    Have I been living under a rock? I’ve never seen this many headlines about someone successfully/uneventfully negotiating through an interview before. It feels weirdly patronizing? Hard to describe.

      The media had been hyping this up as a big test of her ability because she hadn’t done a major tv interview yet. It’s silly, because trump can’t handle these at all and no one cares, plus I’ve seen her do tv interviews before, just not the longer format prerecorded ones. We’ve seen her off the cuff plenty of times.

        Yeah the standard is just so low already, it’s like what’s it matter. But then, if you remove a certain anomaly from the equation–and, as someone else pointed out–compare to Biden’s interviews, I guess there’s merit.
