“From the start, Donald Trump has built his campaign on prejudice and paranoia”, Clinton said during her speech at Truckee Meadows Community College in Reno, Nevada. “I call on Hillary Clinton to disavow this video and her campaign for this sickening act that has no place in our world”, he said. “And I want to look into it because I have heard it from more and more people”.
