The Health Tell
Dilbert ^ | 4/29/2016 | Scott Adams

Posted on 04/29/2016 9:40:14 PM PDT by GilGil

I give Clinton a 50% chance of making it to November with sufficiently good health to be considered a viable president. Judging from her performance on the campaign trail, she is managing her health effectively to get the job done. But I would think most people who run for president end up sacrificing their health in some measure. The big question is how much buffer she has left.

Trump has been circling like a shark around the stamina issue with Hillary. Half the time she looks like she has slept on a waffle iron. Adams is correct she never looks the same twice. You see Fiorina and she always looks the same and so do the other candidates but Hillary looks like she has multiple personalities and gives the impression she is totally tanked up on something.

I have a personal friend who spent an evening in close proximity to Hildabeast. According to him, the reason she appears to be "tanked up on something" is because she's tanked up on something.

Also, she has really, really deep circles under her eyes, like she hasn’t slept for days. Pretty bad when make-up can’t cover at all.

If you read the comments at the end of the article the first reason she looks different all the time is that she is an alcoholic. The second reason is that she is taking a lot of pain killers.

Well, what about the coughing? What’s wrong with her?

There is no way Hillary can have 2 rallies a day and multiple T.V. interviews like Trump does. She will be forced into making brief, orchestrated appearances on a weekly basis at most, and releasing pre-recorded ‘interviews’ to the media at pre-planned intervals. The contrast will be glaring to voters. If she even dares to try to keep up with Trump on the campaign trail, her health will give out.

So you assume alcoholism and abusing pain killers to start. Then you pile on the coughing indicating heart problems. You have a total mess there.

Hillary never ever looks people in the eye. She is always staring out in empty space as if she is holding on for dear live.

Compare that to Trump who always looks squarely in the camera.

Hillary looks like she is ready to disintegrate.

Say what you will, but what Hillary is, is sheer “Will To Power”.

If the race goes to who wants it the most, as so many contests do, she’s got it.
“It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog’.

Trump can lose, walk away laughing and still be worth 8 billion and be lining up super hot wife #4. Hillary is finished, kaput, gone, on the dustbin of history if she doesn’t win.

‘Will To Power’ is never pretty, be it on the left or the right.

You are correct. Trump will bury her in attacks that she simply will not be able to keep up with.

We all know (or are) people who routinely got high on drugs or booze daily well into their 30s. Most of us, when “real life” finally intruded, backed it off substantially. I get the impression both Clintons are still amongst the “get high daily” group. At their age, that’s not exactly wise.

that’s exactly what her 2016 “campaign” consists of NOW and has since its inception.

It really is pathetic isn’t it? The Dem establishment is basically running a figure-head for President. It’s all illusion, and they know they’ll be pulling the strings. Hillary is more than happy to play the figurehead and let them run things since she has neither the competency or stamina to do it herself. Reminds me a little of that movie ‘Weekend at Bernies’. Hillary isn’t dead but is just as incapacitated, and to the people pulling her strings, she’s just a prop.

Aside from whatever else may be wrong with Hillary’s health, she’s known to be hypothyroidic, and I strongly suspect her hypothyroidism is poorly controlled, which would account for the variability of her energy. Too much and she appears to manic. Too little and she can barely drag her azz from bed to the loo at night.

Yes, that’s true. When people have a chance to contrast her with Trump’s accessability in a more direct way, it should do some serious damage to whatever credibility she still has.

Well ... You’re the doctor.

But if you want me to guess I’d say odds on Esophageal Varices.

Yes, but not of medicine, you know.

Thank you for the suggestion.

I will take it into consideration and issue my final proclamation at some future date ... cough, cough.

Re: “Most people who run for president end up sacrificing their health in some measure.”

Not true in recent years.

Ford, Carter, Reagan, George H. W. Bush, and Bob Dole all lived past 90.

McCain is 80, even after years of torture and prison. Nixon lived to be 81, even after three political catastrophes.

George W. Bush and Romney are just shy of 70 and appear to be in excellent health.

I agree that Bill Clinton does not look healthy, and I think he is still under 70.
