Shortly after presidential candidate Donald Trump unveiled a $5.6 million donation to veterans groups, his opponent Hillary Clinton exclaimed to CNN that he had been "shamed" into it by the media.

Speaking over the phone with Jake Tapper, Clinton said Trump doesn't deserve "much credit" for the large donation, claiming he did it just to save face.

"Look, I'm glad he finally did it, but I don't know that he should get much credit," Hillary said.

"I think the problem here is the difference between what Donald Trump says and what Donald Trump does.""It took a reporter to shame him into actually making his contribution," she added, failing to specify the identity of that reporter.

Amid the unveiling, Trump accused Clinton of making zero contributions to veterans groups, which she refuted to Jake Tapper, saying she raised money for the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund alongside Arizona Sen.

John McCain.Clinton also said she personally gave money to the fund, though she did not say the exact amount, as noted by CNN.
