Is Hillary Clinton really sick, or is she just allergic to questions from the press?
That’s essentially the question Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway asked on Twitter after Hillary struggled with coughing fits throughout her Labor Day public appearances.
Must be allergic to media. Finally spent a minute w/ them. Hillary Has A Nearly 2 Minute Long Coughing Fit [VIDEO] https://t.co/G0rKPfAjmr

Clinton’s rough day actually started off at a rally in Cleveland, Ohio with running mate Tim Kaine when an early coughing fit caused her to drink some water and take a throat lozenge. She later joked that she was allergic to Donald Trump.
Later, on her campaign plane, Clinton tried to hold a ‘gaggle’ with the press, but this got interrupted by coughing as well.
Clinton made statements about her new book & Russia/hacking, and then took 7 questions from reporters before excusing herself bc of a cough.

Once she returned, Hillary explained it away by calling it “seasonal allergies,” as if this were an unusual event for her (it’s not).
"One thing you know from my doctor letter is I have seasonal allergies," Clinton joked after returning to the gaggle following her cough

When all was said and done, Hillary actually ended up answering about 12 questions from the press, one of which was:
Does Clinton think the conspiracy theories about her health are sexist? "Hmmm," Clinton replied with a smile. "Interesting…"

Needless to say, the Twitterverse has been more than a little active on ‘sick Hillary’s’ latest coughing fits:
All the journalists on that plane earlier should apologize for aggravating Hillary's press allergy. There's a REASON she keeps her distance!
