WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump is accusing rival Hillary Clinton of “bigotry” — a claim Clinton’s campaign has thrown back in Trump’s face.

Trump says at a rally in Charlotte that Clinton “sees communities of color only as votes and not as human beings worthy of a better future.”

He claims that she and other Democrats have failed to do enough to improve the lives of minorities and those who live in inner cities.

Trump says that, if African-American voters give him a chance by giving him their vote, “the result for them will be amazing.”

He asks, “What do you have to lose by trying something new?”

Trump is trailing Clinton by vast margins among minority voters.
