The New Yorker reveals cover it would have published if Hillary Clinton won

In the ten months since Hillary Clinton lost the presidential election to Donald Trump, plenty of people had wondered what might have been had things turned out differently.

Some supporters of Ms Clinton remain in denial, others took Mr Trump’s victory as a call to arms and an inspiration "to resist". Plenty of people, Ms Clinton among them, are still pained and anguished.

Yet one issue has been resolved: the front cover that the progressive New Yorker magazine would have published had America elected its first female president, rather than the former host of The Apprentice.
The image shows Ms Clinton gazing at the moon from what appears to be the interior of the Oval Office in the White House. Many have said the image - which would have been viewed with optimism by many of the magazine’s readers had Ms Clinton won last - takes on a new power and melancholy as a result of her defeat to Mr Trump.
