Maybe you would have. But I bet the number of people commenting on their age would have been very different. We tend to see young men who achieve a lot as precocious and talented, whereas we're distrustful of young women who show the same skill, talent and drive. It's an implicit bias, not intentional.

She has to deal with a lot of hateful attacks
Anybody in that situation would be stressed

A lot of hateful attacks?
I am just not getting that obsession with her.
And I voted for another candidate for this role.
But I support her in this situation and hope she will get through it.

I don't know that she's dealt with any more hateful attacks than any other elected official deals with. Both sides of the political spectrum are guilty of it, and I suppose it speaks more broadly about what we have become as a society, unfortunately.

Nobody, and I mean nobody, gets more hate than Trump.

Aren’t you guys speculating why she has depression? Has she commented on this?

I'm sorry is it not true? Every President in my adult life, starting with W has received the same BS hate from the opposing party. Call a spade a spade, both parties are only in it for enriching themselves, but America is too stupid to figure it out.

Yeah, these are only the speculations.
But anyway she already had her first corruption case quite early in the career.
She managed to get away with it, but think about it, that probably adds some more stress and anxiety.
No matter what, there's no smoke without a fire.
