Donald Trump has directly called Hillary Clinton “the devil” as the Republican steps up his increasingly heated rhetoric against his Democrat opponent.

Trump has faced perhaps the most sustained criticism of the election cycle over his continued disparagement of the Khans, whose son Humayun was killed in 2004, at age 27, by a vehicle bomber in Iraq.
“While our party has bestowed upon him the nomination, it is not accompanied by unfettered license to defame those who are the best among us”, McCain said.
“That’s politics at its lowest”, Trump told reporters shortly before taking the stage, voicing anger that people weren’t allowed into the building, though city and convention officials told reporters later the Trump campaign had agreed to the 1,000-person limit when they secured the space. Almost half of primary election voters did vote for former candidates, and these are the people Trump and Clinton need to swing over to their side in upcoming months of their campaigns.
Trump steered clear of any mention of Khizr Khan, a Muslim man who spoke at last week’s Democratic National Convention and offered Trump a copy of the U.S. Constitution after describing how his son, an Army captain, died in a vehicle bombing trying to save other troops.
‘She’s the devil. He’s made a deal with the devil.
Meanwhile, Warren Buffett appeared alongside Mrs Clinton on Monday night – and challenged Mr Trump to release his tax returns.
Mr Trump has said that they can not be made public until the financial authorities have completed an audit.
“Further, a majority of Clinton’s backers now say their vote is more to show support for her than to oppose Trump, a sharp shift since early May”, CNN posted on its website. However, Clinton may also be benefiting from Trump’s comments over the weekend about the parents of Cpt.
“In his latest foray of insults, Mr. Trump has attacked the parents of a slain USA soldier”.
Ohio Governor John Kasich tweeted: “There’s only one way to talk about Gold Star parents: with honour and respect”.
He added: “I think Trump is a national embarrassment”.
Now, he’s sparring with an American Muslim family whose son was killed in Iraq. “It was respectful. It did express condolences to the family for their loss”.
Pew Research Center’s 2014 Religious Landscape Study found that 0.9% of United States adults identify themselves as Muslims. A billionaire businessman, Trump already has contributed about $50 million to his effort. That survey also found that a majority of US Muslims (63%) are immigrants.
Donald Trump claims that 20 people have given Hillary Clinton a total of $60 million and he would like to know who those people are.
