Donald Trump and his top surrogates practiced something unusual Monday: subtlety.

After weeks of floating debunked conspiracy theories about Clinton's health, Trump and his campaign instead said they sincerely hope the Democratic nominee is on the mend after being diagnosed with pneumonia.
"I hope she gets well soon. I don't know what's going on. I'm like you. I just see what I see -- the coughing fit was a week ago, so I assume that was pneumonia also," Trump said Monday on Fox News' "Fox and Friends." "So something is going on, but i just hope she gets well and gets back on the trail, and we'll be seeing her at the debate."
Trump said during the interview that he'll soon make public the results of a doctor's physical he had last week.
Clinton was pulled off the trail Sunday after "overheating" at a remembrance of the September 11, 2001, terror attacks in New York. The subsequent revelation that she was diagnosed with pneumonia Friday has renewed questions about her transparency.
In a CNBC interview later Monday, Trump was slightly more pointed when he appeared to question the timing of the diagnosis.
"It was interesting because they say pneumonia on Friday, but she was coughing very, very badly a week ago, and even before that, if you remember. This wasn't the first time. So, it's very interesting to see what is going on. I want her to get better," Trump said.
Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn told CNN's Alisyn Camerota that he hopes she's doing alright, but quickly moved to praising Trump's energy in contrast.

President Barack Obama will veto a bill that would allow terror victims of the attacks on September 11, 2001, to sue Saudi Arabia, the White House said Monday.

"That's still the plan," White House press secretary Josh Earnest said when asked if the President planned to veto the bill.
The White House had previously suggested Obama would not sign the bill when it first passed the Senate in May saying it would complicate diplomatic relations.
Earnest defended the administration's stance against the bill saying it is not "an effective, forceful way for us to respond to terrorism."
Lawmakers are expected to attempt to override the veto, and if successful, would mark the first time in Obama's presidency.
Earnest said the bill -- which passed the House unanimously on Friday -- has not yet been presented to the President.
