"The Clinton Foundation does a lot of good work. I also want to say that for the record, they do," Conway said.

Conway, who was named as Trump's new campaign manager last week, was questioned about Trump's donations to the global charity. The billionaire donated between $100,001 and $250,00, according to a list on the foundation's website.

The businessman turned Republican presidential nominee has since ratcheted up his attacks on the foundation, calling for it to be " shut down immediately ."

He has described it as "the most corrupt enterprise in political history" as Republicans attack a perceived conflict of interest in donations to the group during's time as secretary of State.
