Trump spokeswoman claims Clinton has rare brain disease

A top spokesperson for Donald Trump claimed Thursday that Hillary Clinton has brain damage that impairs her ability to communicate.

Speaking on MSNBC, Katrina Pierson alleged that Clinton has a disorder called "dysphasia," a condition brought on by brain trauma that erodes a person's ability to speak or comprehend language.

"What's new are the other reports or observations of Hillary Clinton's behavior or mannerisms ... as well as her dysphasia, the fact that she's fallen, she has had a concussion, there are really interesting things out there," Pierson said.

Trump has long claimed that Clinton lacks the physical stamina to be president and has stated repeatedly that she takes weekends off to catch up on her sleep.

But Trump and his campaign have not directly engaged with conspiracy theories, circulated on ultra-right wing blogs and talk shows, that Clinton's health is badly deteriorating and that the media is complicit in a cover-up.

There is no evidence to back those claims up and Clinton's physician, Dr. Lisa Bardack, has repeatedly stated that the former secretary of State is fit to serve.

Recently, Bardack released a statement to address the conspiracy theories around apparent falsified medical records with her name on them saying that Clinton has dysphasia.

"These documents are false, were not written by me and are not based on any medical facts," Bardack said. "To reiterate what I said in my previous statement, Secretary Clinton is in excellent health and fit to serve as President of the United States."

Pierson on Thursday said Clinton could clear up the confusion by holding a press conference in which she shows she's capable of fielding questions.

"It's important to note that Hillary Clinton has taken a lot of time off the campaign trail," Pierson said. "It's something that needs to be addressed,

“Facts are facts there is something wrong with her.”

It’s why her public appearances are infrequent, scripted, and tightly controlled. She’s very fragile, and could fold up at any moment.

PS we have all noticed the quality of 'writers' going down the tubes for the past eight plus years. Poorly written is only the beginning.

If so TRUMP should place the Exorcist on his recently enhanced and enlarged staff; just to cover all the bases.

Lack of factual medical information didn’t stop Clinton’s media lapdogs from diagnosing Trump.

Remeber when she was late (TWICE) coming back to the stage during her debates?

When she finally waddled back on-stage she looked like a toddler walkng around.

No running because she was late, not even walking hurredly (as if it was important) - she was stepping gingerly as if she could barely walk.

Ah, making specific assertions may not be normally appropriate.

But if the media goes ballistic on this one, guess what? The public learns there's a controversy about Hillary's health.

If the press are willing to go there, Trump wins because the issue is raise and the MSM follow where it all leads.

There have been countless times in this campaign where the hyperbole created a push-back and that media push-back exposed facts that the public became conscious of.

Let it be so. America must find the light and begin to ask questions if we are to survive as a Nation.

Good point, V K.

From the standpoint of truth and transparency over who we elect as POTUS, there's absolutely nothing wrong with asking these questions.

And you know damn well: if the press determines that Trump even catches a cold, the MSM would be all over it 24/7.

It's time to let the genius of media manipulation call his own shots. And he just hired the second best manipulator of the media as his campaign CEO, Steve Bannon.

Let Trump be Trump. Trump knows exactly what he's doing. And what often seems dumb by conventional media relations standards, usually turns into a very good decision in hindsight.
