Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton might have hit wrong a cord on Twitter with her address to participants at an annual summit supporting the women’s movement. In a pre-recorded video message, posted online by the MAKERS conference, the 2016 presidential candidate celebrated the “tidal wave of women and young people running for office”.
She pointed to Democrat Nancy Pelosi as an example of such a breakthrough for women in politics.
"As Speaker Nancy Pelosi — doesn’t that sound great — has proved yet again it often takes a woman to get the job done", she said, noting that “this is such an important time”.

Others trolled Clinton’s financial interests in giving speeches.
