Trump accuses Clinton of 'bigotry,' says she opposes police
Source: MSN/Associated Press
WEST BEND, Wis. Donald Trump on Tuesday accused rival Hillary Clinton of "bigotry" and being "against the police," claiming that she and other Democrats have "betrayed the African American community" and pandered for votes.
"We reject the bigotry of Hillary Clinton, which panders to and talks down to communities of color and sees them only as votes that's all they care about," the GOP nominee said in remarks delivered not far from Milwaukee the latest city to be rocked by violence in the wake of a police shooting.
Trump, who is lagging behind in the polls, accused Clinton of being on the side of the rioters, declaring: "Our opponent Hillary would rather protect the offender than the victim."
"The riots and destruction that have taken place in Milwaukee is an assault on the right of all citizens to live in security and to live in peace," he said.

Trump forgot to mention how many million POC climbed out of poverty last time we had a Clinton in the White House, to watch the next president (Bush) push them back down.
Amazing all the stuff he left out. Then gushing on Rudy. Get the bag!

Reagan was a racist monster who made jokes about AIDS victims while they died while he did nothing for years. I really loved how he closed the mental institutions too. All them disable folks now got a stolen shopping cart, and a check once a month!

I'm thinking it might not work as planned anymore.
