Well...

Trump said that Clinton started the birther movement and "was all in."

It’s an interesting bit of history that the birther movement appears to have begun with Democrats supporting Clinton and opposing Obama. But Trump, and others who have made this claim, neglect to mention that there is no direct tie to Clinton or her 2008 campaign.

The story appears to have started with supporters of Clinton, an important distinction.

Trump goes on to completely distort the chain of events by claiming Clinton "was all in" on the birther movement. Most of the talk started after Clinton suspended her presidential campaign. And the only thing she officially has ever done is deny any accusation of starting a whisper campaign.

We rate this claim False.

Did Hillary Clinton start the Obama birther movement? | PolitiFact

Now I am clearly not a supporter of Hillary Clinton. But the fact is that she never said anything on 60 minutes about Obama not being born in the USA. That is apparently a myth.

Here is the 60 minutes clip:




The birther issue did start from Clinton supporters, but until clear evidence that Hillary was involved is presented...even I believe she should be given the benefit of the doubt.

Obama himself spread it. Back when it suited his purpose to be exotic.
 
Therefore____________________________?

A. Clinton is evil for starting it but anyone on the right who pushes it is innocent.

B. I know two wrongs don't make a right, but I'm going to engage in extreme hypocrisy because I want to yell about Clinton.

C. Wait, what? The thread lied? BLlllalalrhghglblhrarg.....
