'I know a thing or two': Hillary Clinton gives Kamala Harris endorsement — and free advice

In a New York Times op-ed Tuesday endorsing Kamala Harris, former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton shared her experience being on the receiving end of MAGA hate.

“I know a thing or two about how hard it can be for strong women candidates to fight through the sexism and double standards of American politics,” Clinton wrote. “I’ve been called a witch, a 'nasty woman' and much worse. I was even burned in effigy.”

Clinton, who took Donald Trump's insult and turned it into a campaign slogan, said Harris’ campaign will need to rise above the attacks to win in November.

“Ms. 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,” Clinton writes. “She and the campaign will have to cut through the noise, and all of us as voters must be thoughtful about what we read, believe and share.”

To succeed where Clinton fell short in 2016, Harris will have to connect with swing voters and a younger generation by arguing for abortion rights and lean into the accomplishments of the Biden administration, such as keeping jobs high amid inflation and taking on student debt.

“Ms. Harris is chronically underestimated, as are so many women in politics, but she is well prepared for this moment,” Clinton writes. “I look forward to hearing her prosecute a compelling case against Mr. Trump, who failed as a president the first time and is running on a dangerous agenda.”
