I don’t think it came out of her pant leg. Looks like something fell and hit her calf on the way down. Probably a button/buckle/lapel pin got knocked off one the people carrying her.
Looked like a control chip to me.
That’s the way it’s done in politics. Just because it didn’t resonate with you, doesn’t mean the Archie Bunkers didn’t sit up and take notice. These two politicians are like two 2nd graders playing in a sandbox. Each is trying to get all the sand in their corner instead of discussing the condition of, and improving, the sandbox.
…and the people with Money… they’re just ‘prizes’ that we find in the sand…
Agree. The knots some people twist themselves into, and the ‘humor’ as a way of putting their fingers in their ears and singing la-la-la-la. It’s really something.
If she’d announced she was ill when she found out, the ‘usual suspects’ would have exploded in glee. But as you say, the MSM would not have a several day 24hr story about her covering it up. That aspect is really pretty simple IMO. She took a calculated risk, influenced by her obsessive tendency to keep things hidden (even Axelrod pointed out that obvious flaw of hers), that it would clear up fast enough to not have to disclose it at all. She lost, that bet.
And there’s the illness itself. It doesn’t mean the person is a lot less likely to be able to carry out the duties of Pres the next 4/8 yrs, but it is knocking her off the trail coming into the climatic phase of the election, and it’s an unknown whether it will slow her down or its effects be in any visible say by the time of the debates. It’s not ‘routine’ to get pneumonia in a situation where you’d be better off (professionally) working your butt off night and day, just isn’t. It’s a setback, even w/o creating a cover up story.
And Democrats complaining about the media, overall, that’s really loser stuff IMHO. It’s bad enough when Republicans do it, but at least there’s the fact that the large majority of reporters at non-Fox TV and major papers are Democratic votes (‘trying to be fair’). OTOH Republicans know this going in and it’s still loser stuff for them to complain about it tactically, but more ridiculous when Democrats do. The media likes a scandal. Everybody knows it going in.
Did you watch the video or did you shield your eyes like when other religious fundamentalists are taught biology?
LOL. Do you struggle this hard with all of Alex Jones’s conspiracies, or just this one? Are you still trying to figure out whether jet fuel can melt steel beams?
I disagree. To me it looks like it came out of the leg. I’d go for one of those pesky inner-pant buckles. Button and lapel pin? No, the object was heavier than that.
What are you talking about? I’m talking about the video where a metal object falls out of her pant leg.
A pen out of a purse or pocket maybe. The one little flash I could see before the noise was above the bottom of her pant leg.
Eta:actually watching the video with the close up does look like it came out of her pantleg. I bet a pen fell through a hole in her pocket.
This is my my favorite thread of all time. The palpable discomfort. It’s like watching a Christopher Guest film.
There’s been discussion that the lady with Clinton was either a nurse or doctor.
I hadn’t noticed. But it’s very clear in photos the lady is wearing a dark blue uniform.
Helping her into the van

Kinda heavy for a pen. Did you hear the sound? The hole in the pocket angle is a good point though.
Seriously, it’s like watching a replay in a football game to see whether or not the punter’s helmet is regulation, all the while everyone’s ignoring the opposing team’s horse-collar tackle, chop blocks and the fact that their inside linebacker-- the one with “White Power Bill” tattoed on his neck-- just took a shit on the referee’s face.
But, oh! Heavens to murgatroyd! Let’s focus our efforts on figuring out if something fell out of Hillary’s pants! Or whether or not she was being helped or carried!
I’ve seen the video. You see what you want to see. If you zoom 10x on any iPhone video, you can see all kinds of artifacts. Maybe something fell out, maybe it is nothing. Maybe it was metal. Maybe it wasn’t. The only reason you care or even know of the video is Alex Jones.
Jeez, give her some privacy, will ya? It’s obviously her vibrator and her stumble was obviously an orgasm.
I’ll speculate that at some point there will be an ACTUAL scandal that no one will believe because of how often we keep hearing “WOLF!”

And? She’s 69 and on an exhausting campaign trail that would tire much younger peoplel. I’d fully expect there to be a doctor or a nurse in her entourage. You’re delusional if you think Trump doesn’t also have a doctor or nurse as part of his entourage as well.
A naughty nurse!
