Washington (CNN)Hillary Clinton has one reaction to Donald Trump's use of a vulgar term directed toward her: Rise above.

"We are not responding to Trump but everyone who understands the humiliation this degrading language inflicts on all women should. #imwithher," Clinton Communications Director Jennifer Palmieri tweeted on Tuesday.

The dig at Trump comes after he attacked Clinton during a Monday night rally, saying she "got schlonged" in her last election -- using a term derived from a vulgar Yiddish word for penis - and that her extended bathroom break during the Democratic debate was "too disgusting" to talk about...................

1. T-rump basically said women going to the restroom is disgusting and now

this. The attack on fake news lady, can't think of her name was disgusting enough and he got away with it. Not with HRC, she will fight back.

..............The fluids of women in particular rattle Trump. When a lawyer who was questioning him during a 2011 deposition asked for a break so that she could leave the room and pump breast milk for her 3-month-old daughter, he was unhinged.

“You’re disgusting,” he berated her, according to a story in The Times earlier this year by Michael Barbaro and Steve Eder. Then he stormed out of the deposition.

More famously, he reflected on Megyn Kelly’s interrogation of him at the first Republican presidential debate by saying that “you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever.”

Clinton’s bathroom break — or, more precisely, Trump’s revulsion toward it — lies at the intersection of his misogyny and his fastidiousness. He’s a germophobe who once labeled himself “a clean hands freak,” called handshakes a “terrible custom” and said that the obligation to engage in them was one of the great curses of celebrity like his..................
