Reliving this makes me so angry.
The indictment reports that Corsi and Stone decided to instigate the Clinton is sick lie on August 2. By August 15, Trump was making it a regular part of his campaign. Clintons campaign tried to counter the narrative, but media ignored her and ran with it anyway.

So infuriating. And when they all go down, the people who voted for him will deflect, try to take zero blame and fault Hillary Clinton for being unlikeable, the worst candidate, etc., when of course, he was, and she warned us, but they ignored it, voted for him because #misogyny.

Wikileaks also ran a poll (a poll!) about Clintons health around that time, asking voters to speculate on the nature of the illness.
