Summary
Former President Bill Clinton, 78, was hospitalized at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital in Washington for testing and observation after developing a fever.
Aides described the situation as non-urgent, with Clinton alert, in good spirits, and expected to recover fully.
Clinton has a history of health issues, including a quadruple bypass in 2004, a 2010 heart procedure, and a 2021 hospitalization for a urological infection.
Is it the same fever that he had when he was flying on Epstein’s jet? Sorry, we must call out all of them, not just the orange genius.
Rich, important old man gets the sniffles so the personal medical team go into a panic doesn’t really feel like a story to me.
Yeah wtf. How did this get hundred upvotes lmao.
Must be nice. My wife had a fucking TIA at 40, and they left her in the ER for like 8 hours un monitored, and still wouldn’t admit her
I had a heart attack in 2021
I sat in the waiting room so long I had actually called for a ride to leave and then someone decided to look at my blood test
Troponin level was 280 for any medical people (should be under 7)
I was in bed for three days after developing a fever. I wrote the fever code in JavaScript, no less.
Where’s the news article about my ordeal?
TL:DR on Clinton being a piece of shit.
I get he’s a rich asshole, we got anything beyond that? I always thought his presidency was rather tame but I wasn’t really paying attention to politics at the time.
how fucking old are you, gh-
Old enough to see the 1989 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle film in theaters.
Oh boy. He’s actually a president I hate almost as much as Reagan!
The Clinton legacy was the complete dismantle of the federal government and privatization of core government functions. He’s why we have private prisons and partial privatization of Medicare.
He was a conservative Democrats when those were still a thing. Gore was the political opposite of what Clinton stood for.
Clinton balanced the budget by ransacking social programs and aging a bunch of means testing to make qualifications what they are today. He’s why public housing disappeared.
The only thing Clinton did that I like is cutting back on defense spending. He was otherwise a terrible president that unified conservative ideals of both the conservative Dems and Republicans at the time.
The only reason he didn’t do more damage is the response of the Republicans at the time ended up being newt gingrich who drove the party further to the right and made it a party motto to obstruct everything that a Democrat wants to do.
Clinton move the Democrats right which caused Republicans to run farther right. The conservative Democrats that came in with Clinton still linger today with all the shitty notions of what government should look like. That’s why Kamala ran the dumbass campaign that she did. DC is infected with the notion that Democrats need to be Republican lite. All this comes from DC morons wanting desperately to recreate the Clinton presidency.
Also, the 1996 telecom act and privatizing of the internet backbone both played a huge part in creating this awful world where a handful of ISPs and tech/media conglomerates control everything
Also, he made a big deal about taking time off the campaign trail in 1992 to go back to the state where he was governor to personally oversee the execution of a mentally disabled black man named Ricky Ray Rector because he was all “I’m not like those other Democrats, I’m tough on crime!”
e; believe it or not this is the better written 2nd draft
But but but he played the sax on TV!! He’s so cool and so relatable
He put so many black and brown people in prison with his racist crime bills.
Well, half of that would surely make anyone at least a jerk, at base level. All of it? That’s surely enough for top asshole status.
Alright. Fuck Clinton. New headcanon.
Fuck Bill Clinton. He is the worst Democrat president in my life.
He and Janet Reno set personal freedom back more than any other president and paved the way for the Patriot Act
I always say “Obama was the best Republican president of my life.” It really triggers some folks.

He’s got the bird flue! Lol
Oof, if he’s at “hospital for uti” age he’s not got long.
Big difference between some old dude and a former president. They get unparalleled healthcare.
Hopefully he dies
That’s cool. Good for him. Hope it sucks.
