Katrina Pierson, whose command of the facts has been seriously called into question in recent weeks, appeared on MSNBC to answer questions about why the Trump campaign is going down this road, even as Clinton’s doctors say she’s healthy and that the conspiracy theories are bogus.
Pierson presented no medical evidence that Clinton suffers from dysphasia, which is a type of brain damage that impairs one’s ability to speak or understand language, notes The Hill.
During the interview, Pierson was asked by MSNBC’s Kristen Welker about the conspiracy theory element of the Trump campaign concerning Clinton’s health.
Bardack’s statement concluded by saying that Clinton is “in excellent health and fit to serve as President of the United States”. Pierson said, alluding to a number of debunked reports about Clinton’s failing health.
In part to quash speculation about Clinton’s health, the campaign released a summary of her medical records last summer. Rather than offering a smoothing-over platitude as most careful political operatives might, Pierson doubled down and said that Clinton suffers from Dysphasia, a serious brain disease.
This week, the Republican nominee for president shifted gears to launch his attacks on Hillary Clinton’s health – alleging she doesn’t have the “mental and physical stamina” to be president.
“Welker told Pierson that the press conference issue is being tracked by the news media, and added: “[Clinton] hasn’t taken a lot of time off the campaign trail.

According to Pierson, Clinton’s condition stems from a concussion she suffered nearly two year ago.
