Donald Trump defends calling Hillary Clinton 'bigot'

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Thursday defended calling Hillary Clinton a "bigot" by arguing that her policies are destined to fail minority communities.

Trump and Clinton have been portraying the each other as discriminatory toward African-Americans, with Trump charging on Wednesday evening that the candidate herself was hateful, CNN reported.

"She is a bigot. She is selling them down the tubes because she's not doing anything for those communities. She talks a good game. But she does not do anything," he said.

"Her policies are bigoted because she knows they are not going to work," Trump added.
