Hillary Clinton gave her first interview on Wednesday to a major media outlet since the inauguration of President Donald Trump this past Friday.

The former secretary of state and first lady, who lost the electoral college vote despite winning the popular vote by a record margin of nearly three million, praised the 'awe-inspiring' women and men who took to the streets of Washington, DC, and other cities around the world on Saturday to protest the newly installed Trump administration.

Clinton said that she had attended Trump's inauguration in Washington the day before 'to honor democracy and its enduring values,' according to People.

She said that the massive demonstrations should be just the beginning.

'On Saturday, we watched women and men across this country and the globe stand up, speak out, and peacefully march for those values with one voice,' Clinton said.

'It was awe-inspiring. We have to keep up the momentum.'

'I will never stop believing in this country and our collective future,' Clinton told People.

'We are still, and will always be, stronger together.'

The interview comes as Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, were seen in New York on Wednesday evening. The former first couple attended a benefit jazz concert in New York's Lincoln Center.

The Nearness of You benefit aims to raise money for cancer research. It was launched in memory of Grammy Award-winning saxophonist Michael Brecker, who died of complications from leukemia 10 years ago.

Among the big names who performed at the show were Diana Krall, Chaka Khan, and Wynton Marsalis.

Though Clinton did not attend any of the marches in person, she did voice support from afar, posting a series of Twitter messages laced with a theme of women's empowerment.

'Thanks for standing, speaking & marching for our values @womensmarch,' Clinton tweeted on Saturday.

'Important as ever. I truly believe we're always Stronger Together.'

'Stronger together' is one of the campaign slogans used by Clinton in her run for the presidency.

In another Twitter post, Clinton attached a drawing created by Louisa Cannell.

Under the banner 'Hope not fear,' the drawing shows three women with their eyes closed while clutching a bouquet of flowers.

Another Twitter post expressed support for Nora Harren, a 17-year-old girl from Boise, Idaho, who co-founded a human rights activist group.

On Sunday, Clinton tweeted a link to a news story from the online magazine Slate about the march.

'Scrolling through images of the #womensmarch is awe-inspiring,' the Democratic nominee said. 'Hope it brought joy to others as it did to me.'

Later on Sunday, she posted a tweet that was initially written by former Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter.

Nutter's tweet read: 'Marching, good. organizing, better. Speaking up, good. Running for office, better. Registering, good. Voting BEST!! #MakeAmericaSaneAgain!'

Clinton praised Nutter, tweeting: 'Michael Nutter got a lot of great points into 140 characters here. We have to keep the momentum.'

Clinton is considering another run for president - and is mulling the idea of launching a television talk show to soften the ground for 2020.

Clinton would be 73 years old if she were to challenge President Donald Trump - again - and win the White House the next time around.

Clinton (seen above with her husband, former President Bill Clinton, at Trump's inauguration on Friday) is considering another run for president - and is mulling the idea of launching a television talk show to soften the ground for 2020

Launching a TV program now would make her America's second-oldest female news or talk show host on the small screen, after only Joy Behar of 'The View.'

Author Ed Klein wrote Wednesday on his blog that according to a Clinton insider, the former secretary of state is open to the idea.

'She thinks being the host of a popular TV show would energize the Democratic Party base and her tens of millions of fans,' the unnamed source said, according to Klein.

'It's a way to make a comeback and position herself for another run at the White House starting in a year or so.'

Clinton, Klein writes, recently told a group of friends gathered at her Washington, D.C. home: 'I'll be back' – and delivered the line in an Arnold Schwarzenegger 'Terminator' accent as she raised a glass of wine.

A planned comeback as a presidential candidate for the third time would preclude the idea of running for mayor of New York City.

It would also take more lucrative opportunities off the table, including corporate boards and university chancellorships.

But the Clintons are among the nation's richest Democratic politicians, reaping hundreds of millions of dollars in speaking fees since Bill Clinton left the White House in 2001.
