go after it. it does two things. one, he's willing to take on the clintons. he's already there. the second thing is seeing if she cracks. you know, jeb bush eventually cracked. other candidates eventually cracked when trump went after them. will hillary? she's got more discipline, i doubt she will but that's something i'm watching for. how does she handle these attacks. >> i want to know how trump is handling the new video by al shabaab, the al qaeda-linked group. this is something hillary called outer ler. >> sure. >> she said these terrorists are going to use him as a tool. these are things you asked him about before, right? >> i did. obviously he got upset. when hillary clinton said it was happening, the debate hadn't happened yet. said what if your words show up in a video, will it make you rethink. he said not at all.
