was that in the other fortune cookie?

Only from the fortune cookies you're working from.

[Jack Knave]

and where did you get your M.D.?

You should buy better quality fortune cookies, not those cheap ones you're using at the moment, because that's just awful.

What is? That you are making medical diagnoses and have no expertise? Not exactly a fortune cookie, just a simple fact

I know but we were talking about Hilary and whereas he's pretty fit for his age she's coughing and spluttering and near death's door. Her vice President is the grim Reaper!

She's not near death's door and frankly, Trump doesn't look too fit to me. He's practically brain dead as it is.

I think it is Trump's doctor who does his medical, not me.

And yet you think Hillary's doctor is wrong to the extent that you claim expertise on that but accept Trump's doctor. To judge that yph would needs a medical qualification which you admit you do not have. Do you want to try and get to a logical position!

Well, getting into that car she looked like she was due for her next shot of virgin's blood!!!

She had a fainting fit some years ago, and it is not only me who is flagging up her health problems, many commentators in the US are asking questions about this.

and they all have M.D.s? You have accepted Trump's doctor because they are a doctor, but want to ignore Hillary's doctor because of some commentators and a an alleged fainting fit which without any medical qualification you have connected to this. Which effectively justifies Floo's idea that Trump is mad because she thinks that.

You do play this stupid black and white game. There is a middle area where reasonable speculation can take place. If that is too hard for you then I suggest you just eat your fortune cookies and leave it at that.

except you are the one claiming expertise here. You can speculate, you didn't. Tell me about your  knowledge of the fainting for. Tell me about why you claim knowledge about Hillary and Trump's doctor expertise.

Do you actually follow the news? The doctors have been in the media replying to the clamours for these details.

'the doctors'? That doesn't even make sense in Englush. You think think Trump's doctor is right, and yet challenge Hillary's. Get back to me when ypy stop being a hypocrite.

Still playing your black and white games, I see! There's the issue of past condition and hence doubts - i.e. non black and white thinking.

[jeremyp]

She was ill. Have you never been ill?

[jeremyp]

and they all have M.D.s? You have accepted Trump's doctor because they are a doctor

Wrong, Jack Knave accepts Trump's doctor because Trump's doctor does not contradict Jack Knave. He is quite happy to accept the opinions of experts as long as they confirm his bias.

Watching her lurch into the car looked like someone being helped home after a night at the Pig and Whistle.

So? I still can't see why this puts her general health into question.

When a woman in her late sixties is falling about in public, she's either drunk, or ill.  And if she's ill, then it is a serious matter as a Presidential candidate.

I think your misogyny is showing.

She had pneumonia. Lots of people get pneumonia and fully recover.

I love women, even Theresa May.  However, pneumonia is serious, and especially in older people.  And if it is/was pneumonia, I find it hard to believe she was up and about in a couple of hours or so, and is allegedly completely fit now.

when did you get your medical degree?

Same place as you and Jeremy.  It seems common sense (remember that?) that an elderly woman falling, literally, ill in public is a serious medical matter;  and especially so for someone in a highly pressured situation as she is in.  You seem remarkably unsympathetic to the possible medical repercussions to an elderly person.  I have first-hand experience of this, and doctors take such situations extremely seriously.  Whatever her actual condition is, it does not bode well for the future, when she faces one of the most demanding jobs in the world, if she is not 100% fit.

. Her doctor says she is fit. So you think she is lying?
