Hillary Clinton said Republicans have created a “Hillary standard” that has contributed to the negative impression many people have of her, giving her first joint interview with her newly announced running mate, Sen. Tim Kaine.
"I often feel like there's the Hillary standard and then there's the standard for everybody else," the presumptive Democratic nominee said in the interview on CBS News' "60 Minutes."
Clinton explained that there has been a "concerted effort" by Republicans to portray her in a negative light, and described the double standard she believes is set for her as “unfounded, inaccurate, mean-spirited attacks with no basis in truth, reality, which take on a life of their own."
Clinton also she will not respond to the repeated name-calling from Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump or make a name for him, the way he calls her "Crooked Hillary.”
"I don't call him anything, and I'm not going to engage in that kind of insult-fest that he seems to thrive on," Clinton said. "So whatever he says about me, he's perfectly free to use up his own air time and his own space.”
Kaine chimed in to say that while Clinton is letting the "water go off her back on this," that's not the way he feels.
"When I see this, you know, 'Crooked Hillary,' or I see the, 'Lock her up,' it's just ridiculous. It is ridiculous," he said. "I just, you know, it is beneath the character of the kind of dialogue we should have. Because we got real serious problems to solve. And look, most of us stopped the name-calling thing about fifth grade."
Throughout their first joint interview, the two running mates appeared relaxed and at ease -– praising and encouraging each other.

So do we, Mrs Clinton, so do we.
I think she’ll find the VICTIM CARD will not be quite as effective this time around.

The Opressed Queen of Chappaqua!
Who knew?
Tell me the one about being Dead Broke under Sniper Fire...

Nope, and her trademark is to go directly to her worst rape of others and claim it as a defense - in this case a Hillary Standard that obviously works for her, that she then identifies and claims works against her. And then she refuses to answer any questions about her behavior.
The worst thing, though, is that millions of her female followers imitate her behavior, and destroy their own relationships doing so. Millions of Hillary mini-me's.
It's a national nightmare.
She is always the victim...
So if crooked Hillary gets sick, dies, gets indicted or is otherwise rendered unelectable, will the RATs attempt to put Kaine forward as the replacement candidate?
Well, yea . . . isn’t it still called “The Vast Right Wing Conspiracy?”
It’s alive and well.
And look, most of us stopped the name-calling thing about fifth grade.”

Democrats: Racist,sexist,homophobe,nativist, and a few “ist’s” I haven’t even heard of.
Another honest democrat leader. s/
VERY many think that, also.
Hillary does it 1,000 times --> no charges
Peon does it ONE time --> Fired, imprisoned
Is there some word beyond hubris?
can you elaborate a bit more clearly? tia
Crooked Hillary ? Prefer Hillary the Great myself. Lol. And Hillary probably also does. Yep, now she will blame everything on those nasty Republicans. Time to take your blue pills lefties.
After this weekends email dump, Hillary might be seeking political asylum soon
the “Hillary standard” is the new “vast right wing conspiracy”.
And, if they’re not imitating her wretched behavior....they’re looking the other way and whole-heartedly approving of it!
