We are at a high point in the annals of media manipulation when it comes to the vital question of Hillary Clinton’s health. The stakes could not be higher fro Hillary’s point of view. She has waited her turn, deferring to the voters and the superior status of African Americans in the hierarchy of victims in 2008, and now the small matter of collapsing in public threatens to ruin her image.

It will take a lot of suggestion to overcome the chilling sight of her collapsing in the arms of assistants as she entered an SUV, all the more vivid because the media were kept at bay and only an amateur with a smart phone was there to capture to incident.

Same thing they said this time, she stumbled. Either that or Trump pushed her too hard, and he ought to be ashamed.

They're still dogging Matt Lauer for being a big meanie to Hillary and not taking Trump down.
