Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton told graduating students at Yale University on Sunday she was still grappling with the results of the 2016 election.

"No, I’m not over it, I still think about the 2016 election, I still regret the mistakes I made,” Clinton said during an address as part of Yale University’s Class Day. “Today, as a person, I’m Okay. As an American, I’m concerned."

“This is a moment to reach across divides of race, class, and politics to try to see the world through the eyes of people very different from ourselves and to return to rational debate," she continued, speaking of "radical empathy" in the face of heightened partisanship and otherness.

But Clinton also took the opportunity to entertain the crowd with a couple of lighthearted jokes, taking aim at President Trump, Michigan voters, and Facebook for its data privacy breaches.

“I see looking out at you that you are following the tradition of over-the-top hats. So I brought a hat, too: A Russian hat,” she said, referencing Kremlin interference in the 2016 presidential campaigns.

“If you can’t beat them, join them,” Clinton added.

The former secretary of state graduated from Yale Law School in 1973.
