Story highlights Donald Trump said he wasn't bothered by the pastor

Trump said the pastor was nervous before introducing him

(CNN) Donald Trump said "something was up" with Rev. Faith Green Timmons, the pastor who interrupted him to ask him not to attack Hillary Clinton in her church in Flint, Michigan on Wednesday. But Trump said he wasn't bothered by the interruption because "everyone plays their games."

Trump, speaking Thursday on Fox and Friends, was responding to the host's question about a post on Facebook (according to the Fox hosts, who noted it was later erased) that she hoped to "educate" Trump on what had been going on in Flint. CNN has not been able to review the Facebook post in question.

"She was so nervous, she was shaking. And I said, 'wow, this was kind of strange.' And then she came up. So she had that in mind, no question about it," Trump said, adding that he suspected that he might face an unfriendly reception at the church.

Clinton responded to Trump's characterization during a news conference Thursday afternoon, taking issue with Trump calling her "nervous."

"That's not only insulting, that's dead wrong. ... She's a rock for her community in trying times, she deserves better than that. And Flint deserves better," Clinton said in Greensboro, North Carolina.
