"Attendees will have the opportunity to hear one-of-a-kind conversations with the two leaders as they tell their stories from some of the most impactful moments in modern history. From the American presidency to the halls of the Senate and State Department, to one of the United States’ most controversial and unpredictable presidential elections, they provide a unique perspective on the past, and remarkable insight into where we go from here," Live Nation said in a statement.
The tour will begin in Las Vegas on Nov. 18 and move onto several cities in Canada as well as stops in Texas, New York, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Washington, California, and others. The tour wraps up in May of 2019, around the time 2020 presidential campaigns will kick off.
Since losing the presidency in November 2016, Clinton has continued to speak out against her opponent, President Donald Trump. At the Atlantic Festival in Washington, D.C., last week, she criticized Trump and his voters as racist, sexist, anti-LGBT, and Islamaphobic.
Trump has been "racist, sexist, Islamophobic, anti-LGBT," she said, and he talks to "that America. He talks to them all the time. It's a very hard core who are responding to him and supporting him."
In a new afterword for her book, What Happened, and on Twitter, Clinton said that, "Donald Trump refuses to be subject to the law. The legitimacy of our elections is in doubt. The president is waging war on the truth. The administration is undermining the national unity that makes democracy possible. And then there's the breathtaking corruption."
