when you make these divisive statements? >> women respect me, they like me, they know i'm going to take care of them, i'm going protect them. >> reporter: most recently clinton has been challenging trump saying antimuslim statements have been fueling isis recruitment. >> they are going to people showing videos of donald trump insulting islam and muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists. >> reporter: but trump's firing back. once again, from his rally last night. >> she's terrible. donald trump is on video and isis is using him on the video to recruit. it turned out to be a lie. >> how is it going? >> reporter: in an interview with my colleague for this week trump stood firm saying there's no evidence. >> the argument she's making beyond the video is that your words are being broadcast throughout the arab world and you know, why -- is there any doubt that isis would use what you're saying about muslims? >> but there is no argument beyond the video.

imagine to recruit but they didn't use me on a video. >> reporter: today the former secretary of state doubling down and slamming trump again for what she says is dangerous rhetoric being reaired on arabic television. >> if you go on arabic television as we have and you look at what is being blasted out, it is playing into the hands of the violent jihadists. >> reporter: all of this just may be the last headline from trump heading into the christmas holiday. but he will be back on the trail come monday. remember, there's just 40 days left until the iowa caucuses where perhaps his fate among the republican party will begin to be decided. >> donald trump is playing the game that he understands very well, which is to entertain and to insult and to treat this like it's a reality tv show. and it's not. it's the presidency of the united states. up next, how twin brothers who couldn't be more different teamed up to become massive
