Claim: Donald Trump attacks Hillary Clinton over her record on defending women's rights
Reality Check verdict: It would be a stretch to say Clinton was laughing at the victim. Trump was referring to a case from the mid-1980s, when she was working as a lawyer, She defended a factory worker accused of raping a 12-year-old girl. In unpublished audio recordings of an interview she had with an Arkansas reporter, she is heard laughing four times while discussing the trial. In one instance she says: “Of course he [the defendant] claimed he didn’t [rape her]…He took a lie detector test. I had him take a polygraph, which he passed, which forever destroyed my faith in polygraphs”. Clinton and the reporter are then heard laughing. The accused ultimately admitted a reduced charge and the victim has since said Clinton put “me through hell”.
Moderator Cooper presses Trump about his early hours Twitter rant against former Miss Universe Alicia Machado, saying is that the discipline of a president?

"Tweeting happens to be a modern-day form of communication,” he says.
"I'm not unproud of it," he says.
