Hillary came over. Ask not Hillary Who. Secret Service types stayed outside. We were alone. Just we two. An off-the-record old-time longtime friendship. No interview. No Q&A. No notes. No quotes. I’m just remembering. Should my memory prove faulty, you can cancel my order for a new Studebaker.

She favors Cuomo. Appreciates his stance on gun control.

About our next mayor. Ain’t her. She thinks somebody with a name and portfolio — such as Bloomberg, or someone like him.

About the conga line for president. No good words about no good Bernie Sanders. Stuff like: Anyone overtaking him in a district considered his, he’ll burn the place down.

She acknowledges Kamala Harris’ ability, calls non-winner Elizabeth Warren “smart as a whip,” likes Montana’s newest newie, Gov. Steve Bullock, and says each dwarf (my word, not hers) asked her advice.

Quote: “I remember when politics used to be fun.” And: “Russia will always meddle in our political system.”

She looked marvelous. Hair perfect. Makeup perfect. Outfit perfect. Carried only her phone. Three-piece, navy Akris pantsuit, matching rhinestone-studded Jimmy Choo pumps. Gold bracelet. No earrings.

Slim. “I’m dieting. I’m trying. I take walks. I’m working out. I have a beautiful backyard with surrounding trees, and flowers and greens, and I enjoy sitting outside reading.”

Coffee, fruit, a bagel, many laughs, and we told each other stories. Over a cream cheese schmear, she recalled her 1974 lawyer days when she was working on a Nixon memo describing exactly “what’s an impeachable event.”

A book on the horizon

October, Simon & Schuster will publish Hillary and daughter Chelsea’s “Book of Gutsy Women.” A compendium of Earth’s big-time females starting from B.C. — before computers — such as France’s Marie Antoinette, radium’s Marie Curie, from back when only boobs flashed their boobs and nobody could spell Kardashian. The book favors such first ladies as Eleanor Roosevelt, Betty Ford and Barbara Bush, yet somehow neglects to include Nancy Reagan. Discussing today’s world, she recalled how after 9/11 she and Chuck Schumer were the ones who pressed then President Bush’s $20 billion allocation to NYC. And she’ll be a grandma again. Her daughter’s having baby No. 3. It’s a busy household. Chelsea even has a Yorkie, age 12.

That’s not right

A publicist’s release says Chris Mann’s new single debuts “May 31th.” Congratulationth . . . Another says I’m in John King’s new paperback, and I don’t know who/what that is . . . Another: “ti action star” Paul Mormando’s in “Silent Partners” with “Django Unchained’s” James Russo . . . P.R. stuff’s as exciting as seeing Anthony Weiner in the shower.

Congrats, Isabella

Isabella Rossellini says she owes her new Master’s degree from Hunter College in Animal Behavior to her father, director Roberto Rossellini, and Oscar-winner mom, Ingrid Bergman . . . High-class, elegant, supremely VIP diner Dan Cathy was at the 21 Club. He owns Chick-fil-A. It’s at airports, restaurants, hospitals, etc. So this supremely elegant gent, what was he eating? Chicken hash.

Why do people condemn Russia? It’s really growing quite democratic. Pravda even began a letters-to-the-editor section this year. Not exactly a New York Post version. Theirs publishes all beefs, criticisms and complaints — but you have to give your name, address and next of kin.

Said Only in DC, kids, Only in DC.
