"This was a weird shit" Hillary apparently said on Howard Stern

I came at the end of this segment on Smerconish.

He later had Patti Solis Doyle asking why had Hillary not behave this "naturally" during her 2008 and 2016 campaign.

Really? Really? First, we still have a double standard here. Women, still, expect to keep a decorum. As a matter of fact, all candidates keep the decorum. The worst is "malarkey." Did not help Beto with too much "fuck" in his speech.

Yes, by now, we got used to an occupant of the White House using "gutter speech" but I doubt that anyone else would get away with it.

(But am curious to what she referred to in "weird shit.&quot

She quoted GHW after Trumps inaugural speech as saying”Well that was some weird shit.”

Now that’s from memory so be nice.

she referred. Still, Smerconish's comment was that during her campaign she'd never mentioned something like that. And chuckling.

Some folks mind. They’ll find something or make it up. Smerconish is either one of them or tries to keep them watching.

It's not even close. My mother used to have a curse-list (abbreviated and not said of course), with damn being the smallest curse, ass in the middle, shit ahead, and F as the worst of the worse. Hell was viewed as an under-curse, the worst word you can say without being an official curse.
