Hillary Clinton didn't hold back when she was asked about Melania Trump's cyber-bullying initiative during an appearance on a late-night talk show.

Clinton appeared on Andy Cohen's talk show, Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,to promote a new documentary about her life when she was asked what she thought of the initiative.

"What do you honestly think of first lady Melania Trump's cyberbullying initiative?" Cohen asked her on the show.

The question was asked during a segment on the show called "Plead the Fifth", where the guest is asked three short questions.

"I think she should look closer to home" Clinton replied to Cohen, referencing President Donald Trump's social media posts.

The First Lady's 'Be Best' initiative works to promote well-being, online safety and opioid abuse among children. The initiative was launched in 2018, causing a few raised eyebrows.

So ridiculous. Greta must work on her Anger Management problem, then go to a good old fashioned movie with a friend! Chill Greta, Chill! https://t.co/M8ZtS8okzE— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 12, 201

Melania Trump has at times promoted anti-cyberbullying tips as part of her campaign saying she "wasn't surprised" at the criticism.

At the Family Online Safety Institute's annual conference in 2018 she said she would take the "negative words" she had received as motivation to help encourage responsible behaviour online.
