Trump supporters may scratch their heads when they see this recent video where Trump praises Hillary Clinton as a friend and a wonderful woman. Trump was an enthusiastic Clinton supporter when she ran for senate, as well. In this video, titled Trump Endorses Hillary Clinton, we see the real estate mogul goes to great lengths to laud Hillary and her accomplishments.
TIME reports:
In 2012, as Obama was running for re-election, Trump called Clinton “terrific” again in an interview with Fox News, saying she performed well as Secretary of State.
“Hillary Clinton I think is a terrific woman,” he told Greta Van Susteren. “I am biased because I have known her for years. I live in New York. She lives in New York. I really like her and her husband both a lot. I think she really works hard. And I think, again, she’s given an agenda, it is not all of her, but I think she really works hard and I think she does a good job. I like her.
And on Fox and Friends on Wednesday, Trump explained why he donated to Clinton’s campaigns.
“I’m a businessman. I contribute to everybody,” Trump said. “When I needed Hillary, she was there. If I say ‘go to my wedding,’ they go to my wedding.”
Trump acts like having Hillary at his beckon call means his close relationship with her and her husband is unimportant. But if Trump had such influence over Clinton, why wasn’t he exerting that when it came to her politics– or was he?
Either way, the video is clear: Trump thinks Hillary Clinton is a wonderful woman who did a terrific job as Secretary of State.
