Today, Hillary gave a brief press conference on a tarmac in NY to break the streak.

“Donald Trump says he alone can fix the problems we face. The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic – you name it”.
At a rally on Friday before thousands of cheering supporters in Pensacola, Florida, Trump had more harsh words for the Democratic presidential nominee in the fallout over their crossfire at a televised national security forum in NY on Wednesday.
When she was secretary, Clinton ran a criminal enterprise, Trump asserted, by granting favors to donors to the Clinton Foundation charity, and he accused her of smashing telephones with hammers to hide evidence from investigators.
“He tweets and retweets their offensive, hateful, mean-spirited rhetoric”, she added, referring to the multiple times the real-estate mogul has engaged with alt-right racists online.
Trump criticized USA policy in Iraq from the days of Republican President George W. Bush, who ordered the American-led invasion in 2003 in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001, al Qaeda attacks on the United States.
“You think I’m going to stand up here and be election pundit?”
“Last night was yet another test and Donald Trump failed yet again”.
Mr Trump also said he appreciated some of the kind words Mr Putin has had for him.
Trump’s foreign policy positions have already driven more than 50 Republican national security experts to refuse to back him.
Trump’s remarks are “unpatriotic” and “insulting”, Clinton said, going on to wonder out loud what former Republican President Ronald Reagan would say about a GOP presidential candidate who “attacks” the country’s generals and praises the Russian leader.
“Every Republican holding or seeking office in this country should be asked if they agree with Donald Trump about these statements”, Clinton said in a morning news conference. “I don’t know that he’s saying that he agrees with everything that Putin does, he’s just making an observation”. I mean, you can say, oh, isn’t that a bad thing?
By virtue of a coin flip, Clinton took the stage first and quickly found herself responding at length to questions about her years in government.

Clinton has been asked the question after Priebus wrote on Twitter: “Hillary Clinton was angry and defensive the entire time – no smile and uncomfortable – upset that she was caught wrongly sending our secrets”. “But you should. None of us is ideal”, Clinton said.
