US: Trump promises to reject bigotry and hatred if elected President

Washington, Aug 17 (IBNS): As the US Presidential election is nearing, the promises are getting thicker from both the sides, with Donald Trump, the Republican nominee stating that he will reject bigotry and oppression if elected President.

Promising to be the greatest champion, Trump posted on Facebook, "This is my pledge to the American people: as your President I will be your greatest champion. I will fight to ensure that every American is treated equally, protected equally, and honored equally."

"We will reject bigotry and hatred and oppression in all its forms, and seek a new future built on our common culture and values as one American people," his post stated.

Addressing a gathering on Tuesday, Trump said, "To every parent who dreams for their children, and to every child who dreams for their future, I say these words to you tonight: I’m with you, I will fight for you, and I will win for you."

"Together, We Will Make America Strong Again. We Will Make American Safe Again. And We Will Make America Great Again. Thank you, and God Bless," he added.

Calling the prevalent system corrupt, Trump said that the system is preventing him from doing work.

"I’m not part of the corrupt system. In fact, the corrupt system is trying to stop me. I’ve been paying my own way. The voters in the Republican Party this year defied the donors, the consultants, the power brokers, and choose a nominee from outside our failed and corrupt and broken system," he said.

Continuing his attack against fellow nominee Hillary Clinton, Trump accused the Democratic Party of rigging.

"The other party – the Democratic Party – nominated the personification of special interest corruption. The Democratic Party rigged the nomination to give it to Hillary Clinton, thus giving the soul of their party this year to the special interests," he said.

"I am running to listen to your voice, to hear your cries for help. The quiet voices in our society, not the loudest demonstrators, need to have their demands heard.

Jobs. Safety. Opportunity. Fair and equal representation," Trump added.

Trump also accused Clinton of keeping bias towards people of colour and viewing them as mere voters.

"We reject the bigotry of Hillary Clinton which panders to and talks down to communities of color and sees them only as votes, not as individual human beings worthy of a better future. She doesn’t care at all about the hurting people of this country, or the suffering she has caused them," he said.
