“I just hope she gets well and gets back on the trail, and we’ll be seeing her at the debate”, Trump said in a phone interview with Fox News.

Clinton’s husband, former U.S. President Bill Clinton, told PBS earlier that she got “severely dehydrated” and felt faint “on more than one occasion” over the years, usually because she kept on working despite feeling ill. It is something that has occurred a few times over the course of my life.
The Democratic presidential candidate said in an interview on CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360” that she felt dizzy and “did lose my balance”, while waiting for the motorcade. On Sunday, Clinton left Ground Zero around 9:30 a.m. ET because she was feeling unwell.
Hillary Clinton is off the campaign trail and recovering from pneumonia as controversy swirls around her health.
“I just thought I could keep going forward and power through it and obviously that didn’t work out so well”.
“Secretary Clinton has been experiencing a cough related to allergies”, Dr. Lisa R. Bardack said in a statement. The latest poll by Quinnipiac University found her with a 5 percentage point edge over Republican Donald Trump in Pennsylvania.
Her campaign has said it will release more details about her medical history later this week in an effort to demonstrate she isn’t suffering greater health problems.
Mr Trump also said he had a physical last week and will release detailed health information when he gets the results, which are expected in coming days. For months, Trump’s Republican presidential campaign has been driving the narrative that Democratic opponent Clinton is too fragile and lacks the stamina to occupy the White House. She was initially said to be “overheated”, but then about eight hours later came word that she had pneumonia and, in fact, had been diagnosed as such two days earlier. “It is brutal and you have to be on all the time, all the time and it takes a toll”, said Goldstein.
BRIAN FALLON, Clinton campaign Press Secretary: We’re going to be releasing that to further put to rest any lingering concerns about what you saw yesterday. Naturally, because this election is a garbage fire, politicians and media outlets alike immediately jumped on this juicy opportunity to tear the candidate’s health apart, demanding she release her health records to prove she’s not going to drop dead the minute she is (potentially) inaugurated.
After the incident, Clinton’s campaign canceled her three-day West Coast swing, including stops in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
However, Trump, who shared even less information about his own medical details than Clinton did, was also bogged down in controversy surrounding his brief medical report that stated that Trump would be the “healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency”.
