It’s a [weird idea](http://www.bizpacreview.com/2016/09/12/hillarys-body-double-trends-previously-limp-clinton-spryly-pops-daughters-apartment-389655) going around the web but you have to admit the Hillary who fainted and had to be carried to her car at the 9/11 event and the Hilary who emerged later do look like 2 different people. Different clothes, jewelry, lips, thinner and where is her usual secret service detail? I seriously doubt it but it is interesting and not outside the realm of possibilities. ---

No, she doesn’t, and yes, it is outside of the realm of possibility. ---

It’s not a “weird idea”-it’s a nasty rumor without any foundation, spread by desperate people without scruples. ---

They might have had different clothes (shockingly, I’m wearing different clothes than I was 4 hours ago!), but the rest is nonsense. Or she’s a lizard-robot from space. ---

Who cares if she does. I saw a movie once, (_[Dave,](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_(film))_ I think), where the President’s body double did an outstanding job. Everything will be okay either way. ---

In Dave, the body double did a better job than the president did. I say, vote yes for H2! Or Hiillary (if you want to use Star Wars EU naming conventions). ---

She looked like a different person when she emerged because she wasn’t fainting at the time. ---

If there _are_ body double(s), I’ll bet Bill has checked them out thoroughly.😃 ---

A fuzzy washed out photograph doesn’t show as many wrinkles as a more clear one. Also a pan suit that goes in at the waist makes you look slimmer than one that hangs straight down. Color me unimpressed. Also it isn’t like people only saw her from afar, she talked with people and posed for pictures. So unless her body double that has been specially trained to match her voice patterns, and which she keeps around under wraps for just such an occasion as collapsing in public, it seems very unlikely. And on the other hand if she is the sort of person who has a body double that has been specially trained to match her voice patterns, and which she keeps around under wraps for just such an occasion as collapsing in public she would just the sort of ready for everything detail oriented woman I would want in the white house. ---
