We should tweet, text and email this to every media person out there. The double standard is staggering.

She has to deal with the sexism, there is the normal double standard that the media applies to Democratic vs. Republican candidates.

Is still hammering on the damn emails. Trump has lied so many times there could be a novel written with the lies. Crooked Trump, Lyin' Trump, and he has small hands.

This is the first time that a major party's nominee had a child out of wedlock, at least that has been confirmed. (There were rumors about Grover Cleveland).

If Bernie had been the Democratic nominee, and Bush, Rubio or Cruz had been the Republican nominee, they would have probably attacked him for not being married when his son was born.

If Hillary--or Elizabeth Warren, had she been the nominee--had a baby out of wedlock the GOP would have absolutely slaughtered them over it.

Of course, Nancy Reagan was pregnant when she and Ronnie got married. So double standards abound.

proper perspective.

Today I listened to a Tea Party darling complain about The Clinton Foundation accepting money from foreign entities (for charitable purposes no less), no mentioned of Trump's $650 million debt to Russian Oligarchs.

"That is how good you have to be if you’re a woman running for president — and she still might lose to this,” she said, with an image of Trump behind her. “The least qualified candidate ever to lurch into the public spotlight and shit on Gold Star moms while cradling Putin’s sweaty sack. … Let’s hope Hillary doesn’t get lipstick on her teeth between now and November or it’s all over."
