“They’re doing it to try to influence the election for Donald Trump,” Clinton said in a second presidential debate.
In response, Trump appeared to reject findings from the intelligence community that Russia was behind the hacks, saying “maybe there is no hacking.”
Earlier, Donald Trump dismissed his predatory remarks about groping women as “locker room talk,” and took a swipe at Hillary Clinton’s husband Bill over past sexual misconduct in a fiery second US presidential debate on Sunday.
The Democrat Hillary Clinton, facing a deeply wounded candidate with one month to go before Election Day, pushed back by saying Trump’s lewd comments, caught on a hot mic, merely showed his true self.
With tens of millions of Americans tuning in for the televised showdown, the Republican nominee may have been expected to show contrition as he seeks to move beyond the crisis triggered by the tape’s release.
Instead Trump levelled a blunt attack at former president Clinton — present in the audience — asserting that he has a history of abusing women, and inviting several of his accusers to attend the debate.
