NEW YORK - U.S. Representative Jerrold Nadler became woozy and appeared almost to faint during a press briefing on Friday with New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, but the congressman said soon after that he had been dehydrated and was now feeling better.
During the late morning briefing in Manhattan about the city’s planned implementation of speed traffic cameras, de Blasio stopped speaking, turned to Nadler who was slumping over in the chair next to him and offered him some water.Nadler responded, “No,” but declined the mayor’s offer of water and put his hand to his head.
“He got more energetic with every passing minute,” the mayor said “He was starting to talk to everyone, joke around, answer a whole bunch of medical questions.” The New York Democrat underwent stomach-reduction surgery 17 years ago when he weighed 338 pounds and shed more than 60 pounds from his 5-foot, 4-inch frame within months, according to media reports.
