Hillary Clinton says Donald Trump campaign built on prejudice

“Donald Trump has built his campaign on prejudice and paranoia”, Clinton said in a scathing speech in Nevada. The Democratic nominee, who has been working to paint her opponent as fearmongering and racist, also said that Trump’s “disregard for the values that make our country great is profoundly risky”.

But Clinton said a man with a history of racial discrimination, who traffics in dark conspiracy theories drawn from the pages of supermarket tabloids “should never run our government or command our military”. Ask yourself: “If he doesn’t respect all Americans, how can he serve all Americans?”

Trump has accused Clinton of bigotry before, but those comments did not land with the same impact.

Clinton’s aim is to diminish Trump in the eyes of Americans uncomfortable voting for someone who appeals to racists, perhaps even winning over some moderate Republicans.

Trump offered a prebuttal in New Hampshire earlier Thursday, saying that Clinton “paints decent Americans as racists”.

“To Hillary Clinton, and to her donors and advisers, pushing her to spread smears and her lies about decent people, I have three words. shame on you”. “Hillary Clinton isn’t just attacking me, she’s attacking all of the decent people of all backgrounds – doesn’t matter – of all backgrounds who support this incredible, once in a lifetime movement”. “They are failing so badly”. “She should be ashamed of herself!” But as she well knows, the Republican Party has engaged in a devil’s bargain with the remnants of white supremacy over many decades. “I don’t at all”.

A new survey of Florida’s Jewish voters has found that Hillary Clinton is leading Donald Trump by a margin of 66 to 23. “Anti-Muslim, anti-Immigrant, anti-women ideas — all key tenets making up an emerging racist ideology known as the ‘Alt-Right'”. Bannon has said that his former publication is “the platform of the alt-right”.

In a speech at Reno in Nevada, the US Democratic presidential candidate blasted her conservative rival as a divisive figure stoking racist groups.

Trump also says Clinton is trying to distract from questions swirling around donations to The Clinton Foundation and her exclusive use of her private email servers for official business while secretary of state.

“There’s always been a paranoid fringe in our politics, steeped in racial resentment”.

“The fact that Euro-nationalism and all the horrendous bigotry that is tied to it has not just become an unwelcome visitor at the door of a major political party, but an occupant of the household, is of relevance not only for those partisans trying to defeat Republicans, but to those within the GOP who are alarmed that their presence is antithetical to their principles as well”, Levin said.

The GOP nominee, who had pre-emptively called Clinton a “bigot who sees people of color only as votes” at a MS rally the day before, repeated that charge on Thursday.

‘We hope they’re listening, ‘ she said of black Americans.

“We have our disagreements”. “I’m honored to have their support”. It may make it easier for the former secretary of state to negotiate with Republicans if she is elected president – and ensure that election is more likely. The video also shows U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders, Clinton’s main opponent in the Democratic primary this year, calling that phrase a “racist term”.

To refer to the modern Republican Party as the “Party of Lincoln” is a political travesty, as is the attempt to present the Trump phenomenon as something totally alien to the political establishment in general and the Republican Party in particular.

How do alt-right leaders feel about Clinton’s statements?

It’s a telling development – and one that plays directly into a rapidly unfolding Clinton campaign strategy to drive a wedge between mainstream Republicans and their presidential candidate. But they have been noticeably quiet in defending Trump against Clinton’s charges of racism in his campaign. “And if there were no evidence. that there was any conflict, I would say, ‘Look, I appreciate the work that they did, ‘” Clinton said.

But in an interview with CNN on Wednesday, Clinton was defiant in her characterization.

“Donald Trump has shown us who he is, and we ought to believe him”. He is taking a hate movement mainstream. “He’s brought it into his campaign”, Clinton told CNN’s Anderson Cooper.

Dr. Ben Carson (L) and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump (C) and Pierry Benjamin (R) attend a round table with the Republican Leadership Initiative at Trump Tower in the Manhattan borough of NY, U.S., August 25, 2016. Ted Cruz’s name on her ballot said Clinton was held to a lower standard. Her campaign chalks the issues up to a smaller than average number of college educated white voters.
