So, either Hillary stays home and recovers from her illness and gets slandered for disregarding the 9/11 victims, or she puts up and goes to the memorial and is criticized for... being sick.

God.  This is why I don't watch the news.

Or she could have done what most other candidates do when they're feeling very ill - listen to doctor's advice, stay home and tell the press up front that she is under the weather.  Not after she stumbles at a high profile event - but on Friday, when the diagnosis came.  Cruz stayed off the campaign trail for a day or two during the primaries because he was ill, and nothing came of it because his campaign was honest about it.

The problem for the Clintons is that they seem to always have to hide the truth from people, making the public perceive them as liars when the truth comes out.  This is just another example of it.  It makes people think Hillary Clinton is hiding more about her health than she is letting on.

If she did that then that would have added more fuel to the health scandal conspiracy.

"Oh see! She's dying; that's why she had to stay home even though the 9/11 memorial was taking place. Or maybe she doesn't really care about the victims!"

There's no way out.

More fuel than being caught on video collapsing while stumbling into a van?  I don't think so.  If she stays home and tells the truth up front, there's no viral video showing a physically weak woman stumbling out of the 9/11 memorial service.  There's just someone who stayed away from the ceremony because she had pneumonia or is feeling under the weather or whatever the Clinton campaign tells the press.  This being on video adds even more fuel to the health rumors because there is now video evidence.

It usually helps to get ahead of bad news, not behind it, like the Clintons seem to always do.  Claiming all is well and Hillary is completely healthy when she is not doesn't help things for her at all.

He doesn't have any real proposals, just rants. The reason his Twitter has been dark is because he's been given a heavy dosage of tranquilizers and anti-anxiety medications.

The reason Trump's Twitter is dark is that it is the 15th anniversary of 9/11 and both candidates agreed not to campaign today out of respect.
