In a series of speeches this week, Trump has asked black Americans what they would lose by voting for him, painting the collective community as one ravaged by poverty, crime and hopelessness. On Thursday, Clinton released a scathing online ad that featured members of the Ku Klux Klan talking about their support for Trump. > [](https://twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/768823064033308673) Trump has not been shy about criticizing Clinton either, [calling her a “bigot”](http://time.com/4465543/donald-trump-hillary-clinton-bigot-mississippi-rally/) who “sees people of color only as votes” during a rally in Jackson, Miss., on Wednesday. In a statement released by the Trump campaign, [pastor Mark Burns](http://time.com/trump-pastor/), who is black, called the ad “a disgusting new low.” And during remarks delivered shortly before Clinton’s speech, the Republican nominee argued the former Secretary of State should be ashamed of accusing his supporters of being racist. “To Hillary Clinton, and to her donors and advisors, pushing her to spread her smears and her lies about decent people, I have three words. I want you to hear these words, and remember these words: Shame on you,” Trump said. And yet, Clinton didn’t back down. She placed Trump’s stances outside of both Republican values and American values, claiming the country’s fringe element has never had a representative in its major party nominee. Trump’s recent hire of Breitbart CEO Stephen Bannon was a major target for Clinton who argued that it amounts to a “fringe element” taking over the GOP. “Of course there’s always been a paranoid fringe in our politics, steeped in racial resentment,” Clinton said. “But it’s never had the nominee of a major party stoking it, encouraging it, and giving it a national megaphone. Until now.” Clinton suggested that a vote for her would be a vote against “prejudice and paranoia” and called the election a “moment of reckoning” for the country. “This is a moment of reckoning for every Republican dismayed that the party of Lincoln has become the party of Trump. It’s a moment of reckoning for all of us who love our country and believe that America is better than this.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4466218/hillary-clinton-reno-donald-trump-hate-groups/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4466218/hillary-clinton-reno-donald-trump-hate-groups/"},"headline":"Hillary Clinton: Donald Trump 'Taking Hate Groups Mainstream'","datePublished":"2016-08-25T19:06:27.000Z","dateModified":"2023-12-13T03:32:04.000Z","description":"Hillary Clinton will will argue Donald Trump is \"taking hate groups mainstream and helping a radical fringe take over\" the Republican Party","url":"https://time.com/4466218/hillary-clinton-reno-donald-trump-hate-groups/","keywords":["Hillary Clinton","2016 Election","Donald Trump","Nevada","campaign ads"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6f759f4f0307d8ca/6988a3bdfb4eac1b7f88ee23/gettyimages-591564768-copy.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Maya Rhodan","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/maya-rhodan/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6f759f4f0307d8ca/6988a3bdfb4eac1b7f88ee23/gettyimages-591564768-copy.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton speaks to supporters at a rally at John Marshall High School on August 17, 2016 in Cleveland, Ohio.","caption":"Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton speaks to supporters at a rally at John Marshall High School on August 17, 2016 in Cleveland, Ohio.","creditText":"Jeff Swensen—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4466218/hillary-clinton-reno-donald-trump-hate-groups/","name":"Hillary Clinton: Donald Trump 'Taking Hate Groups Mainstream'"}}]}] ```
