First off, more medical analysis from the “Doctor”:
Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul said on Wednesday that Hillary Clinton should be examined for health problems other than the pneumonia her doctor said she was diagnosed with earlier this month.
Speaking to host Tom Roten of 800 WVHU radio, Paul said that the episode should be concerning even for Clinton’s family members.
“I think it is troubling when we look at the reports from Clinton not just the potential health problems that she has but also sort of the dissembling, the dishonesty about it,” Paul said. “And when they trotted out that diagnosis of pneumonia a couple days after the fact, America just didn’t buy it because they assume the Clintons will probably lie to you anyway. And I think it is concerning really even if you’re her family member and you’re very concerned about her health that maybe they need to look deeper into finding an answer.”
Paul’s been pushing this BS narrative this week and but he can’t even name the other health problems Clinton faces:
Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY)assured pro-Trump media outlet Breitbart that Hillary Clinton has “significant health problems” though he was unable to explain exactly what those problems were.
“I think she has some significant health problems–I don’t know what they are,” he said.
Paul was skeptical of Clinton’s pneumonia diagnosis, which her campaign made public last week after she apparently collapsed at a 9/11 memorial ceremony. “Her losing consciousness, there, which by all appearances she did lose consciousness, is not something commonly associated with pneumonia,” Paul, a practicing eye doctor, said.
But that’s not even the dumbest thing he said today:
Roten lamented that race relations seemed to have gotten “worse since we’ve twice elected a black U.S. president,” and Paul agreed.
“You know, I think we try to make everything about race and so we wind up with a lot of racial tension because of that,” Paul said.
The libertarian conservative said police had to “do a better job at figuring out when they use deadly force,” saying that black Americans were far more likely than whites to be “on the receiving end of violence.”
But he agreed with Roten — and struck a tone similar to Kathy Miller, who resigned from her post as Donald Trump campaign chair for an Ohio county afterblaming Obama for racism.
“It certainly hasn’t gotten better,” Paul said. “You would think we would have gotten beyond race, in a way, and in many ways it seems to have gotten worse.”
