Armed with junk science and old photos, critics question #HillarysHealth
The Washington Post ^ | August 8th, 2016 | By David Weigel

The first week of August was a rough one for Donald Trump's campaign; by coincidence, it was also a busy one for Trump supporters, who see a media coverup protecting Hillary Clinton. Over the weekend, the Trump campaign released a Web ad that mocked Clinton's admission that she "short-circuited" by giving a misleading answer about the investigation into her emails.

"She took a short-circuit in the brain," Trump said at a Saturday night rally. "She's got problems. Honestly, I don't think she's all there."

At the same time, the Drudge Report, WorldNetDaily and a small army of would-be Twitter sleuths tried to build the case that the Democratic nominee for president has serious health issues and only they had noticed. Clinton's age and health had been subject to parody by some conservative media, but the new speculation was completely serious.

None of the evidence, often shared (or sent to reporters) with the hashtag #HillarysHealth, held up. In every case, a Clinton moment that had been captured by the media was reinterpreted and wrenched out of context. The highest-profile #HillarysHealth discovery came at the American Mirror, an obscure conservative news site with what it packaged as a scoop — "SHOCK PHOTO" — but had been aggregated from Twitter.

What do you mean by “fake”? Is it a setup by someone? If so, who?

She tells them that they simply MUST try the latte she’s having. Really trying to blow it off like she was just being silly.

I have a feeling that over the next three months we will see a lot of this sort of thing. I think they will probably be forced to replace her before the election, putting the whole thing in crisis mode.

There is clearly something wrong with her. This black guy has got her back on track by just talking to her and apparently by some accounts with a flashlight. But whether that object is an injection device or a flashlight this guy has it ready at all times.
While I would never wish ill on anybody but my first wife, I think she is getting worse and will not be able to hide it too much longer.

I don't know if Hillary has health problems or not, or if the fall she took a few years ago has consequences today, or if she is shadowed by a doctor with a injection pen of medicine, but I do know that the big networks and the AP have not run a story on the current speculation about her health:

Hillary...
why is someone who is somewhat unwell,
going up the center of the stairs,

instead of being near a handrail,
(as the woman behind her is doing)

Watch carefully, not long after he appears, the light appears to flicker on the wall and door, so what he’s carrying might be a slim torch.
As you say, they won’t be able to hide it much longer.

Right, and when he approaches and says something she looking up and around and then starts looking down toward where the light would be showing. You can see the light on the guys coat in the foreground.

WaPo ridicules the conspiracy theorists and Trump, but at no time to they directly address the facts, nor do they ask Clinton or her Campaign pointed, direct questions on Clinton's health....

This is their first trial balloon. They will walk it back as the balloons deflate. They are testing to see where they have to go to get an excuse that will work for them.

Directives lifted straight out of the RATagandist's instruction manual. (Rules for Radicals)

>>WaPo is working with Hillary.

with added music in the background

Yes, why do the "tubers" always feel the need to add music to their videos...because they can?

Where was The Handler during that bathroom break?

Maybe it really was an "extended bathroom break" and they were frantically cleaning her up, changing her diaper and pantsuit, and putting her all back together.

What if...there is more acting than reality and the woman is planning to use her “health” to get out of a prison term? Maybe we haven’t heard the half on her treasonous activities. Naw...she is closer to assisted living than the White House.
