The billionaire businessman also sniffed as he responded to questions about the leaked 2005 video showing Trump bragging to Access Hollywood host Billy Bush about sexually assaulting women.
Trump’s heavy breathing became a hot topic in the previous debate and when he was asked about it the next morning, Trump denied he’d been sniffling.
“No, no sniffles,” he said on “Fox & Friends.” ”No sniffles, no cold.”
The fiery second presidential debate began with Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump refusing to shake hands as they entered the debate hall in St. Louis.
The two candidates exchanged several blows on the Trump tapes, the Clinton email scandal and the U.S. affordable care act.
