Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton compared herself to “Wonder Woman” in a surprise video honoring actress and supporter Elizabeth Banks at the Crystal + Lucy Awards Tuesday night.
“Now I haven’t seen Wonder Woman yet, but I’m going to, in part because it’s directed by the fabulous Patty Jenkins,” said Clinton in the video.

“But something tells me that a movie about a strong, powerful woman fighting to save the world from a massive international disaster is right up my alley,” Hillary stated.
