BILL O'REILLY (HOST): You said this morning that Hillary Clinton is evil. What does that mean?
DONALD TRUMP: Well, they asked me, you know, one word. I never liked the one word comparisons or analogies, but they asked me one word for various people. And she has got -- you know there is a tendency, if you look at the job she did as secretary of state and the destruction that she has caused, I just -- I don't know what it is, the word evil came to mind. The decisions that they made on so many different fronts as secretary of state were absolutely insane, and I thought, I immediately thought of the word evil.
O'REILLY: Yeah, but isn't that inept? Alright you invited Hillary Clinton to your wedding.
[CROSSTALK]
O'REILLY: You could have invited anybody to your wedding, you don't invite evil people to your wedding.
TRUMP: I could have invited you to my wedding also.
O'REILLY: Yeah, but I am evil. I mean, evil applies to me.
TRUMP: Well, that's right. I get along with everybody. Bill, when I was in business.
O'REILLY: Wait, but I'm curious about this. Inept I could see, you're saying that her tenure as secretary of state really wasn't good for the country, but that's more of an ineptitude, than -- evil is evil is somebody --
TRUMP: Okay, okay. I could have used inept. I could have used inept, but I could have used evil too, frankly.
O'REILLY: But that's in your mind, that she might be evil.
TRUMP: At a certain point, you say to yourself what's going on over here, how do you make so many bad decisions? You look at what's going on in the Middle East right now, you look at the decisions made by her and President Obama. Whether you call it evil or inept, I really don't care, but a lot of bad things have happened and a lot of death has taken place.
O'REILLY: Alright, so I'm going to say that you don't really think she is evil though? You don't think Mrs. Clinton is evil.
TRUMP: Well, let's just keep it in abeyance, let's see what happens.O'REILLY: Alright.
