Former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton laughed and said “no” when asked on Tuesday if she would consider running for the White House again.
“No,” Clinton said in between laughs. “But I will certainly be active in supporting women running for office and other candidates who I think should be re-elected or elected, both men and women.”
The former foreign minister also ripped apart Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying he was “acting out of his own fears” for the people of Ukraine.

The former foreign minister also ripped apart Russian President Vladimir Putin, saying he was “acting out of his own fears” for the people of Ukraine.
“It is absolutely heartbreaking to me that Putin is acting out of his fears and his resentment and his grievances against the people of Ukraine,” Clinton told Morning Joe reporter Mika Brzezinski.
She continued, “Waging a war against a smaller country is so completely unjustified that as we’ve seen, it really tells us all we need to know about Putin.”
I asked Brzezinski Clinton how she thought Putin’s invasion of Ukraine would end.
“I don’t know how it will end, but I think the person who is probably the most surprised that this will continue is Vladimir Putin,” she said.
The level of defense and determination shown by the Ukrainian people, from their president, President Zelensky, all the way to the grandmothers and young women who took up arms for the first time to defend their families and communities. – It’s tragic but inspiring,” Clinton continued.
‘I hope.’ The world will stay with Ukraine as they try to protect their homeland, and everything they hold dear, including freedom and democracy,” added the former foreign minister.
She also notes that even though the war is taking place “away”.
“It’s a war that will affect the kind of world we live in,” Clinton noted. And that is why I hope everyone understands why we must support the Ukrainian people moving forward.
As Tuesday marks International Women’s Day, I asked Brzezinski Clinton what motivates women in Ukraine to be so resilient.
Clinton replied, “I think above all, it’s a shock.”
“You know, a couple of weeks ago, these people, especially these women, were taking care of their kids, and they were planning weddings, and they were on their way to work, and they were continuing their education,” she said. “Because the leader of a much larger country on their frontier decided he wanted to eradicate their way of life, they now flee for safety or stand up to that military force.”
I suggested that since the Ukrainians were fighting “not for an ideology, not for a dictator”, but for their way of life, they were able to hold off Putin’s forces.
Not to mention: Hillary Clinton laughed at the idea that she would ever run for the White House again. Former President Donald Trump, who edged out Clinton but was defeated by President Joe Biden, has suggested he might jump into the 2024 race.
“And you can at least for now, you know, stop this evil force from just eliminating you and ending the way you have thought about what life will be like for you and for posterity,” she said.
Clinton described her as a resilience “born out of danger and pain.”
The Clintons are back into politics as the November midterm elections approach, but as they said Tuesday morning, they are not expected to run for the White House for a third time.
However, the conservatives could not seem to believe that Clinton’s political ambitions had been realized.
At the Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando late last month, attendees who took part in the event’s annual poll said Clinton was the most likely Democratic nominee in 2024, even though Democratic President Joe Biden was in office.
Of those polled, 22.1 percent said Clinton would be the Democratic nominee for 2024, while 16.8 percent said it would be former first lady Michelle Obama — who has never expressed interest in pursuing elected office.
In third place was Biden, with 13.6 percent of the vote.
Hillary Clinton has been voted most likely to be the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee by attendees of the Conservative Political Action Conference in late February in Orlando, Florida. Democratic President Joe Biden came in third
