Trump says Clinton’s “deplorables” remark is disqualifying
“Well, it will be in the next couple of days”. “I have just examined her and she is now re-hydrated and recovering nicely”, her doctor said.
She said she did not immediately disclose that she has been diagnosed with pneumonia because she “just didn’t think it was going to be that big a deal”.
The Clinton campaign said they are working with her doctor to release more medical records and urged Trump to do the same.
Clinton’s campaign promised she would release additional information from her primary physician in the wake of Sunday’s incident, which was captured on video as the candidate stumbled, requiring the help of aides to get into an SUV.
“I said you know, this is the time when there is a lot of resentment and small wounds”.
“I made the same choice to power through and I couldn’t do it at 100 percent and I wouldn’t have done it at zero percent and that’s what she’s trying to do”. And he said he plans to step down from it’s board of directors if Hillary Clinton wins in November, and that the foundation will stop accepting foreign and corporate contributions then as well. I felt overheated. I decided that I did need to leave. Once I could cool off.
It’s not unheard of for spouses to replace their husband and wife in office – but Bill Clinton wouldn’t be able to, due to the 22nd Amendment which prevents a President serving more than two terms.
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump are two of the oldest candidates to ever seek the presidency. “And, obviously, that did not work out so well”, she said.
The comments, though, combined with Clinton’s health scare Sunday at the 9/11 memorial she was captured on video struggling to step into a waiting van and her doctor later announced that she had been diagnosed with pneumonia could reshape the race, in which Clinton holds slim leads in several battleground states. Clinton herself even got into the act, calling into Anderson Cooper’s CNN show Monday night to insist that all really was well.
The episode has been re-spurring rumors from the right that she may be seriously ill and hiding it from the American public.
Speaking in Maryland Monday, Trump said he was shocked to hear Clinton “attack, slander, smear and demean these wonderful, awesome people who are supporting our campaign”.
One Republican voter wants Clinton to be more transparent.
But Trump has also attacked Americans who don’t intend to vote for him.
Clinton’s pneumonia disclosure was made public hours after her campaign said she had become “overheated” to explain why, her knees buckling and unsteady, she was rushed from the September 11 ceremony.
“The short-term turbulence will be more about the handling of this than the substance”, David Axelrod, a former political adviser to Obama, told Reuters. He tweeted: “Antibiotics can take care of pneumonia”. “What’s the cure for an unhealthy penchant for privacy that repeatedly creates unnecessary problems?”
In the previous poll by the same organistion a few weeks ago, Clinton was leading Trump in double digits. In recent weeks, Trump has suggested that Clinton lacked “the stamina” to president and criticized her campaign schedule.
During the exchange in a closed-door meeting Tuesday morning, Rep. Jeff Fortenberry of Nebraska asked the in governor what to say to his own daughter when she expresses concerns about Trump’s views on women.
