Former President Bill Clinton made a campaign stop for his wife on Monday at an event at the Port of Palm Beach.

Last week, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said she would speak in Palm Beach County, but then canceled because of commitments in Nevada.

At one point during the rally a man wearing a Trump shirt held up a sign which said 'the silent majority stands with Trump.'

That prompted Clinton to say this about Trump, "I took his money for my foundation where I used it better than he's using it now, I guarantee you."

Clinton also told the crowd:

"Here's what I recommend. If you want to build a wall on the Rio Grande River and you want to send 11 million immigrants home then you should follow him (Trump) like Moses into the Promise Land. But, if you believe that President Obama saved us from a depression and now it's time to prove we can make America work for everybody again if we all work together, you should be for Hillary."

The man with the sign was escorted out of the rally.

 

Florida Primary on March 15

Tuesday is the last day to register to vote for the primary. Florida is a closed presidential preference primary, which means you must be registered as a Democrat or Republican to vote. 

If you’re registered as an independent and would like to register a party affiliation, Tuesday is the last day.

The Florida primary will be held on March 15.
