Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton called for “fact-checkers” to save her against Republican nominee Donald Trump in Monday’s debate.
Trump attacked Clinton’s initial support of the war in Iraq Monday, saying the way the United States government pulled out of the Middle Eastern country was irresponsible.
“Well, I hope the fact checkers are turning up the volume and really working hard,” Clinton retorted. “Donald supported the invasion of Iraq. That is proved over and over again. He actually advocated for the actions we took in Libya, and urged that Gadhafi be taken out after actually doing some business with him one time.”
This was the third time Clinton called for fact-checkers during the debate, relying on the “main stream media” to argue Trump’s points for her. Bloomberg and other news outlets reported they would fact-check Trump live throughout the debate.
