Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump today slammed his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton, saying her victory in the upcoming US presidential elections would result in "four more years of Obama" and the "spread of ISIS".
"Let me tell you, if Hillary Clinton gets elected, we have got four more years of (Barack) Obama. We have a disaster. We have ISIS all over," Trump said during his address in North Carolina.
"We won't win anymore. And your taxes are going up. And she wants to double up and triple up on Obamacare, which has to be repealed and replaced. It is a disaster," he said.
Trump, 70, said he will renegotiate NAFTA and stand up for "foreign cheating" to stop the jobs from leaving the US.
"We are going to start making things in America again. We are going to start making things in North Carolina again. We are bringing back our jobs. America first," he said.
Noting that he would create an "America Desk" to bring all trade related issues at one point, Trump said all trade policy will be consolidated into one office.
"It will report to a thing called the American Desk," Trump said.
He said the mission of the desk will be to protect the economic interest of the American worker and national interest of the US.
"We are losing our manufacturing all over the country," he alleged.
Trump alleged that Clinton allowed the release of thousands of criminals as their home countries would not take them back.
"They don't want to take back killers and drug dealers and all of the people that we are sending back. It was just reported, and Hillary took it - she said, bring them back, bring them back. They won't take them," he said.

Rudy Giuliani, a former New York mayor and Trump aide, also supported the move. "Look there's a tradition in American politics that after you win an election, you sort of put things behind you," he told reporters after meeting Trump.
"If that's the decision he reached, that's perfectly consistent with sort of a historical pattern of things come up, you say a lot of things, even some bad things might happen, and then you can sort of put it behind you in order to unite the nation," he said.
