It's just more dumb conspiracy theory bs. They're trying to "fit" all the conspiracies together on pol right now. This is just going to end up being a way to try to discredit her - the real Hillary died and her body double continued the race, so the supposedly victorious President Clinton is an ineligible fraud.

Hillary Clinton said she did not disclose her pneumonia diagnosis earlier because she "didn't think it was going to be that big a deal" and called on the press to hold Donald Trump to the "same standard" of transparency.

Seriously, WTF is wrong with her?

So, like, I've been wondering all day, why is it a big deal?
What's wrong with you?
You cough up phlegm balls one week then get diagnosed with pneumonia the next and you go about your business thinking it's no big deal? Come on man.
I'm perfectly healthy thank you.
I agree.Clinton got sick. Due to the narrative on the Right that she is secretly dying, she felt it was in her best interest to try and hide it. In the end she was wrong because it hit her harder than she expected. If you want somebody to point fingers at here, point them at the Right for their stupid conspiracies shaming a sick person into hiding that they have pneumonia.
If Trump had been the one to faint this thread would be even bigger, don't kid yourselves.
Fact is we all dismissed the idea she was sick as a conspiracy and it turns out she was.
Not exactly at death's door like some wanted to believe but still sick.

My mom worked everyday she had pneumonia. It's shitty, but unfortunately working while sick is a part of American culture.You cough up phlegm balls one week then get diagnosed with pneumonia the next and you go about your business thinking it's no big deal? Come on man..

Oh please. If she had come out and said "I have pneumonia I'm taking a few days off the trail" the story would turn to 'can she not HANDLE the Presidential race? Is this Presidential??!? Roosevelt had Polio and he still managed!'
There's no scenario here that wouldnt get spun against her.

I'm not going to disagree with that. She said she was concerned with her opposition using it against her (which happened anyways). That being said pneumonia can be very dangerous so to say she thought it "wasn't a big deal" tells me either she doesn't care about herself or perhaps lacks knowledge on how dangerous pneumonia can be.
Silver lining if you're a Clinton supporter: if others also have the same illness, it'll strengthen Clintons claim its pneumonia and not something more serious.
Or knows that her version was mild.
Mild pneumonia is a thing. She saw a doctor.
I think it's less that she thought it wasn't a big deal and more to do with knowing she really didn't have a choice. If she had missed the 9/11 memorial service she would have been absolutely crucified. Trump would have a field day and the media would play along. It was damned is you do, damned if you don't.Sure but the Dr. (at least according to that report) also told her to rest for 5 days. She ignored the Dr.'s advice and continued on thinking it wasn't a big deal.

I guess it depends on what kind of benefits your employer affords you. If I got sick like that I would get a Dr.'s note and get paid while I recover at home. There's just no need to push yourself like that.

doctors also tell all of their patients to eat healthy and exercise everyday
Resting when you have pneumonia and a general advice of "eat healthy and exercise everyday" is the same? lol
Not that the reaction wasn't understandable in regards to the 9/11 events
Gonna go out on a limb here and assume Clinton isn't struggling for rent.some people wouldnt make rent if they stayed home even one day

I got scared for a second at the thought that Drumpf would run uncontested...
Glad this was nothing.
She got sick and got scared of the reaction. It's like a child in trouble - we've all been one of those - the attempts to hide something are usually a lot worse than whatever silly thing we've done likely out of no real badness.
But she's a grown woman. Shes been trying to push through to show how strong and healthy she is - even the way she left that apartment. In the end her attempt to keep favour has backfired.
The people not getting the attention. It's not because she has pneumonia it's because she collapsed after a number of days of apparent illness; ran away then tried to pretend nothing happened. It's a story about someone who clearly is too easy to put on a false face in public.
What has now happened is people are still asking questions on her health. Things like her phone call with CNN are showing improvements; she needs to embrace the press more and just be a bit more level with people.
I'm not the most articulate person, but I can't see the upside in her disclosing that she had pneumonia. In more idealistic circumstances I could see her taking time off to convalesce, but these aren't ordinary times. Wasn't FDR always filmed from the chest up? Or more to the point, was he ever filmed sitting in his wheelchair?
I remember that attorney general Janet Reno rarely ever had her hand shown on camera after being diagnosed with Parkinson's.
I live in Texas. I just found out the governor is in a wheelchair.Jeremy Beadle used to try and hide his withered hand when on camera too. Lots of people didn't even know unless you pointed it out, even after years of being on TV.
In retrospect, I agree. I assume they calculated the risk, and hoped they could power through it without any one noticing. Sadly enough it didn't work out all that well, and it played straight into the narrative that they were trying to avoid. This whole "Is she sick"? Just asking questions" - "No, she's healthy" dynamic created an atmosphere where Clinton can't be ill any more without it being interpreted as a sign of weakness. These super-human standards she is being held up to are unreasonable, and can fuck off.In a way, she probably screwed up an opportunity to "humanize herself." Had she stated/leaked info that she was already sick and still went to the 9/11 ceremony anyway, she would have received a lot of sympathy (especially if she collapsed). Happens in sports all the time.
“I welcome any man or woman who believes they possess the strength to shatter this femur to join me here on stage and try, though they will most certainly fail,” said Clinton as she proudly held her leg bone high above her head. “Let it be known that my femur is more robust than a thousand oxen and as unbreakable as my determination to lead this nation as its first female president.”
Sure but the Dr. (at least according to that report) also told her to rest for 5 days. She ignored the Dr.'s advice and continued on thinking it wasn't a big deal.
Working in a school, I can say that Americans are indoctrinated into this system at an early age. Perfect attendance awards are lauded as much as straight A's. Sad really.Late, but did you know the culture in America actually looks down on people for staying home when they are sick? If you can't 'push through it' your a whimp looking to fake sick for a day off. I'm completely serious.
It doesn't matter that she's not effected by pay and such. It's such an ingrained part of our culture that even rich people tend to not use their vacation days because it's frowned upon.
