WASHINGTON (AP) – The Latest on Campaign 2016 on the eve of Monday’s presidential debate at 9:00 p.m. on MSNBC from Hofstra University (all times local):
9:22 a.m.
Will Gennifer Flowers attend the first debate between presidential candidates Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton? Only if someone other than Trump’s campaign invites her.
That’s according to Trump’s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway. She tells CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday that “we don’t expect her to be there as a guest of the Trump campaign.” But on ABC’s “This Week,” Conway said Flowers has a right to attend “if somebody else gives her a ticket.”
Flowers claims she had a lengthy affair with Bill Clinton while he served as governor. The accusation nearly derailed his presidential bid in 1992. Bill Clinton acknowledged having caused pain in his marriage.
