The Florida Democrat was asked about Clinton's political future by MSNBC's Greta Van Susteren, who referred back to a recent interview with former Clinton presidential campaign manager Robby Mook, who wouldn't rule out another run for the White House by the former secretary of state.

"I think Hillary Clinton is doing exactly what she should be doing, using her very strong voice and her overwhelming popularity to help make sure that we can continue to advance the dialogue," Wasserman Schultz said.

Pressed again on whether Clinton has her eye on 2020, Wasserman Schultz said, "I think the last thing Hillary Clinton is thinking about right now is what she's doing in 2020."

Clinton just made headlines on Tuesday with her most political speech since the election. In California, she lamented the lack of women in Trump's administration and also took aim at White House press secretary Sean Spicer and Fox News' Bill O'Reilly. There have been numerous reports in recent weeks that Clinton is eyeing a run for New York City mayor, but nothing is confirmed yet.

Van Susteren also asked about comments made by Sen. Bernie Sanders about the Democratic Party needing a major overhaul that would see a move away from major donors and toward grassroots supporters.

"Respectfully to Sen. Sanders, we are already a grassroots party," Wasserman Schultz said. Asked if she thinks Sanders was wrong in his critique, the lawmaker replied, "no, it's actually more like semantics."

She really wants Trump to get a second term, doesn't she?

There are still a lot of hardcore Clinton primary supporters I know- even more hardcore than me, who are angry at Bernie and his claims that the Democratic party lacks grassroots support, as well as attacks on Hillary. I am surprised at how stalwart these people are.

It might well have plenty of grassroots support, but surely the point is that is doesn't have much effect on the party leadership.
