Failed Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton admitted to thousands of New Zealanders Monday that she considered permanently leaving the United States and moving to the southwestern Pacific Ocean country after her election loss in 2016.

The former secretary of state told roughly 3,000 people in Auckland that she received multiple offers to take a job in New Zealand and thought about living there for the rest of her life.

"I must say I really did appreciate the offers. Gave them some thought," Clinton, 70, admitted. "But I'm going to stay put because we have work to do in my country as well."

She said she is still unhappy about losing the election to President Trump and brought up some of her previously stated grievances with him.

Jenny Shipley, a former prime minister of New Zealand and the first woman to hold that position, interviewed Clinton.

"You're now on your third woman prime minister. Just saying," Clinton told Shipley, according to a local report.

Clinton retold stories from her latest book, What Happened, which explains from her point of view why she lost her second presidential election after first losing the 2008 Democratic primary to Barack Obama.

Clinton has repeatedly criticized Trump since he took office 15 months ago and continued sharing concerns about the state of the country.

Clinton did not use Trump's name in all of the instance. She also described the "strangest goings on we are living through" in America.

She again said she should have responded when Trump "stalked me" on stage during a presidential debate in fall 2016.

Clinton will continue to Australia as she continues her international book tour.
