Hillary Clinton will join Columbia University as a professor and presidential fellow in global affairs, the university announced Thursday.

Top Democrats are questioning Vice President Kamala Harris' leadership abilities, and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton even reportedly has her doubts.

"Members of Congress, Democratic strategists and other major party figures all said she [Harris] had not made herself into a formidable leader," a Monday article from The New York Times read.

The piece said two Democrats recalled Clinton privately dismissing Harris' chances of clearing a presidential primary field because she lacked the necessary "political instincts."

"Two Democrats recalled private conversations in which former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton lamented that Ms. Harris could not win because she does not have the political instincts to clear a primary field," the Times reported.

KARINE JEAN-PIERRE MISTAKENLY REFERS TO KAMALA HARRIS AS THE PRESIDENT DURING PRESS CONFERENCE

A spokesman for Clinton pointed to their "strong bond," although the Times didn't quote him issuing a specific denial of Clinton's reported private thoughts.

"They have built and maintained a strong bond. Any other characterization is patently false," Nick Merrill said on Clinton's behalf.

He also claimed the two held discussions focused on their separate experiences of being "a woman in power" and, according to the Times, reiterated that Clinton remains "strongly supportive" of her.

The Times article relayed Democrats' malaise around Harris' inability to "carve out" a political identity for herself beyond her legacy as many "firsts" the first African American, Asian American and woman to serve as vice president in U.S. history.

"Even some Democrats whom her own advisers referred reporters to for supportive quotes confided privately that they had lost hope in her," the article stated.

In 2016, Clinton became the first and to date only woman in U.S. history to win a major party presidential nomination. The 2020 Democratic field saw a record number of women seek the nomination, Harris among them, but they failed to win even a single primary or caucus.

Harris dropped out well before the Iowa caucuses in the 2020 cycle and ultimately endorsed Joe Biden before being selected as his running mate.

Harris has faced repeated criticism over her mishandling of America's southern border crisis, but the hits from her own arena go deeper.

A Jan. 30 article in The Washington Post concentrated on Democrats' frustrations with her tenure as vice president, with the report stating many are "worried" by the idea of seeing her lead the Democratic Party in the future while others are simply uptight about her being a continued drag on the White House.

SEN. WARREN STOPS SHORT OF SUPPORTING VP HARRIS FOR RE-ELECTION: I REALLY WANT TO DEFER'

"Harriss tenure has been underwhelming, they said, marked by struggles as a communicator and at times near-invisibility, leaving many rank-and-file Democrats unpersuaded that she has the force, charisma and skill to mount a winning presidential campaign," he wrote.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., also appeared uncomfortable with the prospect of seeing Harris return as vice president during a recent interview with Boston Public Radio in which she said she wanted to "defer" the decision to Biden.

AUSTIN, Texas Hillary Clinton likened Donald Trump's rally in Ohio last weekend to Adolf Hitler courting Nazis, a comparison that drew a sharp rebuke from a spokesman for the former president.

"I remember as a young student, you know, trying to figure out, how people get basically brought in by Hitler. How did that happen? I'd watch newsreels and I'd see this guy standing up there ranting and raving, and people shouting and raising their arms. I thought, 'What's happened to these people?'" Clinton said at the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin.

"You saw the rally in Ohio the other night, Trump is there ranting and raving for more than an hour, and you have these rows of young men with their arms raised. I thought, what is going on?"

Trump hosted a rally in Youngstown, Ohio, last Saturday in support of US Senate candidate JD Vance, who is facing Democratic Rep. Tim Ryan to succeed retiring Republican Sen. Rob Portman.

Some Trump supporters in attendance raised one index finger in the air at the end of the former president's speech.

"My fellow citizens, this incredible journey were on together has only just begun, and it is time to start talking about greatness for our country again. We are one movement, one people, one family, and one glorious American nation," Trump told the crowd.

Taylor Budowich, a spokesman for Trump, accused Clinton of "using some of the most disgusting smears imaginable."

"It seems like perpetual-failed-candidate Hillary Clintons basket of deplorables has run stale, not unlike herself," Budowich told Fox News Digital in a statement. "Its pathetic, its divisive, and it is further cementing her legacy of cringe."

Other politicians also compared Trump's event to a Nazi rally.

NEW YORK AG SUES TRUMP OVER FRAUD ALLEGATIONS

New York state Sen. Anna Kaplan, a Democrat who represents parts of Long Island, called on Americans to join her "in sharply denouncing the use of Nazi symbolism and imagery anywhere in our political process."

"Last night at a rally held by the former President, and today at a political rally held by a candidate for Governor of Pennsylvania, supporters were urged to hold up their right hands in a unified salute that should shock the conscience of every American for its remarkable similarity to the 'Heil Hitler' salute used by the Nazis," Kaplan said in a statement on Sunday.

Clinton also railed against Trump for trying to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, saying that she's worried about the undermining of the rule of law.

"I think it is fair to say we're in a struggle between democracy and autocracy," she said Friday.

Hillary Clinton compares Trump's Ohio event to a Nazi rally

Hillary Clinton is dusting off her husbands playbook by criticizing the Biden administrations open borders to put herself in place to mount a 2024 presidential run, veteran political consultant Dick Morrissaid in a new interview.

Morris, a former aide to President Bill Clinton, said Hillary is setting herself up to enter the race as a moderate choice for Democrats in two years for what would be her third shot at the White House.

I see more and more signs that Hillarys going to run, Morris told John Catsimatidis on his WABC 770 AM radio show in an interview that aired Sunday, noting that she has been remarking that Americans do not believe in open borders.

These are all signals that she is going to be the moderate candidate for president. Shes going to say after the election, See, the left cost us the House and the Senate. If we stay with a left-wing candidate in 2024, were going to lose the White House. Im the only one who will tack to the center and give us a chance at victory, Morris said.

Morris said hes aware of the strategy shes employing because its the strategy I designed for Bill Clinton in 1992 when he won the Democratic nomination.

Hillary is just dusting off Bills playbook that I wrote for him and applying it herself this year, he said.

The former secretary of state and senator from New York during an interview on MSNBC last month called out Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for flying migrants from Texas to Marthas Vineyard, alleging the Republican was engaging in human trafficking.

So many other Americans I happen to believe still the majority of Americans are good-hearted and generous and when people end up on their doorstep in need, theyre going to respond. Theyll feed them and house them and the kids in the AP Spanish class will be let out of high school so they can go and translate. Thats the kind of American spirit that we try to celebrate at the Clinton Global Initiative, she said on MSNBC on Sept. 16, adding nobody wants open borders who has any idea of how government and countries work.

Morris was building on comments he made to Catsimatidis on last weeks show when he predicted that Democrats will ditch President Biden in favor of Clinton over fears a more far-left candidate could end up nominated.

Once Biden pulls out, the polling will show that the Democrats are leaning toward some crazy radical like [California Gov.] Gavin Newson, [Vermont Sen.] Bernie Sanders. Maybeeven AOCherself, Morris said, referring to progressive lightning rod Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York.

Thats going to drive the Democratic Party leaders to go to Hillary and say, Hey look. Please run again. We need you to save us from the crazy left, Morris said.

Otherwise well have Sanders as our candidate. Well lose Congress by a ton. And well get wiped out in the presidential race.

Clinton ran in 2008, but lost the nomination to former President Barack Obama. She lost the 2016 presidential election to Donald Trump.

With the 2024 election looming upon us, talks of who and who will not run for president are beginning to heat up. Typically, candidates will wait until the midterm elections are over, which take place fall of this year, before announcing their bid for office -- but that doesn't stop the rumor mill from working double time.

All eyes are on the Republican side this year as they select their 2024 candidates. It is still unclear if former president Donald Trump will run again, though many predict that he will. According to CBS News, some were speculating that Trump would announce his candidacy early, long before the fall midterms, but that has yet to unfold.

For the Democratic side, President Joe Biden will likely run again on the ticket. He made it clear that if he does, he plans on running with Vice President Kamala Harris as his mate again. Although, with his low approval rating, a CNN poll found that 75% of Democratic voters would like to see a different candidate on their ticket come 2024.

With talks of a potential Democrat running in 2024, it's no surprise that all eyes are on Hillary Clinton. However, she has taken a firm stance on running again.

Hillary Clinton, a staple in Democratic politics for decades, recently sat down with CBS Evening News anchor Norah O'Donnell to discuss a long list of topics. She touched on everything from the behavior of former president Donald Trump, to what her future in politics looks like.

Clinton was passionate when asked whether or not she would take a bid at the White House again in 2024. "No -- no," Clinton quickly replied to O'Donnell when asked if she would ever run again. "But I'm gonna do everything I can to make sure that we have a president who respects our democracy and the rule of law and upholds our institutions."

She continued by stating that the Republican Party should take the first step, starting with Trump. "If Donald Trump runs again," the former secretary of state said, "He should be soundly defeated."

"It should start in the Republican Party -- grow a backbone! Stand up to this guy!" Clinton added. "And heaven forbid if he gets the nomination, he needs to be defeated soundly and sent back to Mar-a-Lago."
