Hillary Clinton admits she feels an ‘urge’ to run against Trump again
Nearly four years after President Trump defeated her in the 2016 election, Hillary Clinton said she has an “urge” to run again because she thinks she can win this time.
The former secretary of state was asked during an interview with Variety if she ever thought “I could beat Donald Trump if I were running.”
“Yeah. I certainly feel the urge because I feel the 2016 election was a really odd time and an odd outcome,” she told the magazine in an interview published online Monday.
“And the more we learn, the more that seems to be the case. But I’m going to support the people who are running now and do everything I can to help elect the Democratic nominee.”
The interview took place in Park City, Utah, where the former senator from New York is promoting a documentary, “Hillary,” that debuted at the Sundance Film Festival.
In a separate interview, Clinton said a lot has changed since 2016 when Trump won the presidency despite being a political novice.
“I think there’s a story now to be told. Before he was a blank slate. He was a guy that people saw on their TVs. As you know, he was a reality TV star,” Clinton said, according to the Associated Press. “Now I think there’s a record that he’s going to have to be held accountable for.”Clinton topped Trump in the popular vote by nearly 3 million, but he won the Electoral College vote 304-227.
She said “the person who gets the most votes should win” and supports abolishing the Electoral College.
“The Electoral College is an anachronism that foils the rights of the majority of Americans to choose our leaders.”
In the Variety interview, Clinton also responded to the criticism she received when a clip from the documentary showed her saying she wouldn’t endorse Sen. Bernie Sanders if he wins the Democratic nomination this year.
“I think we did that interview about a year and a half ago. I wasn’t thinking about the election by any means. I’ve said I’m going to support the nominee,” she said of Sanders, who ran against her during the 2016 Democratic primary.
“But I do think it’s important to look at somebody’s record and look at what they’ve gotten done and see whether you agree with that or not. I think that’s what every voter paying attention should do,” Clinton added.
“Hillary” will debut on Hulu March 6.
