“[Because] there’s no way that she said this”.

Several hours later, Clinton’s physician said the Democratic presidential nominee was diagnosed on Friday with pneumonia. “She was put on antibiotics, and advised to rest and modify her schedule”, Bardack said. The doctor said the incident Sunday was a result of dehydration and overheating and that the candidate is “re-hydrated and recovering nicely”. As she exited the apartment shortly before noon, Clinton said, “I’m feeling great”.

Hillary Clinton waves Sunday as she leaves the home of her daughter Chelsea Clinton in New York City.

“We removed our earlier poll on what people perceive are the reasons for Clinton’s medical issues as the possibilities are too speculative”, the organisation wrote.

It has now been revealed by her doctor she was diagnosed with pneumonia Friday.

Hillary Clinton is heading into the roughest patch of her campaign against Donald Trump.

She noted that in the “other basket” there “are people who feel that the government has let them down, the economy has let them down, nobody cares about them, nobody worries about what happens to their lives and their futures, and they’re just desperate for change”. “It’s a attractive day in NY”.

While Clinton has released more information than Trump, Caplan said neither candidate has offered voters a sufficient record. Despite Trump’s numerous missteps, the White House race remains close and the public continues to view Clinton has dishonest and untrustworthy. I don’t know what’s going on.

The press detail that accompanies Clinton on the campaign train was given no explanation for her disappearance from where she had been standing with a bunch of other NY political types – so began a series of tweets that the candidate had disappeared.

However, a video posted on Twitter by a person who was at the memorial showed Clinton, surrounded by her staff and Secret Service agents, stumble and her legs buckle as she tried to get into her auto.

Democratic Representative Joe Crowley of NY, a Clinton supporter who attended the event, told Reuters that it was “incredibly, stiflingly hot” during the ceremony.

Clinton was afflicted by an uncontrollable cough for several minutes which forced her to stop speaking during a rally in Cleveland. “Every time I think about Trump, I get allergic”. Two Secret Service agents then held on to her arms and helped her get into the vehicle.

They said they found a blood clot on the brain and Clinton temporarily suffered from double vision.

Dr. Lisa Bardack, an internist who has been Clinton’s personal doctor since 2001, released a two-page letter in July 2015 that said Clinton was in “excellent physical condition and fit to serve as president of the United States”.

In December 2013, the former first lady had to be rushed to New York’s Presbyterian Hospital after a medical scare following a fainting spell and concussion. Clinton later said she regretted applying that description to “half” of Trump’s backers, but stuck by her assertion that the GOP nominee has given a platform to “hateful views and voices”.

Neither Trump nor Clinton spoke at the event, in keeping with the solemn nature of the annual remembrance of the deadliest terror attack on American soil.

Clinton has been in the news before for serious health issues. She can make her doctors available for briefings. Trump has also been under pressure to release detailed information on his health and medical history.
