Samantha Power threw a 2016 election-night party for the other 37 female United Nations ambassadors expecting to see Hillary Clinton elected the first female U.S. president, only for the bash to end in despair, she revealed in a new interview.
“I’ve had a lot of bad ideas in my life, but none as immortalized as this one,” Power told Politico‘s Susan Glasser in a joint interview with former top Barack Obama aide Ben Rhodes.
HBO captured the party’s evolution from glee to sadness as part of its new documentary from Greg Barker, “The Final Year.” Rhodes and Power are two of the stars of the film’s behind-the-scenes access to Obama’s last year in office.
Power, who served as the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations from 2013 to 2017, said she made the invitation to her fellow ambassadors fully expecting the “glass ceiling” to be shattered by Clinton. She was picked by most political experts to easily defeat Donald Trump.
