Hillary Clinton receives loudest cheers of the night — seemingly bigger than Kamala Harris — at DNC as she smirks at ‘lock him up’ chants

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.

I flipped over to it for a couple minutes. President Joe Diapers was hollering and hooting. He had a full diaper and was yelling at a cloud. Biden is insufferable when he starts his self-righteous shouting and gesticulating. Demented old man tells lies about "back in the day". Oh yeah, and "Get off my lawn!"

Well, hopefully she’ll never see the inside of heaven either.

Well, I hope she DOES see the inside of Heaven because that's what God made her for. It would mean she would have final repentance.

Now, I am Catholic, so barring a painful martyrdom or something I do believe that she would have to undergo a lot of purgatory to prepare for Heaven until the last farthing is paid, and that might take a while. But I'd rather she not be damned forever.

Secretary of State again, or Secretary of the Treasury.
Then Chelsea and Bill can fire up the Clinton Foundation to help Haiti and other countries around the world.

Biden is insufferable when he starts his self-righteous shouting and gesticulating.

He doesn't have to shout to be insufferable. His mere existence is insufferable.

Isn’t it kind of out-of-order to have the supposed big-hitter nominators up first, early on day one? Hillary and Biden (not in Prime time)?

It’s looking like to me the most distinguished (if one can call it that) nominator will be the third night prime time, Big Mike, perhaps the Kenyan himself.
