahy and other voters to write in a variety of alternative candidates; the final recount had Republican Scott Milne win the election by 11 votes). January 20th, 2017 is now known as The Day of Revelation. After a day of fluff family interviews with MSNBC, Huffington Post, and the New York Times, Barack Obama took to prime-time TV an hour before midnight to reveal that he had been a Donald Trump plant this entire time. The address lasted less than 90 seconds and was entirely devoid of emotion; it concluded by telling citizens that further instructions would follow from Trump at noon on January 21st. Barack, Michelle, Malia, and Natasha were never seen or heard from again. On January 21st, 2017, the age of Trump's Conquest began.

Basically every major president ever has made major pivots on foreign policy. Woodrow Wilson ran on the promise to keep America out of the First World War. Franklin Delano Roosevelt campaigned on the promise to keep America out of the Second World War. Johnson ran against Goldwater in 1964 by presenting him as a dangerous war mongering extremist but as soon as Johnson had won he began to escalate America's military involvement in Vietnam. Nixon pivoted on China, Reagan reversed his early stance about the USSR and ended up negotiating several arms treaties, George W. Bush specifically condemned "nation building" efforts during the 2000 campaign but then attempted his own nation building experiments in the Middle East. Of course there are domestic policy examples as well. Obama campaigned against Hilary Clinton's healthcare plan but ended up implementing a plan that was very similar, including specific provisions he'd opposed such as the mandate to buy insurance. He also he would renegotiate NAFTA and not only did he not do that but his administration has been pushing for the TPP, which is basically NAFTA on steroids, etc.

Well done, you've managed to spend two paragraphs without even reading the drat question. I said pivoting between the primary and the general, not the primary and the presidency. All of those stances you laid out, each of those men ran on those same positions when they were representing the party.
