During a recent podcast appearance, former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton expressed her disapproval of tech billionaire Elon Musk's comments regarding pop star Taylor Swift's endorsement of Kamala Harris. Clinton described Musk's remarks as 'rotten' and 'creepy,' particularly taking issue with his statement that seemed to suggest forcing a child on Swift.
Clinton praised Swift for her influential fan base and the impact she brings to political endorsements. She noted that Swift's endorsement could have a significant effect due to her devoted following.
When the conversation shifted to Donald Trump's response to Swift's endorsement and Musk's subsequent social media post, Clinton criticized Musk for his unsettling comment. She highlighted Musk's words as implying a disturbing notion and equating it to a form of assault.
Clinton also addressed the scrutiny faced by Kamala Harris regarding policy details, pointing out a perceived double standard in expectations for female candidates. She emphasized the importance of addressing gender disparities within the Democratic Party to secure victory in the upcoming elections.
Reflecting on her own experiences during the 2016 presidential campaign, Clinton emphasized the significance of connecting with voters beyond policy discussions. She argued that a broader approach, encompassing issues of gender and representation, would be crucial for Democrats to succeed in future elections.
