Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said Monday she thought it would be "fun" to go to Donald Trump's wedding a decade ago, pushing back the businessman's claim that she went because of donations he had made.
"I didn't know him that well," Clinton said during a press conference in New Hampshire.
"I mean, I knew him. I knew him and I happened to be planning to be in Florida and I thought it'd be fun to go to his wedding, because it's always entertaining," Clinton said.
"Now that he's running for president, it's a little more troubling," Clinton added.
Trump at last Thursday's GOP debate on Fox News said Clinton went to his wedding because of his past donations to the Clinton Foundation and former secretary of State."With Hillary Clinton, I said, ‘Be at my wedding.’ And she came to my wedding. You know why? She had no choice because I gave."
In an interview the following morning on the "Today" show, Trump said it was "very nice" the Clintons attended his wedding and he meant his remark as a joke.
Trump has donated at least $100,000 to the Clinton Foundation, which has faced intense scrutiny amid Clinton's nascent 2016 campaign, and Bill and Hillary Clinton were photographed at his 2005 wedding to Melania Knauss in Palm Beach.
Clinton said Monday that Trump appears to be having the "time of his life" running for president.
She was hoping to find some loose silverware to pocket during the reception.
I am trusting him less and less each day.
OMG, I spit all over my keyboard. Hilarious!
Her husbands golf buddy who donated 6-figures into her foundation, she definitely knew him.
“I am trusting him less and less each day.”
You are trusting Hillary more and more?
he dumped his wife for a foreign porn star...jeesh
I see.. SOooo the money Trump gave them/her was WASTED?... OK..
A mistake... money down a black hole.. a boondoggle... foolish.. Stupid.. not respected.. silly.. insane..
AND WE’RE SUPPOSE TO ELECT THIS IDIOT PRESIDENT?... HELLO!...
>>”With Hillary Clinton, I said, ‘Be at my wedding.’ And she came to my wedding. You know why? She had no choice because I gave.”
This line was the best part of the “debate”. Only Trump could make a statement like this and have everyone know that it is 100% accurate.
Two words....
Open Bar
She just wanted to get close enough to sniff his wife
And if Trump were not in the race would you trust the RNC and the media to not target Cruz next?
Sit back and ENJOY THE RIDE. Jeb and the other Jebsters are getting NO traction, and that's great news!
Strange. I wonder if there is a reason the mediums didn't want to "go there" as the young people say.
Perhaps Hitlery's husband can offer some insight. What does he think of Trump's War on Women?
Ten years ago and it was wedding for the elite of the country...
Oh My!! Lol.
Bwahahaha, she just Can't. Stop. Lying.
Well, his trophy wife has done lesbian porn
“I fail to understand why this is even a issue on either side of the political spectrum....”
Trump implied the Clinton’s were bought.
