For the second time in as many days, Hillary Clinton conducted a press gaggle on Tuesday afternoon and while it was brief, Bloomberg’s Jennifer Epstein received the first question and made the Clinton team proud by lobbing softballs to Clinton about fears she’s “held to a different standard” than Donald Trump and if she’s worried that Republicans will be “continuing to dig into you” if she wins the election. 

Unlike Monday’s question and answer, the top cable networks of CNN, Fox News Channel, and MSNBC all carried it for the world to hear or at least what they could over the loud sounds of the airplane muddling many of their voices. After remarks hitting Trump for his refusal to release his tax returns, a Clinton staffer eagerly called on Epstein.
