I suspect more “Clintonism” than sexism, though the latter gets some traction also, such as Reince Preibus’s tweet after the event saying she doesn’t smile.

How many times did Lauer interrupt Hillary last night, compared to Trump? What standard is she being held to compared to his?

There is a shit ton of sexism at play here and a lot of it just isn’t being called out. But most women will tell you that the line you’re expected to be able to walk is so fine as to be non-existent, especially when you’re a strong woman pushing your way into what’s considered a “man’s” role.
