Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton received a standing ovation at the Democratic National Convention on Monday as she dug into her 2016 playbook — highlighting gender as a focus of the presidential election.
After the roughly 1.5-minute long ovation — with cheers that appeared louder than they were for Vice President Kamala Harris herself earlier in the night — Clinton, 76, first thanked President Biden, leading to chants of “Thank you, Joe.”
“Thank you Joe Biden for your lifetime of service and leadership. Now we are a new chapter,” Clinton said.
The 2016 Democratic presidential nominee went on to discuss the importance of women running for president, highlighting Shirley Chisholm’s 1972 White House bid and Geraldine Ferraro’s 1984 nomination to be the first female vice president.
“If we can do this, we can do anything,” Clinton said, before reminiscing about her own presidential campaign.
“And then there was 2016, when it was the honor of my life to accept our party’s nomination,” Clinton recalled. “Nearly 66 million Americans voted for a future where there are no ceilings on our dreams.”
“And after the race, we refused to give up on America,” she said, referencing the women’s march in Washington, DC., which has become an annual event, and the many women who have run for political office since Trump’s 2016 victory.

Mirror, mirror, on the wall
Who’s the shrewdest of them all?
That woman needs to be tried for treason and hanged. Nothing else will suffice.
Evil Godless people cheering for evil Godless leaders...
democrats ... The party of hate.
And to think this woman will never see the inside of a prison cell. Well, hopefully she’ll never see the inside of heaven either.
I agree.
Will we ever be rid of this tiresome shrew?
Hopefully there will be sufficient repentance before her final hour.
Iron our shirts!
Iron our shirts!
Hillary, Vince Foster died for your sins!!!
“Well, hopefully she’ll never see the inside of heaven either.”
I have no doubt about that one.
Nevertheless, she deserves just enough prison time (even <24 hours) to be subjected to a full body cavity search, a delousing treatment, and a dominatrix cellmate.
In order to repent acknowledgement of your sins is where you start.
Hillary will never admit to her crimes, NEVER !!!
The trouble with liberals is that most of them do their voting with the head between their legs.
I tuned in for about ten seconds of her. (That’s all I could take). She sure has had a LOT of plastic surgery this year.
Hilary is the legacy act, playing at Vegas, like Celine Dion.
Kamala is ‘Bad Girl’ of the week, like Cardi-B.
I can’t believe the Jamaican showed up in a camel-colored pant suit. What an idiot. Probably thought she was hosting Saturday night live.
“as she smirks at ‘lock him up’””
.
Odd.
I don’t recall all US prisons having been torn down, there should be plenty of room for her.
Like they say, “day ain’t over yet commie.”
