Other than being a Democrat would his usual sophomoric attacks work? Or even stick to her?
And we could do that for any potential candidate.
That's actually why I say she would be a good candidate. If I play the political hack game, my thought process is that you have a well educated woman that has had a life devoted to service, including being wounded in the military being shot down in a war zone. She doesn't have the baggage that some of the other potential options do, including her not being as polarizing in her positions. At the same time, though, she is very principled in her convictions.
That's a hard target for Trump's style of campaigning. No doubt he would try, but he would risk losing a lot of support from more moderate leaning folks.
