Hillary Clinton Allegedly Asked Tom Arnold To Release Trump Footage Days Before Election

The actor alleged Clinton called him two days before the US election, asking him to release footage of Trump.

Tom Arnold is currently competing on the Australian version of I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! He's not been shy about his famous friends, with many of the Aussies calling him a name-dropper.

"I had the Trump - him saying the N-word stuff. I had all the outtakes from Apprentice."

Fellow campmate Nazeem Hussain asked about the availability of the tape, but Arnold revealed he wasn't prepared to release it. Not even at the request of Hillary Clinton.

"I would have put [the tape] out with their permission, but by the time the election came around... Hillary Clinton called me two days before the election and said 'Please release that. The weight of the free world is on your shoulders'."

Arnold had previously spoken about the tapes during the election, yet this appears to be the first time Clinton's alleged plea has entered the story.

He also tweeted about the tapes last year, and why he wasn't planning on releasing them, claiming "Watergate-level journalists" were on the case.

"By the way," Arnold continued, "I don't think it would have worked... He already talked about sexually assaulting women - had 12, 15 cases against him".
