Trump’s theory on why Clinton hides from media

Donald Trump charged Wednesday that Hillary Clinton is avoiding the press at all costs because she can’t explain why she deleted so many private emails from her tenure as secretary of state.

“Crooked Hillary Clinton will not do press conferences because she cannot explain her illegally deleted 33,000 emails, or her disaster in Libya, or her role pushing TPP (which she would 100 percent approve if she got the chance), or her support for a 550 percent increase in Syrian refugees, etc.,” Trump wrote.

Trump’s comment was in reply to a question from his first-ever Q&A on Reddit Wednesday night. Clinton hasn’t given a press conference in 235 days, and was asked why she’s “refusing to hold any press conferences.”

The Republican nominee was an hour late to the online event. His campaign said WiFi was unreliable at 30,000 feet above ground while he traveled from a rally in Scranton, Pa., to Toledo, Ohio.

But shortly before 8 p.m. EST, Trump surfaced online to answer a few questions.
