Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid called out Donald Trump for his full-figured physique and love of fast food Tuesday while criticizing what he sees as a double standard in the media's coverage of the presidential candidates' health.
"You folks have magnified the problem," Reid told reporters regarding Hillary Clinton's recent bout with pneumonia. "She's off the campaign trail for a few days. She probably needed the rest anyway."
Hillary's pneumonia went viral — in an Internet sense — after she had to leave a 9/11 memorial ceremony early and had to be helped into a van before departing. The incident fed pre-existing theories, based on rumor and conjecture, that the former secretary of State was battling an undisclosed illness. Reid pointed out pneumonia is curable and wondered why the media wasn't asking more questions about Trump's medical records.
"Take a look at this character that's running for president," Reid said of Trump. "He complains about her health? What does he do? He's 70-years-old. He's not slim and trim. He brags about eating fast food every day. Look at his health a little bit."
Reid said Trump's medical records are "non-existent." Trump did release a letter — which the Clinton team has mocked — from his personal physician last December. Dr. Harold Bornstein wrote, "If elected, Mr. Trump, I can state unequivocally, will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency." He has since admitted to NBC that he wouldn't normally use such broad language to describe a patient's health.
"You have all been unfair to Hillary," Reid continued. "She submitted a multiple-page report from a doctor — a good doctor — talking about what medicine she's on."

She's hardly campaigned at all. So, dehydration and too much talking? Uh huh. Anyone with a brain can figure this out. But half the country doesnt have a brain so what can you say?
With Bill's extracurricular activities, is it possible she has HIV/AIDS?

You state that as if they have been intimate.
They do have a child.
And with the proper regimen, HIV can be kept under control for decades.
Maybe her levels have changed since getting older.

If she is taking blood thinners, one of the side effects can be early onset dementia, too.
Vascular diseases can cause edema.
So many possibilities.

A friend of mine thinks she has a body double. Too many discrepancies. He said to check the jawline. They aren't the same all the time. The one coming out of Chelsie's apartment. Figures they smuggled the real Hillary out the back. I haven't looked myself, but plan to later.

I did not believe it when I heard it. But if it isn't true she has something funky going on with her weight. One day she looks to be 40lbs overweight, and the next maybe an extra 10lbs.

The media is also now trying to unseal Donald and Ivana's divorce records. New York seals private divorce requests on request, and Donald and Ivana have each filed briefs to block them being unsealed.

When the other side, and I consider the media the other side, behaves as if they have to turn every stone over then they truly are desperate. I find it amusing.

So her book was released last week. NYT best seller list came out today, she sold 2500 copies, so not on the best seller list. First week a book is out, statistically it sells 1/3 of the amount it will sell in total. First week Sara Palin's book came out it sold 485K copies. She can get but 100 people or so to attend "rallies" doesn't even do much public speaking, but yet the polls have her in a statistical heat? No way in hell.
