She said the overwhelming hostility directed towards the property tycoon “doesn’t reflect why Donald Trump is running and who he would be on the global stage on behalf of the Unites States of America.”

Conway defended Trump’s “America First” stance saying he was determined to stop the country’s jobs from going overseas and making sure Nato members pay their fair share.

And when asked about the Republican candidate’s temperament and whether he could be trusted with the nuclear codes, his loyal campaign adviser launched a verbal tirade against Hillary Clinton.

She slammed Clinton calling her record as Secretary of State "unremarkable to chequered" and questioned her judgement following the FBI's probe into her private email server.

French President Francois Hollande blasted the former Apprentice host claiming his divisive policies made people "want to retch".

According to a poll on the eve of the election, Trump trails the Democratic candidate by four percentage points.

Meanwhile, Theresa May has been criticised for wishing Trump good luck in tomorrow’s Presidential showdown with Clinton.

As race for the White House draws to a close a No 10 spokesman said on Monday morning “I think the Prime Minister would wish them both good luck.”

When probed on whether the PM approved of the controversial real estate mogul, Downing Street would only say: “The outcome of the presidential election is a matter for voters in America, of course.

“We will work with whoever is the next President of the United States.”

The change in tone came despite Mrs May launching a withering attack on the Republican hopeful late last year.

She said in December: “I think we all agree that the comments Donald Trump made in relation to Muslims were divisive, unhelpful and wrong.”
