The stumbling came from some sort of neurological disorder. She wasn’t stumbling. She had to be lifted into the van. She was incapable of walking.
I believe that those with Parkinson’s (and the type of vascular dementia she is purported to have is supposed to cause Parkinson’s-like symptoms as well) place a hand on their chest sometimes to stop the the visible tremors in their hands.
Yes, you can see from her stiff, toe-pointed right leg in the video.
“CNN just looks utterly stupid.”
Wolf just talking to their medical guy. Much talk for de-hydration from this or that. No question trying to play up the “not serious” angle.
The Dr. does point out that without a medical check-up, no way to know what it is. A natural follow-up point is why didn’t they rush her to get that check-up. Answer is because they already know.
And yet they can’t just take her to the hospital. I think about all of the people they would have to kill to keep silent...
Sorry I arrived in USA in 1960 and previous history is not on tip of my tongue. But I can tell you a lot of British history and India history because that is what I studied in school.
BUt you just made my point. FDR was extremely popular IN SPITE OF HIS PHYSICAL DISABILITY. Which also means AMerican people thought he was a good president. Because obviously his mental capacity was very good. Therefore only low information voters will focus on any candidates physical stature instead of their mental prowess.
There appears to be three people there, other than S.S. types. Are they medical people? Chances are...
Analysis - Anthony Zurcher, BBC News, Washington
George HW Bush once vomited on a Japanese prime minister. His son fainted in the White House after nearly choking on a pretzel. Franklin Roosevelt hid his serious health conditions, and John F Kennedy never spoke of his debilitating back condition.
The difference between these men and Hillary Clinton, however, is that her "overheating" episode comes in the home stretch of a presidential campaign where she seeks to tie Ronald Reagan as the oldest person ever elected to a first term as president.
Then there are the conspiracy theories about her health - some of them advanced by top Trump campaign surrogates - which will only become more prominent, particularly after Mrs Clinton left her press pool in the dark for more than two hours on Sunday.
Age has been a factor in several recent presidential elections. Both John McCain in 2008 and Bob Dole in 1996 would have easily shattered Reagan's record. Donald Trump, at age 70, has his own health questions to address.
Sunday's episode may end up being simply an annoying distraction for the Democrats. Now, however, people who would otherwise have shrugged off Mrs Clinton's health rumours will be watching her activity more closely.
And those two guys are so ho hum about it, like they’ve heaved the same sack of potatoes into the back of the truck 100 times now.
The only danger for Trump at this point would be to overplay it or to somehow misguidedly give her too proactive a pass on it.
And since Bannon and Conway took over, his campaign seems to have pretty much stopped making mistakes.
In the photo posted at 1113 the woman in the blue dress and talking on the cellphone is carrying Hillary’s purse that Hillary was carrying earlier in the day.
I agree that it looks like the woman holding Hillary is checking her pulse as they walk.
Calling it heat exhaustion - but nobody thought to shed a long-sleeve jacket?
Coverup is ongoing. The press knows she's "not right." All that's changed is the addition of a new piece of public evidence, desspite best efforts to prevent such evidence from being created.
The system can tolerate millions of people knowing the truth. Millions of people know or believe that dual citizens aren't qualified to be president, for example.
Whatever is bothering her the visible manifestations are episodic and she recovers quickly from them. She can also do appearances but obviously not in a free wheeling manner. Whatever can be controlled they do their best to control. I guess it’s possible to continue to campaign in this manner but it’s going to be also somewhat episodic in nature.
No.
FDR’s physical disabilities were hidden from Americans.
But yes, if Greg Abbott were to be elected president, his confinement to a wheelchair would not be an issue.
Thanks!
Episodic and responsive to drugs. She needs people standing by to administer them.
