During a lengthy telephone interview early Monday morning, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump addressed Hillary Clinton’s health issues, telling Fox News’ “Fox and Friends,” “Like you, I see what I see. The coughing fit was a week ago, so I assume that was pneumonia also.”
“But, I just hope she gets well and gets back on the trail. And, we’ll be seeing her at the debate,” Trump added.

When asked if he believed the Democrats might replace Clinton as the party’s nominee with either Vice President Joe Biden or Clinton’s running mate, Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, the candidate responded, “No, I don’t think they’ll replace her. We have to see what’s wrong. Whatever is, I’m ready.”
Asked if “health is an issue now,” the GOP candidate answered, “I think it’s an issue,” and also announced he recently had a physical and will release the results “when the numbers come in.”
