Donald Trump Friday attacked Hillary Clinton over her husband's sexual infidelity and said that he was rethinking whether to support her if she won in November.
"We're going to have to see," the Republican nominee told The New York Times in an interview. "We're going to see what happens. We’re going to have to see."
Trump had said in his debate with Clinton on Monday that he would "absolutely" support the former secretary of state if she won the White House on Nov. 8.
Turning to former President Bill Clinton, Trump said that his indiscretions were fair game because Hillary Clinton has used women to suit her own political ends, the Times reports.
He cited Clinton's support of former Miss Universe winner Alicia Machado, whom Trump has attacked for gaining weight.
The former secretary "made this young lady into a girl scout when she was the exact opposite," Trump told the Times.
He contrasted that with how Clinton attacked women who had been linked to affairs with her husband, including Monica Lewinsky and Gennifer Flowers.
"Hillary Clinton was married to the single greatest abuser of women in the history of politics," Trump said. "Hillary was an enabler — and she attacked the women who Bill Clinton mistreated afterward.
"I think it's a serious problem for them — and it’s something that I’m considering talking about more in the near future," Trump said.
However, Trump told the Times that his own marital history did not prevent him from attacking Clinton on her husband's.
He had an affair with Marla Maples while married to his first wife, Ivana, who divorced him in 1991. They had three children.
Trump married Maples in 1993, two months after their daughter was born. They were divorced in 1999.
He married his current wife, Melania, in 2005. They have a son.
Trump argued that Bill Clinton's activities had "brought shame onto the presidency, and Hillary Clinton was there defending him all along."
