A political operative for Donald Trump's campaign said Sunday that Hillary Clinton is likely to die during her first year in office should she be elected president.
John E. Jaggers, the Maryland and Northern Virginia state director for Trump's campaign, continued the Republican campaign's unfounded attack on Clinton's health during a “Moms 4 Trump” rally in Loudoun County.
“How many of you would wear a wool coat in August?” Jaggers asked the mostly-female crowd at Salamander Resort in Middleburg. “ The woman who seeks to be the first female president of the United States wears a wool coat at every single thing. Have you ever stopped to wonder why? It's a big deal, folks. This woman is very, very sick and they're covering it up. You're not so much talking about Hillary Clinton being president for eight years, you're talking about Tim Kaine being president for eight years. Because that's what we're dealing with here.”
Trump's communications director in Virginia has not responded to an email requesting elaboration on or evidence of the health claims.
The Clinton campaign has repeatedly dismissed attacks on the Democrat's well-being. A Clinton spokeswoman said the Republicans are pushing “deranged conspiracy theories.”
“Hillary Clinton has released a detailed medical record showing her to be in excellent health,” said Jennifer Palmieri with the Clinton campaign, “plus her personal tax returns since 1977, while Trump has failed to provide the public with the most basic financial information disclosed by every major candidate in the last 40 years. It’s time for him to stop using shameful distractions to hide his own record.”
Loudoun is a critical swing county in Virginia, where Clinton was leading Trump by 8 points in a recent Washington Post poll.

If it would help us win, I would be all for such speculation. I can just see this being made into an ad by the DNC or the Hellarybots - and I don’t like what I see.
That’s why I say it’s counter productive to speculate like this.
A commercial? No way!!!!
She looks ill. The LAST thing they want to do is bring attention to it.
Her medications are out there for the whole world to see and they are serious meds.
This is damaging to her.
While I try not to wish that on anyone, the wages of sin is death, and she is owed a ton of wages.
:: Clinton will die during first year in office ::
I suspect she has asked her medical team to keep her living until 1230 on 20JAN2017. Once she takes the Oath (which she won’t) her legacy as 1st female POTUS is sealed.
Much like Obamugabe’s legacy as the 1st African (truly!) American POTUS.
Identity politics.
Looks like a “bayou buggy” to me...
:: Regardless, Bubba will be tickled with a free run of the WH ::
You forgot to add the word “interns” to the end of that sentence.
Correctamundo! Just query Vince for his opinion.

I agree that her health is a big issue. But she went on Jimmy Kimmel’s show to discredit these “rumors” about her health, for instance. She did it by ridiculing those who cite her health as a problem. That’s what I mean by an ad. It would ridicule all who cite her health as a problem - as another vast right wing conspiracy nut creation.
But then again you may be right.
But then again YOU might be right!
We really dont know her health status, but it seems that she is ill in some form.
We have pictures, email leaks, search engine leaks and Dr Drew :) Not exactly concrete evidence.
We shall see.

An Arkancide victim. How many times did he shoot himself in the back of the head?
Bad tactic and Trump’s people need to stop already.
A LOT of Democrat voters hate Hillary enough, they’ll consider staying home. That’s a good thing!
Floating speculative stuff like this just encourages them to come out and vote—for Tim Kaine.
While it may be fun to denounce, we have to always try to be most effective; and in this case, there is such a mountain of cold fact to employ, why give up any part of our advantage, for self-satisfaction.
You get it.
Voters generally tend to focus on the POTUS candidate, and ignore the VP guy. (Unless VP candidate grabs spotlight-—refer to Sarah Palin.)
Floating rumors that Hillary is dying —true or not —will just push Kaine into the spotlight.
"Pass this anti-gun law in memory of Hillary". Never let a crisis . . .
