NEW YORK (AP) — Republican Donald Trump appears to have questioned likely rival Hillary Clinton's religious commitment at a closed-door meeting in New York with evangelical leaders.

The presumptive GOP nominee says in a video clip of his remarks Tuesday that Clinton has "been in public eye for years and years, and yet there's no, there's nothing out there" when it comes to her religion.

Clinton was raised Methodist and occasionally quotes Bible verses and mentions her experiences in church.

In another video clip, Trump says instead of praying for all leaders, Christians should pray to get out the vote for someone who shares their concerns.

The footage of Trump speaking was posted on Twitter by an attendee, Bishop E.W. Jackson of Stand America.
