I think it deserved more than none (on CNN).

I don’t. It’s a curiosity at best.

Now, Hillary fainting and having to be shoved head first into an awaiting van, that should have been covered more. This story is straight-up insignificant.

IMO a curiosity merits as much (or more) of a mention than the climate conference bilge, most of which didn’t even rise to the level of a curiosity. Not to mention (pun intended) that their non-mention of a blatantly visible physical condition is a continuation of their raging hypocrisy.

> blatantly visible physical condition

It’s less concerning than a sunburn, medically. Trying to play it up as something significant plays fast and loose with the facts.

Ask a doctor how significant it is, if you don’t believe me. I did when it happened to me. One day I looked in the mirror and there was a big blood spot in the white of my eye. I freaked of course, called the doc, he said it was common and not indicative of a problem, and it went away on its own after a couple of weeks, never to return.

I have a medical background and I am aware of its significance/insignificance. Completely ignoring the occurrence of an obvious physical event in the leading candidate is also “playing fast and loose with the facts”.

Completely ignoring it is wholly appropriate when there’s a dementia/Alzheimers elephant in the medical concerns room. If we’re going to crack open the medical-condition conversation, we don’t even get to the eye thing it’s so trivial compared to his brain problems.

I see. So that’s why CNN ignored it?

I care not a whit for the predictable manipulations of CNN. One may as well complain about the wind or the rain.

Maybe I should run for President: no aneurysms, zero medications.

Oh, wait... I would need to run as a DemoKKKrat.

Nevermind.

I’ve seen this in my medical background numerous times...in reptiles. In Horny toads this is common.

My right eye got ‘beat up’ pretty bad during cataract surgery (it was a difficult case) and it took weeks for the blood to clear ...
