“She doesn’t have to,” Clinton said to Kara Swisher, a reporter. In a misleading comment, Hillary Clinton declared that voters and reporters were holding 2024 Democratic candidate Kamala Harris to a “double standard” and that she had no responsibility to outline her policy positions in an interview.
“Kara, she is not obliged to do anything. On this week’s “On with Kara Swisher” episode, writer and podcast presenter Kara Swisher Clinton said, “I’m going to just cut to the chase.”
Her campaign website has a policy. You can read them if you’re so inclined. She mentioned policies. She has more than just ideas and policies. Clinton cited a policy page Harris had posted to her campaign website earlier this month when she said, “She has plans about what to do.”
“I think there is a double standard, and I think part of it concerns the fact that they’re still learning about her. She added, “because people are still arguing over whether or not to take a woman for president and commander in chief.”
“This is particularly true, let’s just say it and underline it, about White women [voters],” said Clinton.

Fox News Digital has reached out to Clinton’s office for a statement.
As of Tuesday, Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, had conducted at least 13 formal interviews in the month since announcing their candidacies for president. In that same period of time, former President Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, had conducted at least 54 interviews.
President Biden bowed out of the race 59 days ago, but Harris has not yet held a formal news conference.
This week, Clinton again criticized the media regarding how they covered both candidates in an interview with a left-leaning presenter.
In an interview with Rachel Maddow on MSNBC, Clinton said, “The press is still not able to cover Trump the way that they should.”
They move from one scandal to the next. Why it’s so hard for the media to provide a consistent story about how dangerous Trump is is beyond me. One day, the great Harry Evans, probably one of the best journalists, said reporters should genuinely strive to be objective. He meant, of course, that reporters ought to report the story. Donald Trump happens to be that story. His divisiveness. His threat to the globe and to our nation. And keep at it, she continued.
She uttered these words after the second assassination attempt on the former president.
Suspect Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, was taken into custody on Sunday after it was alleged he was seen aiming a rifle over a chain-link fence close to the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, where Trump was playing golf.
This year, Routh has taken to his social media accounts to echo Biden and Harris in anti-Trump rhetoric: “Democracy is on the ballot” and Democrats “can’t lose.”
Last July, attending a rally in Butler, Pa., Trump was shot at and narrowly escaped another murder attempt.
