Bill Clinton praises Kamala Harris in DNC speech

Former President Bill Clinton told the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday, “In 2024, we have a clear choice: ‘We The People’ versus ‘Me, Myself, and I.’ “

“I know which one I like better for our country,” Clinton said.

“Kamala Harris will solve problems, seize opportunities, ease our fears, and make sure that every ********* can chase their dreams,” said the former president, who served two terms in the White House until January 2001.

“Kamala Harris is the only candidate in this race with the vision, the experience, the temperament, the will, and yes — the sheer joy — to do that on good and bad days. To be our voice,” he said.

Clinton’s wife, Hillary Clinton, lost the 2016 election to former President Donald Trump, the current *********** presidential nominee.

Clinton made a pointed joke at Trump’s expense at the start of his speech.

Now, let’s cut to the chase: The stakes are too high and I’m too old to gild the lily,” Clinton said. “I actually turned 78 two days ago. And I’m still not quite as old as Donald Trump.”
