Clinton: Don't get swayed by GOP 'fear tactics and scare mongering'

Reno, Nevada (CNN)

Hillary Clinton asked voters here in Nevada on Monday to not be swayed by Republicans "fear tactics and scare mongering and inflammatory rhetoric" on terrorism.

Clinton's comments come days after Republican front-runner Donald Trump suggested that he saw video of "thousands of people ... cheering" in New Jersey as the World Trade Center towers fell during the September 11, 2001, terrorist attack. Trump has also suggested compelling all Muslims in America to register for a national database.

"I don't think it is smart for us to act like we are waging war on every Muslim in the world," Clinton said. "That is not smart."

Clinton, who appeared energized by the crowd on Monday night, cast the 2016 election as one that will decide whether Republicans "get their way again."

"I want Democrats to vote for me, but I want sensible Republicans to vote for me, too," Clinton said. "The only way Republicans can win this election is if they can induce a state of amnesia in all of us."
