Hillary Clinton has certainly not been shy about publicly calling out Donald Trump over his various statements, tweets, and shortcomings over the course of the last year. Now that she’s on a press tour promoting her book What Happened, detailing her side of everything that happened during the 2016 presidential campaign, her critiques have gotten even more pointed. Particularly with recent catastrophic events in Puerto Rico, where the aftermath of Hurricane Maria left millions without food, water, electricity, or homes. On Wednesday night’s Tonight Show opposite host Jimmy Fallon, Hillary didn’t hold back:
“I was right in the middle of our government’s response to the horrible effects of the earthquake in Haiti [in 2010, when Clinton was Secretary of State], so I knew what we’re capable of doing. And I waited, because they don’t need me saying, ‘Hey, send the naval assets, get the hospital ship Comfort down there. But a couple of days later, nothing was happening! So I tweeted, I tweeted at the President and the Secretary of Defense, and the Defense Department, and I basically implored them to send the naval assets, especially the hospital ship. And it took a few more days, and then finally they did. And it’s just hard to figure out, you know. What are the priorities?”
Clinton went on to take a jab at Trump’s seemingly frequent extracurricular activities while Puerto Ricans were suffering: “What are you people spending your time doing? Golfing? Tweeting? Watching cable TV?”
