7:10 am
when one of the people asking the questions would have said, well, so how exactly how are you going to create more jobs? right? i mean i thought, you know, i thought at some moment that would happen. >> reporter: but that moment did happen more than once. >> please explain to me why you believe that your plan will create more jobs and growth for this country and your opponent's plan will not. >> reporter: the former secretary of state mocked the man who beat her for attempting international diplomacy via twitter. >> negotiations are critical, but they have to be part of a broader strategy, not just thrown out on a tweet some morning that, hey, let's get together and see if we can't get along. maybe we can, you know, come up with some sort of a deal. that doesn't work. >> clinton did say she supports president trump's decision to launch air strikes in syria last month, but beyond that she had
