Donald Trump called on the Clintons to shut down the Clinton Foundation Monday and to return the money that was donated from countries that discriminate “against women and gays.”

Appearing on Fox News’s “Fox & Friends,” regarding the Clinton Foundation, Trump said, “Well, number one, they should shut it down, and number two, they should give the money back to a lot of countries we shouldn’t be taking– and they shouldn’t be taking money from. Countries that influenced her totally and also countries that discriminated against women and gays and everybody else. I mean, that money should be given back. They should not take that money.” (RELATED: Clinton Foundation Won’t Accept Foreign And Corporate Donations If Hillary Is Elected)

Co-host Ainsley Earhardt followed up, “Honestly, do you think that will happen?”

“It should happen,” Trump replied. “Whether or not it will, they’re very greedy people, so maybe it won’t. But it should happen.”

Prior to his appearing on TV, Trump released this statement:

“Hillary Clinton is the defender of the corrupt and rigged status quo. The Clintons have spent decades as insiders lining their own pockets and taking care of donors instead of the American people. It is now clear that the Clinton Foundation is the most corrupt enterprise in political history. What they were doing during Crooked Hillary’s time as Secretary of State was wrong then, and it is wrong now. It must be shut down immediately.”
