Eric Holder to run for POTUS in 2020?

Remember the sloth Eric Holder? Obama’s first corrupt AG? He’s been working with Moonbeam Jerry Brown to fight Trump’s battle against diseased illegal aliens. Now, he’s tossing out a trial balloon that he may run for POTUS in 2020, because the Democrats are so lacking in decent candidates. Since it appears Republicans have no interest in investigating the corrupt of Holder and Loretta Lynch, maybe Holder will choose Lynch as his running mate.

Former Attorney General Eric Holder is moving away from a behind-the-scenes role and is considering running for president in 2020, according to a Tuesday report from Yahoo News.

“Up to now, I have been more behind-the-scenes. But that’s about to change. I have a certain status as the former attorney general. A certain familiarity as the first African-American attorney general,” Holder told Yahoo News. “There’s a justified perception that I’m close to President Obama. So I want to use whatever skills I have, whatever notoriety I have, to be effective in opposing things that are, at the end of the day, just bad for the country.”

The former attorney general has been working against Trump administration initiatives ranging from crackdowns on illegal immigration to increased prosecutions of drug dealers.

Holder further explained that Hillary Clinton’s loss inspired him to step into the spotlight.

“I thought, frankly, along with everybody else, that after the election, with Hillary Clinton as president, I could walk off the field,” the former attorney general elaborated. “So when she didn’t win, I thought, ‘We’ll have to see how this plays out.’ But it became clear relatively soon — and certainly sooner than I expected — that I had to get back on the field and be in effective opposition.”
