One of Donald Trump's Biggest Lies - Birtherism

Yesterday Donald Trump said Barack Obama was born in the U.S. and he hopes no one will talk about this any longer. He is wrong. He is lying.

He said Hillary Clinton started the birther movement when she was running against Barack Obama in the 2008 primary election. Even if he can find some obscure memo written by some low level person in Hillary's campaign, Hillary never said or implied that Barack Obama was born outside the U.S. 

At the same time, Donald Trump said that over and over for many years. He even said he has sent a team of investigators to Hawaii and "they cannot believe what they are finding." So why didn't he ever tell us "what they are finding?" Because he was lying the whole time.

He and many of his supporters cannot stand the fact that the president is African American. They feel they have to try to claim he isn't American to try to undermine him.

Barack Obama has been one of the best presidents in U.S. history. The economy is far better now than when he took office, millions more Americans have health insurance, and our allies overseas respect him, unlike their view of Donald Trump.
