Turns out Donald Trump might not have the best of breath, at least, that’s what Hillary Clinton seems to be insinuating anyway.
Canadian journalist Elizabeth Renzetti took to Twitter to praise the former U.S Secretary of State’s new political-mystery novel, “State of Terror.”
The book, which was released back in October, features a character named President Eric Dunn, which Renzetti described in her tweet as a “hulking moron whose breath smells of meat.”

And the internet is absolutely living for her shady response.

As you may recall, Trump loves his burgers.
I mean, seriously loves burgers.

So has Clinton’s art imitated life? It sure seems like it.
