Shes Back: Hillary Clintons Last 100 Days (oh my, what a contrast to the orange madman)
Shes Back: Hillary Clintons Last 100 Days
by Jane C. Timm
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton planned an aggressive push on a dozen policies for her first 100 days in the White House, including raising the minimum wage, investing in infrastructure, and reforming the nation's immigration system. But following her stunning Electoral College defeat on November 8, the Democratic nominee faced her first truly retired days in decades and the prospect of a wildly different presidency than the one she had promised.

Day 1: Attending the inauguration
Clinton attended the inauguration alongside husband and former President Bill Clinton, as well as a luncheon where President Trump picked them both out of a crowd. She wore white, the symbolic color of women's suffrage.

Day 47, 48, and 57: Speaking to more women's groups
On March 7, Clinton addressed a Girls Inc. luncheon and the next day, spoke at a leadership awards event for Vital Voices. Days later, she addressed a St. Patrick's Day event for the Society of Irish Women, telling the crowd that she was "ready to come out of the woods," a nod to her low profile in recent months and famous hiking photos.

Day 62: Gets her own whiskey vintage
As Trump's Supreme Court pick was undergoing a grilling in the Senate, a new women-owned Washington, D.C., distillery, Republic Restoratives, announced that it would release a limited batch of "Rodham Rye" a blend of whiskies "that are stronger together than apart." Clinton's namesake whiskey was originally intended to toast the first woman president, and the distillery's owners decided to go ahead with it in honor of her historic bid.

Day 87: Boosting the DNC
Clinton's campaign handed over her email list to the Democratic National Committee as an in-kind donation to the party, adding 10 million new names to their roster as they prepare for the upcoming midterm elections. Meanwhile, Trump declared that he wanted an investigation into the protesters who exercised their First Amendment rights on Tax Day.
