In a re-election run in 2020, the novelty of being elected the first woman President will be gone, Hillary will be running on her politics and record then.

This is as close to a declaration of a Zombie Apocalypse we have gotten from this Supreme Court to date. It is The Night of the Living Religious Corporation...they're alive! And they have more rights than the actual people who work for them! Get the canned food and the shotgun, they're coming to your neighborhood next!
