Don’t ever forget..the majority of people who voted in 2016 voted for her. How different the last 8 years would have been if it wasn’t for the damn electoral college. We have to vote in such numbers this time that the U.S. Democratic electoral college can’t subvert the will of the majority of voters. Vote for the prosecutor and the coach! Don’t let the republicans use the electoral college to steal another election!

Hillary Clinton could not have been more correct when she warned us all about trump and his cult. She deserved every second of the standing ovation and her speech was powerful and truthful.

I rejected Hillary in 2008 and have never been a believer in her. But she got my vote in 2016 because she was right about Trump. I’ll never cast a ballot for the felon. Ever.

She could have just walked up to the mic and said "I told you so" and it would have been one of the best speeches of the convention.

She was always treated worse than she deserved

This got me extremely emotional. I voted for her and I was stunned when I realized we had the popular vote, but lost due to electoral college. In hindsight, I imagine how many of the friends we lost during Trump's presidency would still be with us, had the reins been firmly in her capable hands instead. But, as this campaign says: we move forward. Forward, but never alone.

She had millions on Trump. But still lost. We need to do more than "make it, " America. We need to FLOOD. And we will.

How it feels when you realize 8 years later, that everything she said about Trump, she was right

[maijajaja]

Haven’t heard a speech that powerful in a while.

[ProjectEleven-zi]

Can you just imagine if this was Hilary’s exit speech after 8 years as president? Where would America be if Hilary was elected in 2016 instead of Trump? America would be kicking ass right now instead of having an identity crisis

This is one of the best speeches I've heard Hillary Clinton give; so naturally, Republicans and Russian trolls will dump all over it.

I took my young daughter to the polls to watch me vote for Hillary in 2016...I told her to remember the moment I voted for the 1st woman president. I just couldn't believe she lost. The electoral college is a joke. No person should win the majority of the votes and lose!!! Now both my daughter and I will vote for Kamala and I will take my young son to watch me vote. We are NOT going back!!!

[lunalu]

Wow, I missed you so so much, Hillary Clinton! You are intelligent, strong, beautiful, defiant, eloquent, and fighting for human rights till the end...
It was so inspiring to listen to you and watch your energy and passion shine:)))

[ohotnitza]

Holy crap, that applause was deafening... and I'm watching on my phone😂

[clevername]

The crowd cheering "LOCK HIM UP" to Hillary was poetic justice.

[_sillyeyes_]

Seeing Hillary stand before a massive crowd of people chanting "LOCK HIM UP!" was just pure gold.

[tenthousandwaves]

Hard to believe it’s been 40 years since Geraldine Ferraro was nominated for VP!

[dougs]

What sweet vindication for Hillary to have the crowd chanting LOCK HIM UP
How the tables have turned Donnie

Judge Luttig said something beautiful when asked why he is voting for Kamala: "When we're young...we learn right from wrong...we don't learn right from left."

[touchdownsinonegame]

Hillary Clinton gave one of the best speeches ever

[paulzeigler]

Hillary not winning in 2016 was one of the saddest days in American History. Trump has divided and destroyed this country.
