Huma has it.  
But not in her throat.  
Question: how did Hillary get Huma’s chlamydia in her throat?

Right wing logic!

All politicians get discreet speedball injections while on stage. It’s just the way it is nowadays -like cyclists. You can’t compete with the other politicians if you don’t do it too.

I’m anxiously awaiting your credentials, and then I will take your word for stroke as a valid diagnoses. With a disclaimer that you shouldn’t attempt to diagnose someone without examining them first.

How many strokes or brain bleeds have you seen? I’ve seen several in my over 8 years as an EMT. Symptoms vary person to person, but I’ve never come across a stroke/CVA patient who fit into your description. Not as easily as your trying to pigeonhole her, anyway.

FWIW I heard Clinton on the radio a fair amount on POTUS yesterday as they played both her press conference and her talk in Charlotte … when I turned on and heard the latter in progress I didn’t recognize it as her at first … she sounded charismatic and comfortable and was connecting with the crowd almost in an early Oprah feel. I thought it was some local popular person introducing her.

The press conference was also good in real time.

Ummmmm…Putin has been getting a Trumphummer so if you drop Putin’s depends and there’s agent orange around Vlad’s dick, there’s probably throat chlamydia on Donny… Michael Douglas style.
