Hillary Clinton not dead from heart attack, as fake news site claims

An online story about former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton suffering not just one heart attack, but three, is a fake news story concocted by a parody site run by a liberal troll.

"Breaking: Hillary Clinton has third heart attack — docs says she ‘won’t survive’," read the headline on a July 28, 2017, post on PoliticsPaper.com. Facebook users flagged the post as being potentially fabricated, as part of the social media site’s efforts to combat fake news.

The article called Clinton the "Butcher of Benghazi" and quoted Dr. Eugene Icsa of Westchester Memorial Hospital in upstate New York as saying, "We predict she’ll be at rest within hours."

The story further said daughter Chelsea was visiting, but husband and former President Bill Clinton was "sitting on the front porch of the Chappaqua mansion drinking what looks like either tomato juice or a Bloody Mary."

There have been no other reports of Hillary Clinton suffering a massive coronary episode; it’s because she hasn’t. The story is fake.

The photo ostensibly of a doctor feverishly working to save Clinton’s life is actually a stock photo we most recently found on a Seattle Times story about the challenges facing trauma nurses.

There’s not even a Westchester Memorial Hospital in upstate New York, as far as we can tell. There is a Westchester Medical Center in Westchester, N.Y., but that’s it.

This is good emotional practice for when the real thing happens. I almost didn’t smile that time...

The title gave the thing away. Hillary Clinton does not have a heart, so there is no way she could have a heart attack.

I hear there’s not much left of her liver, either. *SMIRK*

Future Democrat candidates will make you pine for the Good Old Days when the Democrats ran candidates as Conservative as Hillary Clinton.

“Fake news site claimed.” It hard to find one that isn’t fake.
