She knew because they had been turning their ire at her all her career, ever since she suggested universal single payer healthcare until Bill Clinton, which never got implemented.
But the far right lost their shit and invented lies about her ad infinitum ever since.
Because she wanted people to not die from treatable ailments nor go bankrupt, and all it would have cost was people like Elon musk a few fewer billions than he has, which are already too many billions to ever need.
She knew because they went after her before they went after the rest of us.
But she was never wrong about them. She was right to call them out, but not enough of us had her back on that.
Funny, Bob Woodward, who helped uncover Watergate, tells about her backstabbing and undermining her own husband. She called him, "The Mechanic in Chief," to mock his supposed leadership weakness. And she did it to the media/press.
She underestimated how many deplorable there are. We cannot wish them away. And if, for some reason, the deplorable made up 51% of society then the rest of us are mere trespassers in a world defined by the deplorable.
