Donald Trump “admonished Hillary Clinton for having the father of the Orlando shooter seated behind her at a recent campaign rally,” NBC News reports.
Said Trump: “Wasn’t it terrible? Sitting with a big smile on his face right behind Hillary Clinton … When you get those seats, you sort of know the campaign.”
“But as he said those words, disgraced former Congressman Mark Foley smiled up at him from behind the stage. Foley, a Republican who represented southern Florida, was forced to resign his seat in September 2006 in the wake of allegations that he sent sent suggestive emails and instant messages to congressional pages. The former congressman shared Trump’s camera shot, with a smile, for the entirety of the hour-long rally.”
