Hillary Clinton surprises guests in rock-star fashion at National Portrait Gallery exhibition[tr]
Washington Post ^ | 3/29/2019 | Sarah Polus

Posted on 03/31/2019 3:51:35 PM PDT by simpson96

“Our next guest needs no introduction,” Rep. Doris Matsui (D-Calif.) told the crowd gathered in the atrium of the National Portrait Gallery on Thursday night. “A former first lady …” Excited murmurs start growing in the audience gathered to celebrate the museum’s newest exhibition, “Votes for Women: A Portrait of Persistence,” ahead of next year’s 100th anniversary of the 19th amendment.

A younger girl turns to her friend. “Oh, my God. … Do you?”

“A former secretary of state,” the Democratic congresswoman from California continues.

“Hillary?” another guest excitedly whispers, eyes widening.

Then Matsui hits the nail on the head: The next speaker was the first female presidential candidate nominated by a major party.

A woman screeches, “Hillary!!” and starts fist-pumping. Phones immediately fly up in the air, ready to document the surprise guest’s appearance on social media.

The woman of the hour emerges from behind a velvet curtain in rock-star fashion, waving to a sea of cheering fans who are adamantly professing their love for her. Clinton, dressed in white to represent the women’s suffrage movement like the crowd gathered before her, shares stories of the influential women from the past, artifacts from whom adorn the exhibit’s walls.

“The struggle in some ways continues,” Clinton says. “But it’s absolutely wonderful to stop and celebrate what this exhibit represents, and the decades and decades it took to grant women the right to vote.”

I realize that we cannot control how we age—but the years haven’t been that kind to her (or Bill for that matter).

Um. They announced a former First Lady... then also a Secretary of State... and one woman WONDERED if it could be Hillary???

It's not only that... the women on MSNBC don't speak from their own minds - they speak from 'talking points' written by white democrat men...

A few score of women swooning in an art gallery and Hillary is a Rock Star.

10,000 cheering for Trump in an arena until they’re hoarse and it’s not good enough to be described as Rock Star by the media.

Much like 2016, the election outcome of 2020 will probably be a big surprise to a lot of MSMers.

Nancy Pelosi ‏ Verified account @SpeakerPelosi Mar 28 The fight to win the right to vote was led by generations of activists who took the victories of their predecessors and pushed on towards true equality. Wonderful to see so many honored as @NPG opens its Votes for Women exhibit. #BecauseOfHerStory

Cankles hits the road, wanting to be the Dem Party Kingmaker. I doubt anyone with gonads has any chance to win the Dem nomination as presidential candidate.

Corey Snooker , Plugs, Buttergig, Lickenhooper, Beeto Magneeto or the Bern have no chance to survive negative comments and opposition research by Hitlery, Moosehell, Oopsey Wimpfree, and Pelosifer.

The Donks are gonna nominate a woman, just to beat that no good alpha male, over sexed Donald Trump.( Heavy Sarc.)

This is one of the best museums in DC .Too bad it is cheapened with the Bushes, Clintons, and Obama’s. I won’t visit it ever again.

Of course it was a surprise appearance. If they had announced it and it was a small turnout that would be bad optics. Remember the Bill and Hill tour and how that fizzled? I read that Hillary would not campaign again if she ran. She’d face small crowds and heckling. Bill’s health would be a good cover for her. And might get some sympathy votes. Especially if he kicks the can right before the election. Timing is everything right?
