Former US Democratic presidential nominee and Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton has given some advice to Joe Biden ahead of the November battle for the White House between him and President Donald Trump.

BE FOCUSED

Former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton has some advice for Joe Biden on facing President Donald Trump: Be prepared to confront someone, unlike anyone you've ever dealt with before. And keep focused.

Speaking on MSNBC on Friday morning, the former first lady and secretary of State offered insight into challenging Trump as the only other person to have done so in a general election race. She said Trump's irregularity as a candidate meant her campaign had to navigate new waters, and she advised Biden to stay on top of and debunk misinformation.

DEBATE

She also said Biden should continue to stick to his message without getting thrown off by the latest Trump remark and to be prepared for a highly unusual debate experience.

"There was a lot to learn and it was a new experience for all of us," Clinton said. "There was so much going on under the surface on social media, and I don't think we did a good enough job being aware of and understanding the impact that such assertions and falsehoods could have."
