Hillary Clinton was up against Donald Trump in a tight 2016 election. Monday’s speech and loud cheers at the DNC were a moment of revenge against Trump, who had denounced her throughout the campaign.
Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who lost to former President and current Republican candidate Trump in 2016, has praised the party’s presidential candidate Kamala Harris at the Democratic Party convention. She has expressed hope that current Vice President Kamala Harris will break the highest and toughest barrier for women and become the country’s first woman president. Hillary Clinton said that she too had broken that barrier when she was nominated as a presidential candidate in 2016.
Hillary Clinton was up against Donald Trump in a tight 2016 election. Monday’s speech at the DNC and the loud cheers were a moment of revenge against Trump, who had denounced her throughout the campaign. The standing ovation Hillary received after her speech said it all. According to the New York Post, the applause lasted for 1.5 minutes and was even louder than the applause Kamala Harris received. Hillary Clinton focused her speech on women’s struggle for political space and compared lawyer Kamala to the “criminal” Trump. She thanked President Joe Biden for his lifetime of service and passing the baton to Harris. She called it a “new chapter”.
Hillary spoke about Shirley Chisholm’s 1972 White House bid and Geraldine Ferraro’s 1984 nomination to become America’s first female vice president. She then spoke about her 2016 nomination and how 66 million Americans voted for a future where there would be no limits on our dreams. Despite her defeat, she highlighted how women have run for many top offices since 2016. However, in a Fox News interview, Trump denied that he called for Hillary’s arrest, prosecution and imprisonment.
