If presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton slips into a coughing fit or any other medical crisis during Monday's high-stakes debate, she will have to power through, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned!
"There are no commercial breaks," a commission source explains. "Period."
Debate moderator Lester Holt does not have the authority to cut away from the stage during the epic 90-minute showdown. And microphone audio for either of the candidates is not to be manipulated.
Clinton has experienced severe coughing episodes throughout the election year. During a Labor Day campaign stop she suffered a 4-minute choking marathon.
Monday's throwdown could top out at 100 million viewers, making it the biggest political event in history.
EDITOR'S NOTE: The presidential debate commission settled an early flashpoint when Clinton demanded a step-stool at the podium to add height to her 5'4" frame. Campaign Chairman John Podesta expressed concern that Hillary would be dwarfed by 6'2" Trump. The request was quickly rejected. The commission is allowing for a custom-made podium, which will accommodate the difference in stature.
If I were The Donald, I would have a platform behind my podium that is 18 inches high and would have a custom-made podium that would make me look larger but normal. I would force Hillary to build a freaking set of steps that she must mount to get to her platform which will then be about 36 inches off the floor of the stage. She will look ridiculous mounting up and the podium will dwarf her on the long shots diminishing her stature. And, if she falls off the platform, she will do a Humpty-Dumpty.
The homepage of Drudge said, “Clinton demands...”
That’s what I searched under.
If Hillary gets one, Trump should get one.
When she collapses she can blame it on stepping off of the stool accidentally.
I think all of this talk is setting the bar too low. Something tells me she will be jut fine and thus exceed expectations. That will be the story as the media covers the debate. Take it to the bank.
Clinton wants to debate from the ladies tee.

So the Oop Pa Looma needs a stool? Probably will lose her balance.
Oomp Pa Looppa...? LOL
I had one in my condo. They can be run remotely, too! I can see it now, illary rising into the air as she jerks and wobbles ...
Not even a bathroom break like in the Bernie debates?
She can’t make it through 90 minutes without a break.
She most certainly is that!!!
She won’t be able to do it. She will malfunction, or be so tranked that her entire appearance will be a malfunction.
She can. The issue is the durability of her meds. Take too many or take too few.
I think they are affected by events as at 9/11.
If she does, she’ll be tranked and braced as in that horrible “why aren’t I” moment of logical and grammatical horror.
If she says “my doctor says”, she’s get sympathy and probably accommodation.
So hers will be short and fat?
You said exactly what I’m thinking. She needs a lot of reasons to blame her problems on.
