Clinton claims she laid groundwork for Kamala Harris' presidential bid
SUMMARY
Hillary Clinton endorsed Kamala Harris in an op-ed for the New York Times, emphasizing her own experiences as a trailblazing female candidate. Clinton propped up her two failed presidential bids and compared herself to Harris, stating, "While it still pains me that I couldn't break that highest, hardest glass ceiling, I'm proud that my two presidential campaigns made it seem normal to have a woman at the top of the ticket." She alleged that Harris would face sexism and alluded the unique challenges Harris would encounter as the first Black and South Asian woman to lead a major party’s ticket. Clinton also noted, "Harris’s record and character will be distorted and disparaged by a flood of disinformation and the kind of ugly prejudice we’re already hearing from MAGA mouthpieces."
