Howard said that he knew that there would be an attempted assassination. Such knowledge is a good example of of 20/20 hindsight.

Get the 20/20 hindsightmug. When looking back at an event and thinking that no matter how wrong it went, it was still a fair experience

Get the Hindsight is 20/20mug. A nonsensical way to express the idea that it's easy to see what the right course of action was, when the dust has settled.
20/20 vision is 50th percentile, average. It's mediocre. It means you can see at 20 feet what the average, middle-of-the-line person can see at 20 feet. Hindsight (perfect deduction) is the opposite of that. It's flawless. Properly expressed, to make any sense and actually convey the intended meaning, it would be "Hindsight is 20/0".
Stop saying this nonsense bullshit.

Get the Hindsight is 20/20mug. That absolutely perfect, witty, devastatingly clever, or just plain savage thing you should have said during an argument, confrontation, or awkward conversation, but only thought of hours (or days) later when you're replaying the scene in your head for the tenth time (usually in the shower or trying to sleep).
Dude 1: "Man, I was arguing with my boss today, and he totally shut me down."
Dude 2: "Yeah?"
Dude 1: "Yeah, but like, 2 hours later on the drive home, I thought of the perfect response that would have made him look like a total idiot. Classic hindsight comeback."
