let's talk about the Clinton Foundation. That continues to dog her in terms of whether or not there was impropriety between the Clinton Foundation and the State Department.
the issue with the Clinton Foundation is that there's nothing criminally wrong right now but it just feeds a perception that there are so many people hundreds of people, thousands of people to whom the Clintons owe favors when she gets into the White House.
There's a sense that people gave money to this foundation in order to ingratiate themselves with the former president and with the current Secretary of State and future president. And so it just feeds the sense of corruption around the Clintons that they really are having a hard time addressing directly.
does the president of Turkey still think the U.S. played a role in the recent attempt to overthrow him?
We have very clear evidences that coup d'etat attempt on 15th of July has strong links with Gulen, who is here in Poconos, Pennsylvania, and a group of people in the military service. They intended to make a military coup d'etat but because of the courage of people, people showed their resistance against the coup and people managed to save the Turkish democracy.

New Ties Emerge Between Clinton And Mysterious Islamic Cleric
Connections between Clinton and acolytes of the imam, Fethullah Gulen, could muddle the complex relationship between the U.S. and Turkey
Erdoğan, who was once allied with Gulen, has even personally asked President Obama to extradite the 74-year-old guru, who has lived in self-exile in Pennsylvania’s Pocono mountains since 1999.
It shows that a Gulen-aligned group called the Alliance for Shared Values hired the Clinton-connected Podesta Group to lobby Congress on its behalf.
