She said: "I take no joy personal or political on what is happening to him, because it's a really sad reflection on our country and democracy that someone with his attitudes, his behaviour, his beliefs and record would be running for president again."
Clinton also praised the "hard work" that has taken place in Northern Ireland to make it a more peaceful place for all. Clinton, who is the first female Chancellor at Queen's University Belfast, said of the peace process in Northern Ireland: "I get to see and play a role in how it changes from a violent place that stunted peoples' growth to a place that is now so much more open and inviting.
