Former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton continues to show signs of disappointment after losing to Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election eight years ago. The former senator and secretary of state has lamented her loss for years now, mentioning her failed political campaign on many occasions. Unsurprisingly, she channeled her political nostalgia again in a New York Times op-ed, referencing her campaign and political experience while endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee.

As the Washington Examiner previously reported, Clinton credited herself while discussing Harris’s candidacy, with the odd, self-congratulatory claim that she was a political pioneer who paved the way for Harris. It is the kind of narcissistic, self-absorbed comment people have come to expect from Clinton. How self-centered must one be to credit oneself for another woman running for president?
