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.

Watched a video where a couple(married) talked about who they supported. The wife said Trump and gave reasons. Economy, security, border…, the husband said it didn’t matter who was the nominee he would vote democrat

Pretty much sums it up

Perhaps Trump should request some of the relatives of those that were massacred in Benghazi to speak at one of his rallies. Shut the Clinton bitch up. Also some of those rescued from Afghanistan for the Kumalamity bitch. Show the country how the dems will abandon anyone to continue the rape of America. Just like they abandoned their own, Biden.

I would say typical Whitt leftist, and I say that because of a video at dnc where the white boys were “all in for camel toe” then they talked to 3 black women and they ripped heels up a new one

One soy boy claimed he was for her because she would be good on crime, economy and the border

Seriously what a biosphere they live in

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.

She'd have real problems in Heaven.

How could she murder any of the other residents!

After being elected Trump said he wasn’t going to pursue criminal charges against Hillary because it would be divisive.

What a mistake.

Seems I recall reading that Trump saved Hilary from prosecution during his term in office. I don’t recall details.
