Clinton was diagnosed with pneumonia on Friday but chose to continue on the trail. She was diagnosed with the lung infection on Friday. I’m just telling the truth.

Clinton’s campaign on Monday (12 September) announced it would release further medical records in the coming days after being criticised for withholding information regarding her health.
“The remainder of her complete physical exam was normal and she is in excellent mental condition”, she said. “I don’t know, it had 54 likes”. “I was supposed to rest five days – that’s what they told me on Friday – and I didn’t follow that very wise advice”, she said. I felt dizzy and I did lose my balance for a minute. Once I could cool off. “Once I had some water, I immediately started feeling better”.
“And the other who isn’t fit in any way shape or form to represent this country overseas or to be its commander in chief”, Mr Obama said at campaign rally in Philadelphia.
Both Hillary and Trump, 70, said they meant to release more of their medical details in the coming days, as their campaigns gear up for the November election. Still, he said that Obama remains confident Clinton has the strength to carry out the demands of the presidency.
As for specifics, “My voters don’t care and the public doesn’t care”, he said.
For 24 hours, Donald Trump had been pretty hands-off in his reaction to Hillary Clinton falling ill at a 9/11 memorial on Sunday morning – first silence, then a relatively low-key Monday morning reaction. “This is not me just going through the motions here”.
Clinton has expressed regret for saying “half” but also said she would not back down from calling out “racist rhetoric” on the campaign trail.
The problem for Trump’s campaign is that in these situations, he often just can’t help himself.
“I was so angry – that I didn’t think up the line, ‘basket of deplorables.’ I love that line!” the Fox News host and commentator said Tuesday on TODAY.
The president said the media have let Trump get away with misleading comments that would have led to a candidate’s undoing in past election seasons.
“The short-term turbulence will be more about the handling of this than the substance”, David Axelrod, a former political adviser to Obama, told Reuters. Other states that could go red or blue include Florida, North Carolina, Arizona, Nevada, Georgia and New Hampshire, many of which show Trump and Clinton in a tight race.
Reid, who is 76 and retiring this year after 30 years in the Senate, predicted that regardless of the negative attention Clinton is getting on the health issue, she will win the White House.
At her Chappaqua home on Tuesday, where a small group of reporters stood watch, she received six floral deliveries throughout the day.
