Clinton says Dem’s surprise win in Alabama a ‘turning point’ against Trump
VANCOUVER — Hillary Clinton says the Democratic party’s surprise win in Alabama during Tuesday’s senate race in the United States marks a “turning point” for Americans who are opposed to President Donald Trump.
Clinton told a crowd of more than 5,000 people gathered in Vancouver on Wednesday that the Democrats’ electoral upset in the heart of Republican territory has made her feel “a tiny bit less” concerned about the future of her country.
“For me, this was a very important turning point in basically holding President Trump and his most vitriolic, destructive advisers, led by Steve Bannon, accountable,” she said.
“People seem to be turning against the Trump philosophy and ideology,” she added. “So it’s a good sign but it’s by no means the end of the story.”
