Hillary Clinton: It’s A ‘Double Standard’ For Kamala Harris To Have To Explain Her Policies

 Twice-failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton claimed this week that Vice President Kamala Harris faced a “double standard” from voters who wanted her to explain her policy positions.

Clinton made the remarks during an interview with Kara Swisher on the “On with Kara Swisher” podcast only a couple of weeks after Harris finally released her policy platform after weeks of avoiding talking to the media.

Clinton suggested that Harris, who is now the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee, does not owe it to the voters or the media to explain her positions.

“She does not have to do it, Kara. I’m going to just cut to the chase,” Clinton said. “In fact, she’s put out policies on her campaign website. Anybody who’s truly interested can go and read about them. She referenced policies.”

“She actually doesn’t just have policies and concepts. She has plans about what to do,” Clinton claimed, even though Harris’ policy platform lacks specific detail on a wide range of issues. “I think it’s, um, you know, it’s a double standard and it’s a double standard that is partly because they are still getting to know her.”

 

“But also because they’re still grappling with the idea like, ‘Oh, am I really going to vote for a woman to be president and commander in chief?'” she continued. “This is particularly true, let’s just say it and underline it, about white women [voters].”
