But she was damned if she didn't show up or damned if she did today.... and that is the real problem here. No matter what she did today... there would still be countless news articles and threads  ... attacking her choice. It isn't about her hiding anything with regards to her health... it's more a matter of unrealistic expectations and judgement from the masses.
And yes...this isn't an issue that the presidency should be decided on...let's all get back to those. |
She would have been hung drawn and quartered by some Mokka had she not attended. You are so right there.
I give her now even more credit for trying to do 'duty' and attend the memorial service and also other work needed to be done.
Pneumonia is curable and this may explain how she has been in recent weeks to with this coming on.
I hope she takes time to adequately rest and get over this bout of pneumonia, then get back to the campaign.
Yes, she is running for president but she is also a human being and humans do get ill sometimes, no matter who they are or what status they are either..
Good luck to her and I hope she is fully recovered soon.
