YOU JUST SAID THAT SHE SHOULD RELEASE HER MEDICAL RECORDS. WHICH IS A SERIOUS THING.

AND 10 MINUTES LATER YOU WALK IT BACK.

What the...? I didn't walk it back, the way the campaign reaffirms hypohidrosis is simply by releasing her medical records or just a statement from her physician saying she overheated because of hypohidrosis.

Gezus, calm down.

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.”

 

[nature boy]

I said the same thing. The best thing for them to do is not say anything or just say they are glad she's better. That's the best way to play this.

Going ALL in right now would only serve to placate the base but show the rest of the electorate you lack sympathy. Outside of his crazy ass base. I don't think anyone is rooting for either one to die be seriously ill.

I don't think Trump can help himself, and he's never cared about expanding his base.

He might wait for a rally, but he's going to use this to his benefit.

 

[Nazgul_Hunter]

I have often fainted with a blood rush to the head (particularly when getting up fast) and I have buckled and looked as bad as Hillary did on that video. I remember one time I fell like I was a ragdoll.

That said, the HRC campaign definitely needs to talk about this because they risk it defining her if they keep quite, as the usual Clinton instinct would be

What the...? I didn't walk it back, the way the campaign reaffirms hypohidrosis is simply by releasing her medical records or just a statement from her physician saying she overheated because of hypohidrosis.

Gezus, calm down.

Oh interesting, so the no-sweat turns into a disadvantage because she doesn't have a proper way to release body heat?

SHE DOESN'T SWEAT

SHE IS A REPITLLIAN

 

[Owzers]

Guys GUYS!

There is literally shit circulating on twitter from Trump supporters that the woman who walked out of Chelsea's apartment was a body double.

FUCK. I think they've blown this whole charade wide open.

not fair, i was joking about that in the OT thread.

 

[Trouble]

SHE DOESN'T SWEAT

[Slizeezyc]

Wait, apparently Hillary does indeed have a condition that can lead to heat-exhaustion hot flashes:

She doesn't sweat. She suffers from Hypohidrosis.



Here's a Buzzfeed interview where she jokes about having the condition, saying she's actually a robot built in Palo Alto, lol.

So yeah, we can officially stop worrying. The campaign will probably just say it's this, previously known condition Hillary has and will probably joke about it.

Here's another article about it, from Yahoo News.

Man, this is so weird to me, didn't even think it was possible to not be able to sweat. Maybe Republicans can say she she can only cool down by panting like the dog she is?

 

[Boke1879]

Yea at a rally he'll just do what he's been doing, but I think in the short term I think his staffers told him not to do or say shit right now or they took his phones.

Right now he's gotta play it cool.

 

[Plumbob]

Hillary Clinton: "It's true, I sweat the details..."
Politifact: HALF TRUE

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

So you're telling me there is a legit, medical condition that she has and is documented that would explain her having a potential heat related medical episode?

And that this isn't going to become the end of the Earth as we know it?

No way, I am shocked, I am truly shocked that this entire episode lasted like six hours.

 

[Diablos]

Clinton's physician has already released a statement about her health.

But anyway, no. Full medical records are private. If she's on some medication, people will scrutinize the hell out of it. President Clinton takes Ability, is she mentally qualified to be president? Guarantee you that's a bad idea.

When was this released?

 

[metalslimer]

I can't even imagine what it would be like not to sweat.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Does Hillary wear deodorant if she doesn't sweat?

 

[TheLostBigBoss]

Hillary Clinton does not sweat

She has a major leg up in a zombie/rage virus outbreak due to the fact she is not going to be easily tracked by scent!

You mean Abilify*. And yes, I think it actually would warrant discussion if the president was taking an antipsychotic. Not to disqualify them, mind you, but because people should know.

 

[8 X 11 Printer Paper]

During the debates she should wear one of those beer hats (with water or iced tea or hot sauce) and just make loud slurping noises throughout.

 

[shem935]

SHE DOESN'T SWEAT

SHE IS A REPITLLIAN

FUCK. REPTILE CONFIRMED!!!!

I can't even imagine what it would be like not to sweat.

Probably helps in debates though. Of the many reasons I couldn't ever be a politician is that I swear like a faucet under the slighted mental pressure.

 

[Angry Grimace]

Dudes. This health shit is freaking me out. I get that its probably nothing, but Fox News et al are going to have a field day with this, and it only serves to reinforce the trump = strong narrative that he is pushing. Ugh. It just looks so bad.

Listen I'm not saying this is a disaster, but having a 4-minute coughing fit followed by literally fainting on camera and falling into a getaway car while the nutjobs on the right are predicting imminent death is just the worst possible thing. Ok, I'm saying it's a disaster.

I make fun of diablos basically every single time I post but the health of your candidate is basically 2nd only to 'do i trust them with the nuclear button?' on the Most Important Things About Your Candidate.

That the brietbart set have their own conspiracies and this fulfills it is basically the worst possible thing. It's the equivalent of catching Obama on camera shouting "allahu akbar!"

I dunno. If this doesn't shake your confidence in Hillary -- even if it's just from 100% to 95% -- I don't believe you're being honest.

Confidence in her as a leader? I can 100% say it didn't shake that.

And if there ever was a problem she's chosen an excellent VP who everyone loves and could take over immediately

Don't know what to think since every day is something new in this year of madness.

 

[Sianos]

I just don't see anyone being swayed by this who wasn't already swayed by DIGITAL MAIL and FOUNDATION. And similarly, I feel like anyone who would be swayed by this would have already been swayed.

Feels like the negatives are so baked in for both candidates at this point that I don't expect a severe change in the aggregate in either direction barring an absolute meltdown at the debates.

 

[Dominican Power]

Joy Reid is even more gdlk on twitter.

 

[PantherLotus]

Watch the damn video! They are literally dragging her so far the tops of her feet are behind her, like a goddamn Weekend At Bernies.

yes that is because when you faint you do not have control of your muscles

Huh. My wife has anhydrosis. Like they put her in an oven and she doesn't sweat. She can easily overheat in 70º weather. If Clinton has a similar condition she is fucking tough as hell.

 

[Boke1879]

Watch the damn video! They are literally dragging her so far the tops of her feet are behind her, like a goddamn Weekend At Bernies.

Yea she fainted and the video doesn't look good. Wish it didn't happen, But that's what happens when a person faints.

She came out 2 hours later looking fine, and she has a healthy issue they may have aided in this. Let's see what tomorrow brings.

[pigeon]

Guys, I appreciate the fanon effort here, but there is no documentation for her having hypohydrosis. There are just a bunch of anecdotes that she doesn't sweat.

 

[Iolo]

At least now with the emails issue fading, Chris Cillizza has another issue to fixate on.

 

[Spoiled Milk]

yes that is because when you faint you do not have control of your muscles

Fucking lol

Anyway, the youngins in here don't remember that this exact same situation happened to George H. W. Bush. In fact, it was even worse! He projectile vomited onto the Japanese Prime Minister and then fainted and collapsed.

Imagine the coverage today if Hillary Clinton, on 9/11, had projectile vomited onto the crowd due to having a Taco Bell Extreme Burrito with extra hellfire hotsauce from her purse and then fell off the stage and onto the crowd. What would the headlines be?

It's too late. We've finally uncovered the truth. She's a shapeshifting reptillian with a body double

Fucking lol

There are stories about her sweat condition from years ago and it makes complete sense.

It doesn't shake my confidence at all and I wouldn't even be surprised to see attacks on the issue backfire.
Keep calm, friends.
