If only Hillary Clinton could turn back the clock a few days…
Talk about unfortunate timing, the day after last week’s participation in NBC News’ “Commander-In-Chief Forum,” the Democratic presidential nominee posted an image on social media, along with this caption: “The most important quality in a president and Commander-in-Chief is steadiness — an absolute, rock solid steadiness.”

Of course, just three days later, Clinton would become ill while attending a 9/11 anniversary event in New York and need to be held up to prevent her from collapsing — she was captured on video being supported by bodyguards and helped into a van just as her wobbly legs gave out on her.
Given the absurdity of the media’s tip-toeing around Clinton’s health issues, social media users couldn’t hold back on mocking the ill-timed tweet from the candidate.
Here’s a sampling of responses from Twitter:
