Clinton amid coughing fit: ‘I’m allergic to Trump’

Hillary Clinton took a jab at Donald Trump amid a coughing fit that erupted right after she took the stage for a campaign rally in Cleveland on Monday.

{mosads}“Every time I think about Trump I get allergic,” she said as she continued to cough while trying to thank the event organizers. 

“Once I get over my allergic reaction, let me say that we’re here in part because we know how important this election is to Ohio. It’s not just as Tim said that Ohio is one of those battleground states you hear about every four years, it’s that Ohio represents everything that’s great about America and all of the challenges and opportunities that we face.” 

The coughing fit lasted long enough to attract attention on social media, especially given the recent rumors that the Democratic nominee is in poor health.
