To think that overheating does not mean she is in anyway unhealthy or unfit. New York can be very warm this time of year and it's only early September.

So many on Twitter questioning her health and whether that makes her good enough to be president. Tbh I would choose a brain dead Clinton over trump anyday. Good she's expected to be president not an Olympic athlete.

In any nation with a free vote, isn't this mostly about perception? Because of HC's endless past lies voters may perceive she's lying now ... if she has another public episode they might perceive it's curtains for her candidacy ... and if she spends less time in view (surely not an option at this stage?) they'll perceive something's being hidden again

FDR lived in a time when there was far less media scrutiny, but those who now rely so much on image can hardly complain when that image gets distorted through their own choices and actions

Oh and by the way - where's Claig?? Grin

I just love the comment about Clinton's past lies, umm, I'm fairly sure she's more honest than her opponent. There's a pretty long list on Trump.

smallfox2002 · 12/09/2016 11:11

And he's pretty crass, bragging that your building was the tallest in lower Manhattan just hours after 9/11 cements that.

I think we need a [very depressing situation, it's all going to end badly] emoticon. That would sum it up for me.

Hillary has used her brain injury as a reason why she can't recall evidence over the emails/Bengazi trouble.

smallfox2002 · 12/09/2016 11:18

What excuse does Trump have?

Puzzledandpissedoff · 12/09/2016 11:20

I imagine we all know that, smallfox - after all the vast majority of politicians lie when it suits, and I doubt there's room even on the entire internet to include every single deceit Sad

Quite rightly there have been countless threads about the horror which is Trump, but this particular thread was about Clinton ...

*Today 01:44 Feminazi

Her staff seemed ready for her collapse, as if it was regular*

Not true. Her staff are there to protect her. They are constantly on high alert. Saving her from a fall is easy compared to protecting her from a deranged person in the crowd, or a bullet.

Mimsy - a small nuclear mushroom cloud??

A BLIND mystic with a "staggering accuracy rate" predicted the 44th President of the United States would be the first black leader the country ever voted into office. Baba Vanga predicted Barack Obama would be the last president of the US.

Good old baba Vanga. She also predicted the Syria kerfuffle.
Who knows?

WinchesterWoman · 12/09/2016 13:15

Chardonnay - I wish I hadn't googled. I now feel the need to prepare an apocalypse rucksack.

megletthesecond · 12/09/2016 13:39

puzz I was wondering where Claig was. I hope he's not ill, maybe he and HC can convalesce together.

wasonthelist · 12/09/2016 13:46

Disgusted by the way BBC World At One has just reported this. They might as well have said "Hilary Clinton is worthless and is totally fucked"

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 12/09/2016 13:47

A friend of mine worked in Sofia years ago and kept talking about her, I think she went to see her of something.

She had a book about her, sadly or maybe not we cold not read it.

MimsyPimsy · 12/09/2016 13:47

Kitten Maybe those preppers aren't so mad.

Puzzledandpissedoff · 12/09/2016 13:48

Is Claig a "he" then? My mistake - for no good reason I always thought they were a "she" Blush

Not that it matters of course ...

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 12/09/2016 13:53

The Germans have been told to stock up.

derxa · 12/09/2016 13:54

I was wondering where Claig was. I hope he's not ill, claig keeps saying she's not a man. I love her pronouncements about 'the people' and 'the elites' She sounds a bit like Baba Vanga Grin

wasonthelist · 12/09/2016 13:56

The Germans have been told to stock up.

Eh? Which Germans? And by whom?

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 12/09/2016 13:58

What do you mean which Germans?

There is only one Germany now.
Told by the government, stock up supplies for 10 days.

WinchesterWoman · 12/09/2016 14:13

Yes they have chard. I wondered about that. Wtf.

WinchesterWoman · 12/09/2016 14:14

I already bought fire extinguishers for every room in the house.

The Germans have updated their civil defence advice, that they've always had.

Providing every drama llama in the Western world a headline with which they can run round screaming with their hands in the air.

Even though the actual German report says that while it's good to be prepared, "an attack on German territory, requiring conventional defence of the nation, is unlikely".

BBC report that includes translations of parts of that German link www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-37155060

WinchesterWoman · 12/09/2016 16:14

As opposed to saying 'everybody panic now?' Grin

To channel M R-D - 'they would say that wouldn't they'
