First, I think you’re wrong. But my speculation regarding the future is no more valid than yours, so there’s that.
But second, they’ve been doing the Hillary-smear against her from the time she took office, and it has never let up. Much as it pains me to compare an intelligent, principled lawmaker against that empty vapid windbag, she’s nearly as much of a lightning rod to republicans as trump is to anyone sane. She’s unfortunately got no shot at the whitehouse unless our country and our politics change dramatically.
If I’m wrong, that’s great, but I suspect I’ll be dead of old age before things could change enough for her to have a shot. Maybe by the time she’s a senior citizen.
In the meantime though, I hope she keeps getting elected and keeps fighting the good fight. If that happens, I expect her ability to enact change will only increase, even if she never makes it to the oval office.
I hope I’m wrong about her, but she is a politician. Constituencies are built to gain office, and the closer she gets to power the more she will (and must) contort her program.
