Washington : Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Monday wished his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton quick recovery after she was diagnosed with pneumonia and said he would soon release his own health report card. “I hope she gets well soon,” Trump told Fox News in an interview when asked about the illness of Clinton.
“I don’t know what’s going on. I see what I see. The coughing fit was a week ago, so I assume that was pneumonia also. I mean, I think it would have been, so something’s going on,” he said in response to a question. “But I just hope she gets well and gets back on the trail, and we’ll be seeing her at the debate,” said Trump.
Trump appeared to be refuting speculation that Clinton might be replaced by Vice President Joe Biden because of her illness. “I don’t think they’ll replace her. We have to see what’s wrong. I mean, we have to see what’s wrong. But whatever it is, it is. I’m ready, whatever it is,” he said. However, Trump said that the health has now become a presidential issue.
