[Asia Economy Reporter Kwon Jae-hee] Hillary Clinton, former Secretary of State who ran against President Donald Trump in the last presidential election, appeared on The New York Times (NYT) podcast 'Sway' on the 25th (local time) and stated, "Republican lawmakers want President Trump to be kicked out of the White House in this election."

According to the political media Axios, former Secretary Clinton said on the podcast that "most Republican lawmakers want Trump's chapter to be closed," adding, "They want him gone as much as we do, but they cannot say it publicly." She went on to criticize, "Republican lawmakers have been cowardly and spineless enablers throughout this administration."

When asked if a female president would have handled the COVID-19 pandemic better, former Secretary Clinton replied, "Without a doubt, if it were me, it would have been handled much better," and added, "It would be as if I were born for that."

According to Johns Hopkins University, the United States has recorded the highest COVID-19 impact in the world, with over 8.6 million infected and approximately 225,000 deaths as of that day.

Clinton said, "I cannot entertain the thought that Trump will win the election with just over a week left," and added, "If Trump wins, it will cause a serious level of cognitive dissonance."

She continued, "The thought of having four more years of this abuse and destruction of our institutions makes me nauseous."

In the last presidential election, Clinton won about 2.8 million more votes nationwide, but the victory went to President Trump, who swept the six key battleground states and secured the electoral votes.

Meanwhile, with nine days left until the election, nationwide and many state polls show Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden leading, but in battleground states, numerous polls fall within the margin of error, making the outcome difficult to predict.
