You yourself even admit to more fatigue. Fatigue without addressing it = heat exhaustion. I've seen it happen all the damn time with people in 80 degreeish weather.

No you haven't.

Planets lining up for fucking Trump aren't they?

Getting sick of all the bullshit and how it's playing out

Omg I am ULTRA embarrassed for her. Holy cringe batman, holy fuck LOL

Improbable. OSHA standards allow for continuous work at this temperature and the heat stress index only indicates that physical activity will be more fatiguing than usual, but heat exhaustion isn't cautioned against until 91F and higher (and only with prolonged exposure combined with physical activity).

I looked it up and 80F is 26C. I barely function at those temperatures, I sweat like a pig and if I have to wear more than a tanktop and shorts I feel like I'm going to collapse. I Hillary couldn't deal with it I'm not surprised.

 

[CartridgeBlower]

To people who are saying it might have been dehydration, wouldn't she have been given water by her aides?

 

[Ekai]

You're misreading what I said. I wear my work clothes for work reasons through the year as a necessity. I'm not wearing them during my personal time and torturing myself.

You sure seemed to say you wore it outside in your personal time? But okay. I may have misread it. Sorry about that.

No you haven't.

You aren't me but thanks for your input.

None of the FUD from the last few weeks is moving the needle. It's all just a lot of noise without any substance. Hillary is still sitting pretty comfortably when you look at electoral projections. The sky isn't falling, don't worry.

Dehydration doesn't just disappear when you sip some water.

Hil clearly burning that candle at both ends on a Saturday night. Boggle game at the community center must have kept her up past 10.

 

[streetsahead123]

I mean, worst case scenario, Dems get Tim Kaine as president. Still a thousand times better than a Trump/Pence presidency.

Seriously. The offices I've worked in...if the thermostat had been set to 80f degrees people would have been calling in sick every day. And that's without physical activity.

 

[sturgboski]

I seriously don't get these people. Unless you are literally turning 18 this year and pay attention to politics for the first time in your life, you pretty much have the choice between 2 majorly different options. And then you go "well, I don't know yet." Just... how?

If you had a dozen parties to chose from and some are pretty similar, I can get how you need to make up your mind still. But in American politics? It's so strange to me.

But Clinton and Trump are equally bad. I'm sure that's the reassuring statement they tell themselves after hearing years of tearing down Clinton and conversely years of a cult of personality in Trump. If one truly can't see how damaging Trump is to the country and the world at large then I dont know what one can tell these folks.

She is hiding medical equipment under her clothes.

She should consider installing some fans and cooling packs like they have in mascot costumes. Or maybe just go full Robocop and come out in a bulletproof climate controlled suit made of metal.

 

[Capella]

To people who are saying it might have been dehydration, wouldn't she have been given water by her aides?

I've been dehydrated before and they usually take you to the hospital for that because like another poster said, you need more than water.

Right, that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying wouldn't they have been hydrating her continually throughout the event. Wouldn't they have been ahead of this possibility occurring, especially if it was hot.

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

Well it seems it has been noted prior (in 2012 and other times) that she suffers from Hypohidrosis.

Hypohidrosis is diminished sweating in response to appropriate stimuli. While hyperhidrosis is a socially troubling but benign condition, hypohidrosis can lead to hyperthermia, heat exhaustion, heat stroke and potentially death.[1] An extreme case of hypohydrosis in which there is a complete absence of sweating and the skin is dry is termed anhidrosis.

What is she made of? Looking at her rolling both ankless, sometimes at the same time, and not toppling is mind boggling to me.

 

[OrangeGrayBlue]

Dehydration doesn't just disappear when you sip some water.

And it's not something you'd necessarily recognize immediately. The symptoms would still probably require that a person (especially a presidential candidate) leave the venue and get checked out by a medical professional.

But all of this crap is just unbelievable, this lends to some bullshit going down the line.

The fucks over at the GOP will spew so much horse shit over nothing it's not even funny.

Kind of makes the weather debate irrelevant.

I said during work breaks I'm out in the summer during the heat and go for walks in such clothing. Nothing said about non-work days and weekends.

I wish I had your ability to ascertain someones health by seeing a video.

Something was clearly wrong with Bush in 92, cept he is still alive and well some twenty plus years later.

 

[Joeytj]

Apparently, is hypohidrosis. Hillary literally doesn't sweat, which leads to an increase in possible heat strokes or hot-flashes:

Clinton’s apparent imperviousness to heat has been noticed and documented before. The writer of a 2012 feature in Conde Nast Traveler pointed it out in detail after spending nine days traveling with Clinton through China, Bangladesh, and India in early May.

“She does not sweat. Literally. She does not even glow,” wrote Kevin Doyle. “No matter how high the heat, not a drop nor a drip nor a bead nor so much as the faintest glisten can be detected anywhere about her person.”

She jokes in an interview to BuzzFeed from last year that the weirdest fact about her is that she doesn't sweat. She later jokes that it is because she's a robot.

Hillary doesn't need a medical condition to suddenly feel weak because of an hour and a half in the sun, but this is probably what the campaign will go with and will turn it into a fun fact.

EDIT: My aunt's former boyfriend had a similar condition. He literally sweated only on one side of his body, lol.

Gotcha. Thank you for the clarification.

 

[Alucrid]

okay so i can have a beer with hillary, but i can sweat with donald. man, the choice is almost too difficult to make.

 

[VendettaRed07]

She also has hypothyroidism as well if I remember correctly. Which probably is also a factor

 

[jstripes]

Heat exhaustion after sitting in 80 degree weather in a pantsuit for two hours is totally plausible IMO.

Someone earlier in the thread said 80 was a "nice spring day".

Maybe where he lives.

80 is about 27°C, which for me would be very unpleasant in a full suit. Especially when you have the crowd, heat radiating from all the roads and concrete, sun, and humidity added in.

Sure, I'm not going to faint, but I'm also not 68 and working an exhausting campaign.

 

[Octavianus]

Wow a video of a lady feeling ill, call the press.

Hopefully she makes a speedy recovery. And it's nothing serious.

Dude she's leaning against a post and literally falling down as they put her in the vehicle. Unless she had too much to drink, there's something wrong.

True. But if there was already discussion about Hillary's health before this, imagine how it will be from now on.

 

[Fourth Stooge]

History of blood clots? That implies more than one.

There's no implication of "more than one." It's a simple statement of fact. Clots. In her legs and in her head.

She's taking the blood thinner Coumadin/Warfarin to help. It's a managed treatment and the dosages can change over time. If someone has a history of blood clots and they faint, they should go to the emergency room immediately. There's a reason people take blood thinners for extended periods. Blood clots.

 

[Arrogant Bastard]

Like a heat stroke maybe? Cause it has happened to me too. I'm 35 and have gotten too hot and passed clean the fuck out, it doesn't mean I have a medical condition.
