She suggested that President Trump and his allies were using Twitter and other social media to sidetrack Americans' attention from the investigations into the influence of Russian Federation during the election campaign or the Republican health care bill. "I think it's pretty hard not to".

Mrs Clinton talked at length about Russian involvement in the 2016 presidential contest, referring to U.S. intelligence assessments that Russia not only meddled in the election, but did so to help Mr Trump defeat her.

Hillary Clinton said on Wednesday that she has no plans to run for office again, but she plans to remain involved in civic life, particularly helping the Democrats' efforts to regain control of the House in 2018.

She said there had been a "marriage" of people who spread false stories with Republicans who had detailed voter data.

Clinton snapped back at the president in a brief message on Twitter.

Trump used the non-existent word in an incomplete sentence tweeted early on Wednesday.

The tweet was eventually deleted but Mr Trump showed he could poke fun at himself.

However, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer offered his own interesting take on the word's meaning - it might not be a typo for "coverage" or any other actual word with a similar spelling, but a possible code word whose meaning is only known to Trump and his inner circle. He gave no further explanation.

Trump has said there was no collusion between his campaign and Russian Federation.

Clinton was pressed by another journalist on stage, Kara Swisher, who asked: "But you're leaning Trump?" Clinton told the gathering that she was responsible for every decision the campaign made, though she did not believe they caused her surprise loss. "Dump it now, '" she said.

As she had done previously, Clinton also said that then-FBI director James Comey dealt her campaign "a tremendous hit" when he briefly re-opened an investigation into her use of a private email account and server just days before the election.

After playing a clip of Clinton's comments, CNN anchor John King joked, "What do we make of this - besides the fact that the 2016 campaign will apparently never end?"

"He dumps that on me on October 28, and I immediately start falling", she said.

Kucinich said that Clinton might be "burning bridges" with members of her party with her remarks.
