The man's departure prompted shouts and cheers from the crowd and drew the attention of Clinton, who stopped her speech, turned and laughed, and then commented on the man.

"You know, I do hope somebody follows that gentleman out and stages an intervention," she said in between laughs.

"He clearly has not been following this election very closely."

The man was wearing a shirt in the style of the iconic poster from President Obama's 2008 campaign, which showed his face in red, white and blue with the word "hope" below it. The man's shirt showed Bill Clinton's face with the word "rape" underneath.

Trump has thrust Clinton's infidelities and charges of sexual assault levied against him into the spotlight in retaliation after the release of a 2005 recording last week in which he talkes about grabbing women sexually without consent.

The GOP nominee brought three women who accused Clinton of harassment, abuse or rape to Sunday night's debate in St. Louis, holding a pre-debate press conference with them and inviting them into the debate hall as his guests.
