National Enquirer published a clickbait photo-spread with captions here, but the summary is in the blockquotes:
Hillary has Multiple Sclerosis, and has had three strokes.
She is believed to wear bulky pantsuits to hide that she has to wear adult diapers.
She had good energy early in the campaign but now she is dazed, exhausted, and confused all the time.
Huma sleeps in her bedroom with her, in case there is a medical emergency.
No word on whether the emergency she has in mind is, as Muslims are prone to call it, a “sexual emergency,” or whether Huma genuinely fears that if she isn’t there Hillary may be found dead one day.
The strokes make sense, since she is on Coumadin. What is not clear is if she has had a stroke while on Coumadin, which could indicate a potentially imminent expiration date that could pop at any moment. Presumably she went on Coumadin after the first stroke, so unless the MRI after that stroke revealed evidence of prior strokes, she may have a real problem. You can only pump that Coumadin so high before you begin urinating your blood out. If she did go on Coumadin, and had two subsequent strokes, that would be huge because it wouldn’t be containing the problem. And she will have to fly, putting her at risk of DVT.
The Multiple Sclerosis is probably mostly a preemptive cover, and this is probably a trial balloon. It is a good diagnosis that explains symptoms of neurological abnormality, and whose layman’s terms don’t include the phrase “batshit crazy” or “grossly defective.” This may mean Clinton’s campaign is resigned to her illness becoming public, and they are laying the groundwork to cover up the bad with something somewhat milder. Trump’s rhetorical hitmen should immediately move to make the case MS would make her totally unfit, due to debility.
The Multiple Sclerosis may not be entirely a cover, though. I suspect her seizures, lock-ups, and fall were all part of a much worse neurological defect beyond the MS, but the MS may be real. If so, having an auto-immune disease that can flare up unexpectedly cannot be helpful to an amygdala-addled neurotic who can be triggered into a seizure merely with noise.
Interestingly, MS, in females especially, is associated with anxiety issues, which seem to be indicators of predisposition to MS:
Anxiety disorders are quite common, and frequently overlooked, in patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). This is often due to the difficulty differentiating anxiety from personality correlates or reactive tendencies in patients with neurologic disease.
Multiple Sclerosis has even been misdiagnosed as Acute Anxiety Disorder:
It was determined that I was experiencing a panic attack. The diagnosis was acute anxiety disorder. As the episodes increased and with no help in sight I was forced to shut down my training studio.
I was a single parent of two young girls, alone and afraid I was losing my mind. I chose to return to the East Coast where at least I had my family.
Over the next ten years, each time I went to a doctor, I was prescribed anti-anxiety medications, which more often than not remained untouched. No one knew I had multiple sclerosis.
My guess is it is a feedback loop. Anxiety indicates, in some, a predisposition to Multiple Sclerosis, but being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis isn’t going to reduce the patient’s already elevated levels of anxiety. Add in brain damage from trauma, like a fall and some strokes, to a naturally narcissistic personality, and before long you have startle epilepsy mixed with a naturally explosive rage syndrome.
Then add in a once in a lifetime chance to fulfill a historic life dream, that presents itself just as all of these medical problems hit, and an opposing candidate who is a walking, talking amygdala trigger, and you have all the makings of a joint physical/mental breakdown.
This incredible turn of events of late, between Trump’s timing, Hillary as the nominee, and all just as the population goes K, almost has the feel of a divine intervention on behalf of the nation.
