38. It's not a big deal....

Sun Sep 11, 2016, 11:45 AM

Sep 2016

Large crowd.
Hot and Humid.
Standing still.
Formal attire, not shorts and a tank top to stay cool.
Extremely emotional event and highly personal since she was senator to NY at the time of 9/11.
Campaigning up to 18 hours a day.

My 100% healthy son has been prone to overheating like this since he was quite young. You get out of the sun/heat into air conditioning/cool place and rest and you are as good as new.

My ex husband was in the Navy. Every time they had inspections in their dress blues (even in the winter in New England) someone would overheat and collapse from locking their knees. Never failed.

Supposedly other dignitaries left early because of the humidity. randome Sep 2016 #45

A.P. also reports Trump left early as well. NutmegYankee Sep 2016 #50

MSNBC is apparently reporting this. randome Sep 2016 #53

No, she definitely had something. MadBadger Sep 2016 #9

Not in a massive crowd and standing still for over an hour. NoGoodNamesLeft Sep 2016 #21

Yeah, but that's not going to fly. At all. Joe the Revelator Sep 2016 #25

This isn't good if it's true. It will become THE issue for the media from now on. jalan48 Sep 2016 #16

Really??!?!?!! THIS will be the issue from now on??!?!! AgadorSparticus Sep 2016 #63

Really. Think "emails". It's how the media and the Republicans work. jalan48 Sep 2016 #67

They can try and force a nonissue. But the debate is coming & this nonissue will soon be forgotten AgadorSparticus Sep 2016 #69

Watch the video of the event. You think it will be a non-issue over the next two months? jalan48 Sep 2016 #71

It was crowded and hot. To be expected. So yes, I think it will be a nonissue. AgadorSparticus Sep 2016 #72

We shall see-I wish it hadn't happened. jalan48 Sep 2016 #74

Me too. But heat exhaustion is common. It is not a big deal. AgadorSparticus Sep 2016 #75

Thanks for the post. Once you start feeling woozy you know you need to hydrate. spiderpig Sep 2016 #77

Exactly! That is what they do. That is what they have always done. AgadorSparticus Sep 2016 #79

Well, I'd vote for Hillary even if she had six months to live before I'd vote for Trump book_worm Sep 2016 #19

Good point. Chemisse Sep 2016 #76

Good Lord...she overheated. I have done that many times and had to leave where I was. michaz Sep 2016 #26

This fits an already established narrative. To pretend it isn't going to have big legs.... Joe the Revelator Sep 2016 #30

I didn't say it won't have legs. I said michaz Sep 2016 #33

At some point the question needs to become, what is wrong with her? Joe the Revelator Sep 2016 #35

This is a breaking news alert popping up on news apps right now Democat Sep 2016 #27

The media will harp on this for the rest of the campaign. Skoods Sep 2016 #29

You sound like a Trump fan Democat Sep 2016 #31

No they won't. History will repeat itself. They forget when the media needs a new outrage AgadorSparticus Sep 2016 #83
