Hillary Clinton: 'Nobody Said A Word' When It Was My Fake Severed Head

"SNIP...........



Hillary Clinton called out the vulgar depictions of her during the 2016 presidential campaign and noticed they didn’t receive the same backlash that comedian Kathy Griffin faced for posing with a fake bloody severed head of President Donald Trump earlier this year.

During the latest episode of Clinton’s campaign-related podcast “With Her,” the former Democratic nominee discussed the research that found a negative correlation between a women’s professional success and her likability.

She then compared Griffin’s gruesome photo to the anti-Clinton merchandise unofficial vendors were selling at the Republican National Convention.

“I’ve always just sucked it up,” Clinton said about the gender bias she’s experienced as a successful woman working in government. “I sucked it up in ’08 when some really unpleasant things happened to me ... And I sucked it up in the 2016 campaign when I was called names and things were said and done to me.”
