Pharmaceutical executive Martin Shkreli trolled Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton after she was forced to leave a 9/11 ceremony after overheating Sunday.
The embattled former CEO of Turning Pharmaceuticals – who has been widely criticized for marking up a life-saving drug used to treat cancer and AIDS by 5,000 percent – periscoped the incident outside her daughter Chelsea Clinton’s New York apartment on Twitter.
“Are you alive? Do you need pharmabro’s help?” He yelled at the candidate, followed by a chant of: “Drop out.”
Shkreli later tweeted he attempted to track down the candidate in Manhattan for two hours before he finally found her

Clinton’s doctor said the overheating was due to a case of pneumonia, to which he advised he adjust her schedule accordingly.
