If I were Team Clinton, I'd get her in front of the press ASAP on this. They can't ignore this, because her health is becoming a genuine question with mounting points of concern, even without the conspiracy crazies jumping onto it and turning the dial up to 11.
There's the fainting episode that resulted in a concussion she sustained two years ago.
There's the consistent cough that her team has begun blaming on pollen but, let's be real, that excuse is bullshit and the fact that that's the story even made me a little worried. Anyone following this election knows that The Cough has been a problem since the Nevada caucuses. That was February. It's likely nothing (damn Hill, just spit the damn phlegm out and drink some tea with honey before you get on stage), but it sure ain't helping.
And now yet another fainting episode. This one with video.
People in here can cry "Diablos!" all you want, but this is how narratives work. Every attack that has been effective at bringing down Hillary's numbers are the attacks the play into an existing narrative about her. It's why anything she does that can be perceived as being secretive damages her more than it would any other politician. These ongoing issues with her health, though likely nothing, are providing real hooks for the conspiracy nuts to latch onto.
The Clinton Campaign would be wise to take this seriously, because pretty soon it won't just be the nuts asking questions.
