But Trump had a point.
As The Nation reported in 2011, many of the shelters built by the Clinton Foundations in Haiti following the devastating earthquake the previous year were plagued with problems including being laced with formaldehyde that caused health problems for the residents. The foundation said that the trailers they provided in Haiti, which have been used as classrooms, would also be “hurricane-proof.” But experts have said that they were structurally unsound, and posed a danger to residents.
Clinton did not reference the trailer scandal, instead boasting that, “Bill and I have been involved in trying to help Haiti for many years. The Clinton Foundation raised $30 million to help Haiti after the catastrophic earthquake and all of the terrible problems the people there had.”
