On a day that Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump attacked her husband, Hillary Clinton picked up the gauntlet, vowing to "stand up to him."

The Democratic presidential candidate's response came in the form of a statement from Clinton deputy communications director Christina Reynolds. It alludes to Trump's criticism of Clinton's husband, former President Bill Clinton, without defending him. Trump charged the former president of "a terrible record of women's abuse" in a tweet earlier Monday. In 1998, after a sexual liaison with a White House intern, Bill Clinton was tried for impeachment but not convicted.
