2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumAlso, bc venting is good, I think they slipped something in her drink last summer
I don't think it was pneumonia at all.
Now that I've seen what the NYC FBI was up to....how Rudy was always smug, and "we got something up our sleeve" I would not put it past them. They were both at that event.
I don't give a rat's ass if it's polite for me to say or not either.

(12,904 posts)Yet another 9/11 attack on our country. Why wouldn't they...Putin does it all the time, right? With any luck, a toxicology screening was done.
And old Rudy has been very quiet lately.

I merely suggested we take another look at this, given what we know about Putin, and how he operates.

The man who discovered CTE thinks Hillary Clinton may have been poisoned
By Cindy Boren September 12
Bennet Omalu, the forensic pathologist who has made the NFL so uncomfortable with his discovery of chronic traumatic encephalopathy in the brains of deceased players, suggests that Hillary Clintons campaign be checked for possible poisons after her collapse Sunday in New York.
Omalu, whose story was famously told in the movie Concussion, made the suggestion on Twitter, writing that he advised campaign officials to perform toxicologic analysis of Ms. Clintons blood.

I must advice the Clinton campaign to perform toxicologic analysis of Ms. Clinton's blood. It is possible she is being poisoned.

But this is Omalu, whose credentials and tenacity are well known. He wasnt giving up on Twitter, adding that his reasoning is that he does not trust Russian President Vladimir Putin or Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee who has expressed admiration for Putin.

Video of Clintons departure seemed to show her buckling and stumbling as she got into her van. (Thomas Johnson/The Washington Post)
Putin, as The Washington Post reported, was implicated by a British inquiry in January in the poisoning death of Alexander Litvinenko, a former KGB operative, in London in 2006. The Posts Griff Witte and Michael Birnbaum wrote at the time:
Although the inquiry stops short of conclusively blaming Putin noting the opaque nature of Kremlin politics it finds that there is strong circumstantial evidence that the Russian State was responsible for Mr. Litvinenkos death. And citing the high-stakes nature of an operation to assassinate a former KGB officer on British soil, it finds that the operation would probably not have gone ahead without Putins direct approval.

(22,527 posts)Are perfectly capable of knowing the difference between poison and pneumonia. Alex jones would be proud of this thread.
LaydeeBug
(10,291 posts)so every counter weight helps.
mopinko
(71,817 posts)she had been dx'd several days before the event.
pneumonia is easy to definitively dx'd.
this is silly.
HoneyBadger
(2,297 posts)Yeah, that makes so much sense
Warren DeMontague
(80,708 posts)Wouldnt it have made more sense to mess with her then?
chimpymustgo
(12,774 posts)They threw EVERYTHING at her. I wouldn't make the leap that they were trying to kill her, but just seeing Hillary nearly collapse into a puddle was jarring and took the air out of her campaign - till she got back up, and then Comey came in for the kill.
Warren DeMontague
(80,708 posts)No way I can dispute such an ironclad case.
LaydeeBug
(10,291 posts)if you stop thinking we are not on your side.
Also, I hear that Donald Trump fantasizes about sleeping with his daughter. I am *positive* Rudy Guiliani fucked his cousin. I don't *care* if it's rude.
Early and often.
Warren DeMontague
(80,708 posts)I wasn't thinking anything about "we" or "you" or "sides". I was thinking that it's a bit of a stretch to suggest HRC was poisoned, and trying to figure the logistics of "them" setting it up in such a way as not just not to get caught (which would be a biggie) but also to time it perfectly so that she would slip or otherwise look slightly incapacitated at the 9-11 memorial, upon which there would be a perfectly calibrated polling response because the public would go "aha, see, she is sick".
See, to me, occam's razor dictates that it's actually a bit simpler to imagine that she really WAS sick, like her campaign said.
LaydeeBug
(10,291 posts)especially considering Russian involvement a stretch.
But, hey, keep bringing your pen to a gun fight. That way, after the massacre, you can write a strongly worded letter shaping your story and honing your message.

(37,428 posts)She fears that Trump will do her in, but will let her live if she's a good girl and shuts up?
That's quite a stretch without any evidence.
LaydeeBug
(10,291 posts)but they didn't plan anything.
They *wouldn't*
And even if they would, saying so is just *really* inappropriate.
We need to lick or wounds.
Hone our message.
It was just a coiky-dink that DU was hacked on the same day.
Nothing to see here.
Nothing at all.
Orsino
(37,428 posts)...can hack DU any day they want, 9/11 or not.
The one thing does not make the other any more plausible.
LaydeeBug
(10,291 posts)There is nothing to see here.
It was a coincidence.
Orsino
(37,428 posts)We are not that important.

You have as much proof that we aren't important than I do that we are.
Orsino
(37,428 posts)Connecting one of tthe DU hacks to an imagined cause of Clinton's illness is eccentric.
It can just be pneumonia. I nearly lost a stepfather to summer pneumonia. He was only a few years older than Clinton, and not on the go twenty hours a day. He was in ICU for days.
LaydeeBug
(10,291 posts)My father DIED from pneumonia, and I STILL wouldn't put it passed them.
Orsino
(37,428 posts)The past election cycle shows that there are many, many things They'll do to win.
They didn't need to poison Hillary Clinton literally.
