She was in a full meltdown and no one on her staff dared speak with her \u2013 she went kind of manic and didn&#8217;t have any control over herself at that point. How these people work with this woman is amazing to me.\u00a0 Most of the small military audience were cordoned off, their seating not close to Mrs. Clinton, but certainly they heard her screaming because it was loud&#8230;and she really didn&#8217;t seem to care who heard any of it.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Republican Donald Trump also appeared, in a separate telecast from Hillary Clinton&#8217;s and arrived with his two sons but no entourage or assistants in tow.\u00a0 The NBC cameramen involved in his segment said he was a &#8216;true gentleman&#8217; and Trump and his sons spoke to everyone and thanked them for inviting him to speak: &#8220;It was a pleasure to answer your questions Matt.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hillary Clinton&#8217;s segment was much different.
