So, Are We Going With SniffleGate or SniffGhazi?

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2016/09/27/trump-says-no-sniffles-mic-bad/91158780/

“No sniffles, no. You know, the mic was very bad. Maybe it was good enough to hear breathing," Trump told Fox & Friends Tuesday morning. "There was no sniffles. I have no allergies. No cold. Every once in a while, but no cold.”

At a different point in the interview he speculated that maybe he had been given a bad mic on purpose.

You want Hillary to spend another 11 hours being grilled by Republicans grasping at straws?
