Karl Rove suggested at a conference Thursday that Hillary Clinton suffered a “traumatic brain injury,” according to the New York Post’s Page Six.
“Thirty days in the hospital? And when she reappears, she’s wearing glasses that are only for people who have traumatic brain injury?” Rove told the audience, as quoted by the Post. “We need to know what’s up with that.”
The Post reported that Rove repeated the claim several times at the conference, where he was speaking alongside former Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs and CBS correspondent Dan Raviv. He urged Republicans to continue pressing for answers about the Benghazi attacks and said voters deserve to know about the former secretary of state’s health issues if she decides to run for president, according to the Post.
Clinton was hospitalized in December 2012 for a blood clot caused by a concussion she sustained in an earlier fall. Those complications temporarily delayed her testimony before Congress on the Benghazi attacks.
A spokesperson for Clinton told the Post to “Please assure Dr. Rove she’s 100 percent.”
“Karl Rove has deceived the country for years, but there are no words for this level of lying,” the spokesperson added.
A desperate attempt by “Turd Blossom” to be relevant again.
Excellent response from the spokesperson.
Evil Bastard! BTW a brain damaged Hillary Clinton will be 100 times smarter than George Bush.
Or Ronald Reagan. That poor bastard was out of it for almost his entire second term, but they still light votive candles to him.
Another campaign, another Big Lie slander from Rove.
Kerry was a coward and a traitor. Obama was that “arrogant guy at the country club with the cigarette” (don’t all you blue collar white voters just hate that guy?). Hillary is "brain damaged.
And isn’t it the damnedest thing how all the slanders Democrats seem to be descriptive of George W. Bush?
