How ill is Hilary Clinton?

Do we know? Rumours fly around among media and suchlike. I don't know enough but I'm putting this here for discussion purposes.

Rumour has it, she has PD - Parkinson's disease

Too long to c&p so here's a link I found and I can't remember where I found it

Another right-wing conspiracy theory backed up by pure nonsense ...

I don't know where I got the link but I'm thinking it was from a YouTube page, I'd saved it for some reason.

I have no idea about it at all and I didn't know she was even showing signs of illness. I do remember her having a head injury though, but thought that was last year? You know what my memory is like.

I'm not nearly as concerned about Hilary's health, as I am about the mental health of Donald 'the assassin' Trump. Here is a person raised as a bully, no stranger to lying and evasion, who wants to return to a world full of nuclear weapons...not because he appreciates the brinksmanship of Mutually Assured Destruction, but because he is narcissistic enough to want to be the first to push the button.

Talk about sick.

Yes, this is the story that "Hillary's sick" nonsense is supposed to distract us from.

So she's not ill, then?

A 2013 memo from Huma, speaking about issues, not health? "PD hand posturing?" "Wide-eyed?" Do these even sound like well grounded accusations? They sound like a 'husband-wife' brawl ("...she was wide-eyed and held a butcher knife." Lol), which coming from Republicans, would by typical.

I am much more concerned about the mental health of Trump. Why was he taking 'crazy' a few years back about the birther issue? Could he have been losing it then? Why does he come on to the candidacy with all of this return-to-juvenile name-calling, and gratuitous insulting. Moreover, has he ever expounded on any issue? His plan for ISIS? His immigration policy? What is in his tax returns that he is so paranoid about them? His promise to "Make America Great Again", when America is already at the top of its game?

Here's a crazy man deteriorating right before our eyes, and we tolerate it because he's the candidate! The Hilary issue is another, look over there, don't look over here. The real concern is that a Republican Party that even disavows it's own candidate, maybe knows something we don't--and maybe is trying to tell us something we need to know?

I don't know. I have to bow out as I never even heard these rumours until today and I did some googling.

Thing is, if she is actually quite ill, she might just win a point with me; I'd admire her ability to go through a huge campaign whilst feeling that poorly.

There's a reason why you just heard today.  Trump has appointed a new campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway.  

Her big strategy is stop and pivot.  When the topic is adverse to your candidate, stop and pivot the discussion around to the other side.  For weeks the topic of the conversation has been Trump's temperament and his suitability for the top job, given the nuclear button.  Suddenly, for his surrogates it's...Stop!  And pivot...   Now, suddenly, we are talking about the same thing, only about the other side.

In context, you can't take the Hillary stuff seriously.

Perhaps that's true. As I say, I really have to bow out as I can't comment.
This "news" Ian tree though Quill, some of the stories on google were much older than today.

Oh dear. For amusment I think it's time to start making a list of the desperate diversonary things Trump's camp is doing. (yes I'm sure they are behind this)


First his porny glamour model wife announced with impecaccable timing that she will be suing the people who claimed  she was the sort who would drop her pants if the price was right. (Would she even have gone anywhere near Trump if he was a pauper?)

Now  Hillary is supposed to be sick. Has anyone informed her how sick she is yet ?- she doesn't seem to know.

Explain what you mean, Dean.  Who is barry?  We have made some references to Barry Goldwater as the last time a candidate as bad as Trump, stood for office.  Is that what you mean?  

Proliferation of what?  

The payment to Iran was of Iran's money, held by the US, and releasing it was a part of the Iran deal to get them to give up their nuclear materials.  All-in-all, it was a pretty good deal, wouldn't you say? We'll give you what is already yours, eh? It's more of the RW bluff to say it was anything else...all appearances , so the RW screams and hollers.  It was used as an additional hedge, but that's just getting more for your bargain.  Otherwise, nothing to it.
