Fox News: "Donald Trump Is A Young 70, And Mrs. Clinton Is A Relatively Old 68, 69"

https://mediamatters.org/video/2016/09/15/foxs-monica-crowley-overall-perception-donald-trump-young-70-and-mrs-clinton-relatively-old-68-69/213101

... it's only appropriate that voters raise the questions and have those questions honestly answered. There's a difference between biological age and physiological age. Mrs. Clinton is going to be 69-years-old in a couple of weeks. Donald Trump just turned 70. But the overall perception is that Donald Trump is a young 70, and Mrs. Clinton is a relatively old 68, 69, in terms of physiology. I think those questions are legitimiate...


--------------

"Some people", non-doctors, are thinking that Clinton is physiologically in worse shape than Trump despite him eating fast-food and her being one year younger.

And this fact-free opinion of these non-experts means that the issue is a legitimate topic.

Yet more dribble from Fox news. I never ever watch that channel. They lie worse than Trump.

I'm sure they thought the same thing about R reagan, and look at what happened: he slept through Cabinet meetings, napped every afternoon, etc.

I have my doubts trump is sleeping only 3 hours a night without prescription amphetamines.

He is really over weight and puffy.

That over size coat and long tie does not hide it..

Notice he only wears dark suits.
