CNBC Washington correspondent and the co-hosts of CNBC’s Squawk Box briefly discussed during Friday’s show the age difference between Hillary Clinton and Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio that included Harwood knocking Rubio for “look[ing] like a schoolboy” compared to Clinton. 

Having just slammed the double standard being applied by some on the left in excusing the wealth of the Clintons but not that of Mitt Romney, co-host Joe Kernen sarcastically suggested that “Hillary needs to sue...Rubio for age discrimination” since “[h]e keeps bringing up this 23-year difference in age.”
