In 2016, Hillary Clinton lost the race for the presidency to Donald Trump. Eight years later, she is back on stage – and more combative than ever.
She hardly gets a chance to speak. For two minutes the crowds cheer her on, more than they have in eight years, more than perhaps even then, more than perhaps ever before – and she can’t stop them.
Again and again, Hillary Clinton begins her speech at the party convention and is overwhelmed by the cheering in the United Arena in West Chicago, not far from her childhood home.
What satisfaction for a woman who lost the fateful election in 2016 to Trump and was long considered a loser, a guilty party, even among Democrats.
