SEPTEMBER TWENTY-SIXTH

His name is Zdenek Gazda.  He’s from a small Moravian village called Lednice in the Czech Republic.  Twenty-four years ago he emigrated to America and lives in Manasquan, New Jersey where he’s a huge fan of the NHL Devils.  Three days ago, completely by accident, he changed history.

Zdenek loves America.  On Sunday (9/11) he went to witness the ceremony at Ground Zero, taking selfies, photos, and videos with his cellphone like many others in the crowd.  He noticed that Hillary Clinton was suddenly leaving unexpectedly.

Curious, he followed – and of all the pro journalists and tv cameramen, of all the horde of onlookers that follow her around, he happened to be the one guy in the right place at the right time to by chance have his cellphone video on and filming when she collapsed getting into her Caddy SUV.

Somehow, no one else noticed.  Not a single reporter or cameraman.  It was only when Zdenek posted his 20-second video clip on his Twitter page and began going viral that anyone in the media noticed.  Her collapse was filmed and twittered at 11:31am.  It wasn’t until 3:48pm that the world knew, via the huge siren-blaring headline on the Drudge Report: HILLARY FAINTS AS SECRET SERVICE RUSHES HER OUT OF 911 MEMORIAL

Without Zdenek Gazda, the Enemedia would have been able to continue their criminal coverup of Illary’s maladies – and their demonizing of anyone who shines a light on them (like Dr. Drew Pinsky).  You might consider thanking him on Zdenek’s Facebook page.

It’s almost totally thanks to Zdenek that her new nickname is Illary featured on the cover of the New York Post yesterday (9/13) and her many maladies the focus of world news right now:

At this moment there is a total 24/7 frenzy about Illary on every form of communication there is, from TV News to Twitter, from alt-right conspiracy sites to moonbat libtard ones.  Hillary’s dying of Parkinsons!  Trump is secretive too!  The DNC plot to throw Hillary off the ticket – read it here first!  Trump is as fat as Taft!

 Blah, blah, blah.  None of this matters, none at all.  What matters now is September 26^th.

From 9 to 10:30pm eastern time on that date, Trump and Hillary will square off mano-a-mano on a debate stage.  That is twelve days away from today, and today (9/14) Illary is hiding out in Chappaqua trying to recuperate from her alleged pneumonia.  Every day from now on to the 26^th, the questions will become louder and louder:

Can she make the debate?  How can she possibly be in full healthy fighting trim for the most watched event in history?

If she gets into one of her moments of dazed speechless confusion, no “Mystery Man” can rush to her side whispering a consoling “Keep talking, keep talking.”  (He’s Secret Service agent Todd Madison, by the way.)

If Trump has learned what triggers her, she may have one of her seizures.

Episodes like this have prompted the joke:  Q:  What’s Hillary’s favorite pizza?  A: Little Seizures.

And if she’s using an invisible inside-the-ear listening device for off-stage handlers to coach her on answers, if Trump has the auditorium scanned to locate the transmitter, then has an amazingly loud screech sent over the transmitter’s frequency at an opportune debate moment, it could be fun to watch what happens.

All this is unlikely to happen.  But it might.  And there will be hundreds of millions of people watching with magnifying glasses trying to spot any of it, any indication not just of outright mental impairment but a simple lack of mental fitness, sharpness, and clarity.

One question everyone will have:  Can she make it through 90 minutes without a coughing fit?  It’s likely she will, tanked up with suppressants – the side effects of which are notoriously severe:  confusion, irritability, nervousness, dizziness, drowsiness and more.

Unfortunately, the debate setting will be them sitting in chairs facing each other and across from the moderator, NBC News’ Lester Holt.  It would be much better if they had to stand at podiums for 90 minutes.  Illary has trouble standing lately, needing a stool, chair, or to be propped up.   Trump has recently begun calling for no moderator at all, just the two of them standing at podiums.

She’s likely to try her best at appearing relaxed and amiable, joking and friendly.  That will segue into mocking Trump, trying every which way to get under his famously thin skin, from his small hands to the small size of his wealth compared to his brags to his many business failures.

Providing Trump is prepared for this, as I hear he’s being prepped to be, once she starts going toe-to-toe with The Donald with who can out-mock and ridicule the other, she is going to end up on the canvas.

On the other hand, she may recover and be the experienced pro she’s spent decades being.  She could be at the top of her game and land body blows, such as exposing his gross ignorance of various policy issues which she knows inside out.

Then it’s up to him to hit her where she’s most vulnerable – her pathological dishonesty.

Almost everyone in America thinks she’s a crook, that the Clinton Foundation is an outrageously criminal conspiracy to sell State Department favors for donations that line her and Bill’s pockets.

And that her EmailGate has seriously jeopardized US national security, a scandal “worse than Watergate,” as Trump said yesterday (9/13) in Iowa.

Practically everyone in America thinks she’s a liar, that she lies about everything, that she’s fundamentally untrustworthy – which mean for the voter, you cannot trust her to be president.

Even lefties are bugged about this.  As Ed Morrissey says (9/13), It’s Not the Cough, It’s the Coverup.  The Piaps’ coverup of her illnesses infuriates Maureen Dowd so much she denounced it as the “perfect microcosm of why she has problems,” following “the exact same pattern she follows every time,” of having a “wall of defensiveness and secretiveness.”

Still, her candidacy depends on how she performs on September 26, not what anyone says or believes now.  Donna Brazile is not going to convene a meeting of the DNC Committee before then, and will afterward only if Illary has an on-stage health or mental meltdown.

If Illary does, the DNC will have to convene and hold a vote to replace her very quickly – before October 1^st.  That’s because all kinds of state laws kick in then (several have already) preventing a candidate’s replacement as early voting will have begun.

It’s worth noting that all these claims that DNC Bylaws require a candidate to voluntarily withdraw before they are replaced are not true.  Article Two Section 7(c) of the DNC Bylaws simply says:

“Special meetings of the National Committee may be held upon the call of the Chairperson with the approval of the Executive Committee with reasonable notice to the members, and no action may be taken at such a special meeting unless such proposed action was included in the notice of the special meeting.

 

The foregoing notwithstanding, a special meeting to fill a vacancy on the National ticket shall be held on the call of the Chairperson, who shall set the date for such meeting in accordance with the procedural rules provided for in Article Two, Section 8(d) of these Bylaws.”

Section 8(d) simply says:

“Except as otherwise provided in the Charter or in these Bylaws, all questions before the Democratic National Committee shall be determined by majority vote of those members present and voting in person or by proxy.”

Nothing in these rules say that the candidate must agree to his or her removal from the National ticket.  All that it takes for Hillary to be replaced as the Dem presidential candidate is a majority vote of the convened committee.  Period, whether she likes it or not.

Who would replace her if she’s kicked off?  It won’t be Bernie, that’s for sure.  And it’s unlikely to be Kaine as he’s such a lightweight.  So it almost has to be Biden.

As TTPers know, I thought it would be Biden all along – and I was wrong.  It would be weirdly ironic if I wasn’t.

Yet this is all speculation. The proof will be in the debate pudding.  And let’s be clear:  her candidacy is on the line on September 26.  Trump’s isn’t.  What are the odds that Trump will have a mental meltdown compared to Hillary?  The question answers itself.

What if she has a coughing fit right on camera with a billion people watching?  She could be toast in front of our eyes.

Two treatable weeks from now it can’t be allergies or even normal pneumonia.  The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research states: “The leading cause of death in Parkinson’s is aspiration pneumonia.”

The main cause of aspiration pneumonia is swallowing disorders.  What did she blame for her 911 collapse?  Being dehydrated.  What does her staff blame for that?  “She won’t drink water.”  Drinking water requires a lot of swallowing.

Whatever maladies plague her, she is one sick old woman.  Physically, mentally – and morally.  As Roger Simon observes (9/12), Hillary Clinton’s Real Sickness Isn’t Physical.

So… do we want Illary to flame out, crash and burn on September 26?  No.  We want her to skate by, Trump winning but her not being so bad Donna has to convene the DNC.

The reason?  Biden will be harder to beat.  He’s not perceived as a crook, a liar,  just likeably goofy. His negatives are a small fraction of hers. The Enemedia will go into hyper-drive for him.  Millions of Dems and Indies will be relieved that she is gone, that he’s okay, and they don’t have to vote for Trump because they can’t stomach her.

The fate of the nation may be riding on 90 minutes during September 26.  The clock is ticking….
