You believe every filthy lie that the Liar-In-Chief tells you.
When are you going to stop lying?
Donald Trump repeated his debunked claim that Hillary Clinton started the rumors questioning whether President Barack Obama was born in the United States.
"Hillary Clinton and her campaign of 2008 started the birther controversy," Trump said in a 30-minute press conference Sept. 16, 2016. "I finished it."
Trump has repeatedly claimed that Clinton began the whole issue in the first place.
Trump said "Hillary is a birther" in February 2015 at CPAC, tweeted that "she was all in" in September 2015, and said "she brought it up years before it was brought up by me" on CNN in May 2016.
The morning of his press conference, Trump brought it up again on Fox Business.
PolitiFact and our friends at FactCheck.org and the Washington Post Fact-Checker have debunked this zombie claim multiple times.
There is no evidence that Clinton or her 2008 campaign ever floated the theory.
While Clinton supporters circulated the allegations the last time she ran for president, they had no ties to either the candidate or her staff.
The Sept. 15 Trump campaign statement linked to a 2007 strategy memo published in the Atlantic from former Clinton aide Mark Penn that advises pointing out Obama’s "lack of American roots."
While Penn suggests Clinton "own ‘American’ in our programs," that’s not the same thing as suggesting Clinton question Obama’s citizenship or birthplace.
The memo never advises that.
It also explicitly states, "We are never going to say anything about his background."
