Hillary and the Debate Rules (She struck out)
The American Thinker ^ | September 24, 2016 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 09/24/2016 9:18:26 AM PDT by onyx



Against expectations, the Presidential Debate Commission has adopted rules that do not favor Hillary Clinton.  She will have to stand the entire 90 minutes.  With no stool.  And no commercial breaks.  Her campaign’s request that she have a booster to make her appear close in height to Donald Trump was turned down.

She struck out.

An hour and a half under bright lights, facing pure stress, gravity pressing her body onto her legs and feet, staying balanced the whole time.

Worrying about a seizure.

Look for one or more bathroom breaks.  Then look for claims she took meds when she went to the little girls' room.

How could this have happened to Our Gal Hill? Lifezette told us a week ago:

This feels like the kind of bogus expectations to expect from the clintons. She wins by standing comfortably for the duration.

One of those “knee stools” might be a possibility.

It’s a test for Donald. The trick for him is to show himself humane and chivalrous without backing down an inch on what actually matters.

Some strobe lighting will set of her crazy eye rolling. Is she going to have to leave off her blue sunglasses?

Don't forget the earpiece.

With the Clintons, you never know.

Depends on the mood she’s in on Monday.

If she suffers a medical event during the debate, it will be clear that she has lied about her health, just like she has lied about everything else. It would be devastating for her: both too frail AND too dishonest to be president.

By contrast Trump will look even more honest in comparison and be perceived as someone who means what he says.

We’re setting things up so that if she stands up straight for 90 minutes she wins the debate.

Oh man, it’s going to be absolutely crazy if she passes out. Can you imagine what would happen? Like Trump running over cradling her head, and THAT photo would be on the headlines the next day? STILL I bet the MSM would twist it, “How could THEY be so CRUEL to her!” meaning how could Trump make her stand for 90 minutes!

I agree
Her handlers probably already had her do trial runs while they got her meds adjusted

She will be botoxed up and have a great hair do and appropriate garb

The devices is probably very difficult to see in normal lighting conditions and straight on viewing angles. This photo just happened to catch the stage lights reflecting on it. Nobody’s ear is so clean that it reflects light like this!

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL!!!!! Holy cow can you imagine her tipping over like that just when the camera is on her face? Or like my brother was saying, just when they ask her about her emails....”Oh my they tortured her!” Actually she could die if she fell and cracked her head! Maybe she will appear on stage wearing a helmet! LOL!

Someone needs to check the special podium step for vibration signals.

A friend of mine was saying the other day, in that video of her screeching “WHY AM I NOT AHEAD 50 POINTS!” that her eyes appeared a little too blue, so he was wondering if she was wearing blue tinted contact lenses to prevent seizures.

Frankly even if I was Trump I think I’d have pity on the physical Hillary and propose that the debate be a seated debate.

*************

Do you think for a moment that if it were the other way around that Hillary would be that considerate of Trump? No way. She would hammer way at his ‘frailty’ without mercy.
