On Thursday, hundreds gathered in New Yorks Grand Central Terminal to honor the late Dominican designer Oscar de la Renta, whom the U.S. Postal Service commemorated on a series of stamps. Hillary Clinton, Anna Wintour, Michael Bloomberg, and Anderson Cooper all took the stage to share heartfelt remembrances of de la Renta while simultaneously broadcasting messages of inclusion.
Clinton, wearing a magenta jacket paired with a gold statement necklace and black trousers, shared her love of the designers clothes as well as personal stories of vacationing with her family in Punta Cana with de la Renta and his wife, Annette.
I remember as though it were yesterday, standing in my first receiving line in the White House for the Kennedy Center Honors, Clinton recalled. I had bought this dress off the rack and Oscar and Annette were among the guests. And so Oscar goes through the receiving line and as I shake his hand and Im welcoming him to the White House, he said, Thats my dress. I said, Yes, it is. He said, Well, Im calling you tomorrow. And he did.
The former secretary of state also made sure to make a slight dig at President Trump.
Oscar de la Renta was an immigrant
and arent we proud and grateful that he was, she said, noting that the corner of the stamps read USA Forever. She added, What a fitting person to be chosen by our Postal Service mentioned, by the way, in the Constitution, something we should all read and reread in todays times.

“Oscar de la Renta was an immigrant”
And I am sure he came into the country LEGALLY! The issue is those that come here ILLEGALLY!
She has got to protect her voters somehow!
Who the hell is this Hillary Clinton person?
The vast majority of my ancestors immigrated to North America over the past 400 years - all of them legally. I have no problem with immigrants. I have a huge problem with criminals: illegal immigrants, democrats, and especially the Clintons.
Why do the liberals constantly and incorrectly, conflate the issues of legal immigration with issues of illegal aliens??? They are two separate and distinct matters.
What does the fact that Oscar de LA Renta was a legal immigrant have to do with how we grapple with illegal aliens today??????
Hillary bought a dress off the rack??? Really???
Does Hillary ever wear a dress anymore????
"....she's a loooser
....and that's the way it's suppose to be"
Russia and Putin....
or
Radical Islam, illegals, Globalist and Soros<l?
I only buy Purple Heart stamps. What will they do if no one buys these Oscar stamps? Why is the USPS even spending money to make stamps of him?
A fashion designer? I'm supposed to be "proud and grateful" that a fashion designer moved to America? Clintoon is crazier than I thought she was.
Nobody in my family ancestry was an immigrant. They were all colonists and pioneers just like many other American CItizens.
I’ve heard rumblings that she wants to be Mayor of New York City and personally don’t believe she’s given up 100% on being President.
It’s a purposeful equivalence to confuse and obfuscate to the left every immigrant is likely to be a walking (D) vote anyway
Hillary really just loves to hike in the woods with Bill, but she is coming out, for the children, in planning for her run for President in 2020.
Why is Hillary promoting a fashion designer? The media went batshit crazy when Kellyannne Conway mentioned Ivanka. The hypocrisy is amazing.
HRC missed the irony of talking about vacationing in a place that many of her admirers (illegals) couldn't afford and from where they were escaping by coming to the US.
WHOOPDEEf*UCKIN’DO!
Errr, ah, I goofed on my censoring of a cuss word, and it got through anyway somehow.
I think I’m too excited after that press conference :O
Please save me from myself and delete my post #19 in this thread.
Very sorry, stepping away from the keyboard now!
