I'm telling you people, he's gonna win. I really, really hope I'm wrong. I know the electoral math says otherwise but all it will take is one HC fainting, one HC mistake during a debate. Be scared, be very scared. Edit: it's pneumonia. That's no joke: http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/explainer/2006/12/pneumonia_vs_the_elderly.htmlI don't know how big of a deal it is.
it's a big deal. Why? Optics. Trump will hammer on this over and over. He is already creating doubt around her health and vitality. This looks bad and feeds perfectly in to the narrative he is creating. Is it likely that she's absolutely fine and just wasn't feeling well? Yes. But optics matter. Trump is no fool, especially when it comes to marketing.
