The Post also reported that Malik Obama called now-deceased Libyan dictator Moammar Gaddafi one of his best friends – a potential source of awkwardness for Smith.Malik Obama, who was born in Kenya and is an American citizen, voiced his support for Trump in July, saying he hoped to meet the Republican nominee. Trump's feelings are mutual."I look very much forward to meeting and being with Malik," Trump said today. "He gets it far better than his brother."Malik Obama shares the same father with the president but has a different mother. He told the Post that he blames Clinton, who was secretary of state at the time Gadaffi was toppled and killed, for making the situation worse in Libya.Clinton invited both Cuban and Whitman, campaign spokeswoman Jennifer Palmieri said, and the duo agreed to attend. Whitman, a longtime Republican, endorsed Clinton earlierWhitman, a longtime Republican, endorsed Clinton earlier this year, saying in a statement that she would vote for and donate to Clinton. Since then, Whitman has headlined events for Clinton and contributed a considerable amount of money to her campaign.Cuban sat in the front row at Clinton's first debate against Trump, a move that was intended to shake the Republican nominee because the Dallas Mavericks owner has been so outspoken against the businessman.Trump lashed out at Cuban for attending the debate with Clinton, calling him "dopey."At the second presidential debate, Trump appeared with three women who have in the past accused former President Bill Clinton of inappropriate sexual behavior as part of an effort to rattle Hillary Clinton.Trump invited Kathleen Willey, Juanita Broaddrick, Paula  Jones and another woman, Kathy Shelton, whose alleged rapist was defended by Clinton as a young lawyer.
