Patton Oswalt said the fact that Hillary Clinton continued to campaign after she was diagnosed with pneumonia is a sign of strength.
The 47-year-old comedian weighed in on the Democratic nominee’s recent sickness on Twitter Monday.
Wait, so Hillary has PNEUMONIA and she's still campaigning as hard as she is? You realize how badass that is, right?

Psychotic, dissociative narcissism with lack of empathy > pneumonia. #ImWithHer

Oswalt echoed Josh Barro’s sentiment that the diagnosis will improve Clinton’s image.
I'm not sure it's right, but there's an argument to be made that this episode will improve Clinton's image.

It shows her doing her best to grit her teeth and work hard even with pneumonia. And it's humanizing, relatable.
