Reacting to her involvement, Trump remarked, "I think she's doing better than the professionals right now."
Turning his attention to domestic politics and political opponents, Trump levelled sharp criticism at the Democrats, accusing them of widespread corruption across several cities and states.
"Democrats are very corrupt. To me, corruption is one of the biggest things. If you look at Minnesota, if you look at Los Angeles, if you look at New York, the corruption is rampant and to me, corruption is a very big factor," Trump said.
Further raising questions about election integrity and alleged voting irregularities, he added, "They found a lot of discrepancies — bad ones, big ones. In Los Angeles, as you know, they have 20,000 votes, and it could be as high as a million votes... The U.S. Attorney found, potentially, hundreds of thousands of illicit votes."
