Hillary Clinton is agreeing to a presidential debate on NY1, ahead of the New York primary April 19. In an interview with political reporter Josh Robin Sunday, the Democratic frontrunner also slams rival Bernie Sanders, answers whether her relationship is strained with Mayor Bill de Blasio — and uses Donald Trump's recent remarks on abortion to criticize the entire Republican field.

Hillary Clinton will debate on NY1.

 "I will be there. I think you've penciled it in for the 14th. I will be there."

Her democratic rival Bernie Sanders says he's busy with a rally on the 14th, and suggests four other days.

Clinton also agreed to debate on ABC.

Their race is closer than some expected. But Clinton suggests she's all but locked it up.

"I understand as we get closer to the end, there may be some anxiety and frustration and acting out on the other side — but he has to look at the facts," Clinton said of Sanders.

Fact one, Clinton says, she has a greater delegate lead than President Obama had in 2008. And fact two, she says, Sanders' record on guns merits him unworthy of New York's democratic vote.

"And his refusal to take on the NRA," Clinton said.

Sanders voted against numerous gun control measures, but says he's hardly a stooge of the gun lobby. 

Clinton defends her record as New York senator.

She was not a leading voice against the NYPD's controversial policy of stop and frisk, which affected more than a half million New Yorkers in her  last year in office — overwhelmingly black and Latino, and innocent.

"I have spoken out, I will continue to speak, and the courts were dealing as you know for a long period of time  with that particular procedure," Clinton said,

Clinton talked with us after addressing a large, predominately African American church in Southern Brooklyn. After Clinton left the stage, its influential reverend offered some strong words against Sanders' politics. 

"Socialism is great in theory," said Pastor A.R. Bernard, of the Christian Cultural Center. "But we've seen what it is in practice, with the birth and collapse of the Soviet Union in Russia."

We also asked Clinton about Donald Trump. He called for punishing women who get abortions, though later backpedalled.

Now Trump refuses to say whether he was ever responsible for a pregnancy that ended in abortion.

"I don't know anything about that," Clinton said. "I did find his statements on policy to be absolutely wrong."

And Clinton says he's not that far off from other Republican candidates.

As for New York State, which she says she loves, and New York City, which she says she adores, she says she wants to be a good partner.

And what of Mayor Bill de Blasio, whose later than expected endorsement drew attention?

"I have a great relationship with the mayor," Clinton said. "He's a friend of mine. We share a lot of the values."
