In a hat tip to Iowa’s agriculture industry, Trump renewed his commitment to continuing a requirement that all gasoline sold contain an ethanol-based additive, an issue important to corn growers. He rallied much of his primary support with a controversial hardline tone against illegal immigrants and his plan to build a wall on the Mexican border.
In recent days, Trump has suggested he might be “softening”, saying Wednesday that he might be open to allowing at least some immigrants in the country illegally to stay, as long as they pay taxes.
“I am sure, and I am sure because I have a very strong foundation of understanding about the foundation” and the charitable work it has done, Clinton said in an interview with MSNBC on Friday. “There will be no amnesty”. They insisted that Trump has been “consistent” on his immigration policy.
Clinton’s campaign website touts a plan to increase funding to support farmers and ranchers in local food markets and regional food systems, saying she’ll create a “focused safety net to help family farms get through challenging times”.
Trump doubled down later in an interview broadcast on CNN Thursday night, saying he personally thinks Clinton is “totally bigoted”.
“Donald Trump has built his campaign on prejudice and paranoia”, she said.
In turn, Trump is trying to paint Clinton as the racist.
Trump countered her rhetoric on Friday by releasing a video showing Clinton in the 1990s discussing a crime bill and referring to “super-predators”, or at-risk youth she said needed to be brought under control. The video also shows Clinton’s former Democratic rival, Sen. Bernie Sanders, denouncing the phrase as “a racist term”. Clinton has since apologized.
Donald Trump releases his first television campaign ad, titled “Two Americas: Immigration”, one of two ads the campaign will air in five states this week. That revelation came a day after reports emerged that domestic violence charges were filed 20 years ago against Bannon following an altercation with his then-wife, Mary Louise Piccard.
He claims that his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton “wants to shut down family farms just like she wants to shut down the mines and the steelworkers”.
Trump says Clinton is trying to distract from questions swirling around donations to the Clinton Foundation and her use of her private email servers for official business while secretary of state.
Thursday’s data is also the first to incorporate voter feedback in the wake of an Associated Press article detailing Clinton’s close ties with big donors to the Clinton Foundation while she was secretary of state.

The AP’s lawyers late Friday formally asked the State Department to hasten that effort so that the department could provide all Clinton’s minute-by-minute schedules by October 15. The department did not immediately respond.
