Hillary Rodham Clinton

In a very special episode of "Just Something About Her," Jennifer talks to the inspiration for this podcast: Hillary Rodham Clinton. As the communications director for Sec. Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign, Jennifer was consistently confronted with detractors who – when asked why they wouldn't vote for Sec. Clinton – would respond by saying, "I don't know, there's just something about her I don't like" (or "I don't trust," etc.).

Years later, the two finally come together to decode why women like Sec. Clinton are branded as untrustworthy, inauthentic, or divisive (to name a few). They discuss why, despite significant progress since the 2016 election, women still didn't win any primaries or caucuses in the 2020 election. Sec. Clinton opens up about gendered expectations that plagued her during her campaign for the presidency, how speaking out against injustice makes women polarizing, and even weighs in on the debate about gun policy and the filibuster. You don't want to miss this one!
