[McGruff]

The leading Democratic candidate, Hillary Clinton, was hit with a "coughing attack" midway through remarks today in Iowa:

Clinton is in Iowa, where a CNN town hall is scheduled for tonight. Clinton is 68 years old.

New York Times reporter Amy Chozick wondered on Twitter whether Clinton would even be able to finish her remarks.

[McGruff]

Now be nice.

[Cboldt]

I bet the “crowd” was relieved. A windfall!

[CA Conservative]

Hairball??

[COUNTrecount]

Must have been a hair in her throat.

Was I nice?

[CMailBag]

Old, Tired, and Unhealthy.

[chris37]

How long was the hair?

[Puppage]

“Carpet fibers?”

Transcript:

*cough* You suck! *cough*

There’s something really wrong with Hillary. Trump’s right, she’ll stay in the race no matter what to keep out of jail.

[henkster]

She needed something to wash it down with. Like a pint of Ten High.

[eastforker]

Persian hair ball.

[going hot]

Choking on her own words, love it!

[forgotten man]

She tried to tell the truth for a change. Damn near killed her.

[longfellow]

DIE!

[twister881]

She did this during the Benghazi hearing after hours in front of the committee. A sign of aging and fatigue: The epiglottis fails to cover the windpipe opening quickly or completely enough when swallowing, and coughing ensues. Hillary is not physically or mentally fit to be POTUS, let alone her Stalinist views on just about everything.

[PROCON]

Well, that was embarrassing to watch. She’s old, that clip will definitely turn-off the healthy yutes.

[BenLurkin]

She only needed a swig of “grandma’s medicine”

[prisoner6]

And so the “health issues” begin so she has a reason to withdraw from the race.

[Billthedrill]

I’ve heard of that before. If she starts to puke pea soup and her head spins 720 degrees we’ll be calling for an exorcist. Probably overdue.

[Safetgiver]

Did she puke? I did.
