"Huma is making a very wise decision," Trump said after Huma in a statement said that she is separating from his husband Anthony Weiner, former New York congressman who had been involved in yet another sexting scandal.
"I know Anthony Weiner well, and she will be far better off without him," the 70-year-old said.
"I only worry for the country in that Hillary Clinton was careless and negligent in allowing Weiner to have such close proximity to highly classified information. Who knows what he learned and who he told? It's just another example of Hillary Clinton's bad judgment. It is possible that our country and its security have been greatly compromised by this," Trump alleged.
During the course of the interview, Trump suggested to allege that 40-year-old Huma, whose father is from India and mother Pakistan, may have ties to terrorism.

"Take a look at where she worked, by the way, and take a look at where her mother worked and works. You take a look at the whole event," he alleged.
"How Hillary got away with that one, nobody will ever know. But to think that it's very likely that much of this information, Anthony Wiener would know about and I think that's something that was terrible.
"At the same time, knowing Wiener, I think Huma did a very, very smart thing when she finally decided to leave him. Very smart. She had no choice," Trump alleged.
"After long and painful consideration and work on my marriage, I have made the decision to separate from my husband," Huma, vice chairwoman of the Clinton Campaign, said in a statement.
"Anthony and I remain devoted to doing what is best for our son, who is the light of our life. During this difficult time, I ask for respect for our privacy," Abedin said in a statement.
