Francois Hollande: Donald Trump makes me sick

French president Francois Hollande has criticised US presidential candidate Donald Trump, saying some of the things the Republican does makes him sick.

“Some excesses make your stomach turn, even in the United States, especially when — as did Donald Trump — he speaks ill of a soldier, of the memory of a soldier,” Mr Hollande told members of the French Presidential Press Association.

Mr Hollande was referring to Mr Trump’s recent comments about Captain Humayun Khan, a US soldier killed in Iraq in 2004. Capt Khan’s parents criticised Mr Trump’s anti-Muslim rhetoric, only for Mr Trump to suggest the Khans were controlled by rival Hillary Clinton’s campaign and Ms Khan “wasnt allowed” to speak.
