Hillary Diane Clinton /ˈhɪləɹi daɪˈæn ˈklɪntən/, née Rodham /ˈɹɑdəm/ le 26 octobre 1947 à Chicago , est une femme politique américaine, notamment secrétaire d'État des États-Unis de 2009 à 2013.

Après avoir milité au sein du Parti républicain dans les années 1960, elle adhère au Parti démocrate.

Elle est première dame des États-Unis de 1993 à 2001, en tant qu'épouse du 42e président des États-Unis, Bill Clinton. Elle occupe ensuite un siège de sénatrice pour l'État de New York au Congrès des États-Unis, de 2001 à 2009 ; elle vote notamment en faveur des interventions militaires américaines en Afghanistan et en Irak. Candidate et favorite aux primaires présidentielles démocrates de 2008, elle est battue par Barack Obama en nombre de délégués. L'année suivante, après l'élection de celui-ci à la Maison-Blanche, elle est nommée secrétaire d'État, fonction qu'elle occupe jusqu'en 2013.

À nouveau candidate à la présidence à l'élection de 2016, elle remporte les primaires démocrates face au sénateur du Vermont Bernie Sanders, devenant ainsi la première femme candidate de l'un des deux grands partis américains pour le poste de président des États-Unis. Longtemps donnée gagnante dans les sondages et bien que majoritaire en nombre de voix, elle échoue au collège électoral, par 227 grands électeurs, contre 304 pour le candidat du Parti républicain, Donald Trump.

“Vous savez, grosso modo, vous pourriez mettre la moitié des partisans de Trump dans ce que j'appelle le panier des lamentables. Pas vrai? Les racistes, sexistes, homophobes, xénophobes, islamophobes. À vous de choisir.”

You know, to just be grossly generalistic, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right? The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic—you name it.

Contexte: College is crucial, but a four-year degree should not be the only path to a good job. We're going to help more people learn a skill or practice a trade and make a good living doing it. We're going to give small businesses a boost. Make it easier to get credit. Way too many dreams die in the parking lots of banks. In America, if you can dream it, you should be able to build it. We're going to help you balance family and work. And you know what, if fighting for affordable child care and paid family leave is playing the “woman card,” then Deal Me In!

“For 40 years, everyone running for president has released their tax returns. You can go and see nearly, I think, 39, 40 years of our tax returns, but everyone has done it. We know the IRS has made clear there is no prohibition on releasing it when you're under audit. So you've got to ask yourself, why won't he release his tax returns? And I think there may be a couple of reasons. First, maybe he's not as rich as he says he is. Second, maybe he's not as charitable as he claims to be. Third, we don't know all of his business dealings, but we have been told through investigative reporting that he owes about $650 million to Wall Street and foreign banks. Or maybe he doesn't want the American people, all of you watching tonight, to know that he's paid nothing in federal taxes, because the only years that anybody's ever seen were a couple of years when he had to turn them over to state authorities when he was trying to get a casino license, and they showed he didn't pay any federal income tax. So if he's paid zero, that means zero for troops, zero for vets, zero for schools or health. And I think probably he's not all that enthusiastic about having the rest of our country see what the real reasons are, because it must be something really important, even terrible, that he's trying to hide. And the financial disclosure statements, they don't give you the tax rate. They don't give you all the details that tax returns would. And it just seems to me that this is something that the American people deserve to see. And I have no reason to believe that he's ever going to release his tax returns, because there's something he's hiding.”

“I want the Iranians to know that if I'm the president, we will attack Iran (if it attacks Israel). In the next 10 years, during which they might foolishly consider launching an attack on Israel, we would be able to totally obliterate them. That’s a terrible thing to say but those people who run Iran need to understand that because that perhaps will deter them from doing something that would be reckless, foolish and tragic.”

Interview on ABC's Good Morning America, as quoted in "Clinton says U.S. could "totally obliterate" Iran" https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-politics-iran/clinton-says-u-s-could-totally-obliterate-iran-idUSN2224332720080422 by David Morgan, Reuters (22 April 2008)
