Trump Demands Apology From Clinton Over ISIS Recruitment Claims

Donald Trump said Monday that he “demands an apology” from Hillary Clinton over her comments at Saturday night’s debate that he is being used as a recruiting tool for ISIS and is featured in ISIS videos.

“You can be the messenger," Trump told Matt Lauer on the "Today" show. "I will demand an apology from Hillary. She should apologize.”

"She lies about emails," Trump continued. "She lies about Whitewater. She lies about everything. She will be a disaster as president of the United States."

Clinton came under heavy criticism from fact-checkers when she said at Saturday night's debate that ISIS is “showing videos of Donald Trump insulting Islam and Muslims in order to recruit more radical jihadists.” White House and National Security Council officials told ABC News they are unaware of any examples of ISIS including Trump in the terrorist group's videos.

Jennifer Palmieri, Clinton's communications director, clarified the candidate's remarks yesterday on "This Week with George Stephanopolous."

"She’s not referring to a specific video, but he is being used in social media by ISIS as propaganda,” Palmieri explained.
