This would always be a thoughtful message but after the outcome of the US presidential election, it's even more poignant.

People are still reeling at the news that Donald Trump is to be the new American President and both he and his main opponent, Hillary Clinton, are still dominating the headlines almost two days after the result. Pantsuit Nation is a Facebook group with over three million members, all of whom support Clinton, and to thank them for having faith in her, she left a message with the group yesterday. In case you're wondering what the idea behind the name is, it's a way of paying homage to Clinton's signature pantsuit and many of its members turned up to vote, wearing a pantsuit. Spotted on Brit + Co, Jenna Lowenstein manages Clinton's digital platforms and she passed on the message, which you can read in full below.

"Dear Pantsuit Nation, (have you ever heard a better name?!) "On this historic day, I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your support from the bottom of my heart. This election hasn't been easy: It's been long, hard-fought, and at times it made us question who we are as Americans. For some of you, it's been difficult to feel like you could wear your support on your sleeve — and that's why this community has been such a special place. Your stories and photos of family members and friends are wonderful to see, but what truly warms my heart is the thousands of comments of support and love you all send to each other. "I’m honored and humbled to have all of you with me, but I’m even prouder to see this community represent the best of America: people of all backgrounds and beliefs who share a vision for a brighter future for our children, and who have each other’s backs. That’s who we really are, and tonight, we’re going to prove it. "Thank you all so much for your hard work, your support, your votes. Tonight, I hope we'll break through that highest, hardest glass ceiling together, and use those pantsuits for the best occasion of all, celebrating. H".

Sadly, and so many of us are angry because of it, Clinton didn't break the "highest, hardest glass ceiling" but her words will make you remember that someday, some woman will.
