Clinton Ally Calls Pneumonia Controversy A “Self Inflicted F****** Nightmare”
Young Conservatives ^ | September 12, 2016 | Andrew Mark Miller

Posted on 09/13/2016 5:15:29 AM PDT by xzins

Hillary Clinton proved once again this weekend that she just can’t tell the truth.

Even about the simplest things.

She almost collapsed on the sidewalk in New York City and her team assured us she was just a little overheated.

Turns out, she was diagnosed with pneumonia two days before.

It also looks like her team didn’t take her to the emergency room in order to keep the medical details under wraps.

Even allies of the Clinton campaign are stunned at the level of secrecy about her health.

Here is the great Matt Vespa with more.

From Townhall:

Once again the Clinton provided another reason for voters to remain skeptical about her honesty and trustworthiness. For the Clinton camp, this aura of secrecy once again bit them in the butt. One ally called this episode a “self-inflicted f**king nightmare” (viaThe Hill):

A lack of transparency about her health has turned what might have been a non-issue into a hugely problematic storyline for Hillary Clinton that could plague the Democratic presidential nominee into November, say allies and confidants.One ally described the string of events that culminated in Clinton leaving a Sept. 11 memorial early as a “self-inflicted f—ing nightmare.”

Clinton’s campaign sought to deal with the fallout on Monday of damaging video that showed Clinton’s knees buckling and Secret Service agents helping her into a van. The campaign later revealed that the Democratic nominee was suffering from pneumonia.

[…]

A second ally said Clinton and her team probably wanted to withhold that she’d been diagnosed with pneumonia on Friday so that conservatives who have been raising questions about her health wouldn’t have ammunition.

Yet in withholding the information and allowing Clinton to go forward with an event that she was not able to handle, they made the situation worse.

Not ideal…

But, that’s what you get.

She could have easily told the media on Friday that she had pneumonia and rested a few days.

Instead, she lied. And got caught.

What else is new?

In her daughter’s apartment she may be able to receive a shot of methamphetamine which she could not get in the hospital. The meth would temporarily boost her to the performance level exhibited on the sidewalk after.

The fatal wound was administered with the passage of the 17th Amendment and magnified by the 19th.

But if they can get her into office she is totally controllable by the Brotherhood and Obama.

Anyone who swallows the pneumonia story is hopeless.

Pneumonia is an acute diagnosis that doesn’t cover the chronic problems. Alinsky rules for radicals playbook


Exactly.

Pneumonia can be caused by many different things including viral OR bacterial infection, breathing or ingesting chemicals or foreign matter, fungus, or aspirating saliva or gastro intestinal fluids.

Since they did not seem to be concerned with infectious agents, Hillary possibly had pneumonia caused by complications from some other serious medical condition she had

This is the reason for the cover up

The cause of her pneumonia is probably a dead give away for other more serious medical problems Hillary wants to keep secret.

It really would have been easy for the. Clinton campaign to simply say Hillary had a bad cold and would be out for a few days

Those are definitely bad amendments but I wouldn’t call them “fatal.” We’re suffering death from a thousand cuts. But you’re right, viz. just because an American is breathing should not give them the right to vote.

Changing the way we vote for senator set us on the inevitable path to the unitary state. The states were once represented in the Congress AS STATES and protected their Constitutional prerogatives.

Increasing prosperity guaranteed that that unitary government would become by degrees totalitarian.

Giving women the vote changed the nature of the electorate fatally. My wife convinced me of this one. Women will tend to vote for security and as marriage breaks down that gets intense. They vote for a husband. Liberty is much less important to women in the aggregate.

Three amendments, the 16th, 17th, and 19, were the Wilsonian Progressive Amendments. They have got what he wanted. It just took a century.
