“She lies, she smears, she paints decent Americans as racists”, Trump said, in a Thursday address.

Trump’s campaign says the Republican nominee has never used the term “alt-right” and disavows “any groups or individuals associated with a message of hate”.
As I watched Clinton’s speech on YouTube, I also scanned an adjacent feed that quickly became a blur of racial slurs and insults. She reminded us that Trump removed black dealers from his casinos; that federal investigators said he refused to rent to blacks and Hispanics; and that he provided, Clinton said, “a steady stream of bigotry” that has energized a segment of America that no longer recognized itself or its interests in the GOP. “Trump’s missteps, stumbles and gaffes seem to outweigh Clinton’s shaky trust status and perceived shady dealings”.
“Republicans up and down the ticket are going to have to choose whether they want to be complicit in this lurch toward extremism or stand with voters who can’t stomach it”, he said.
And he appeared to pit one group of minorities against another when he said she “supports open borders that violate the rights of African-Americans”, suggesting that Mexicans are taking African-Americans’ jobs.
PALO ALTO, California Democrat Hillary Clinton will accuse Donald Trump of embracing a brand of USA political conservatism associated with white nationalism and nativism when she makes a Nevada campaign stop on Thursday. The Trump campaign in response accused Clinton of sinking to a “disgusting new low” after it released a video tying the Republican nominee to white supremacist movements, including the alt-right.

He has also made derogatory remarks against Muslims and African-Americans. Trump’s campaign has stumbled in recent weeks after a series of perceived gaffes.
“Voting against Donald Trump at this point is really treason to your heritage”, he said.
Trump has also called for banning Muslims from the USA on the sole basis of their religion and has stoked Islamophobic sentiment by alleging, “Islam hates us”.
“It draws a conclusion and makes a suggestion that my meetings with people like the late, great Elie Wiesel or Melinda Gates or the Nobel Prize victor Muhammad Yunus were somehow due to connections with the foundation instead of their status as highly respected global leaders”, Clinton continued.
Hillary Clinton phoned into AC360 on Wednesday night and wasted no time in demolishing Donald Trump’s new favorite talking point – that she is a “bigot”.
Donald Trump and his surrogates hint at a mysterious “illness” afflicting rival Hillary Clinton.
“Because she was not using a government account – or even a commercial account like Gmail – there was no archiving at all of her emails, so it is not surprising that we discovered emails that were not on Secretary Clinton’s system in 2014, when she produced the 30,000 emails to the State Department”.

He calls it “one of the most brazen attempts at distraction in the history of politics”.
