I've spoken to people who seriously believe he's a secret Muslim born in Kenya. The fact that our president-elect spent years pushing this completely fabricated lie to further his own ends didn't help.
Once Trump finally dropped the birther lie in September of this year (seriously, he spent 5 years trumpeting that lie) he came up with the new lie: Hillary started it. Neither Clinton nor her campaign ever publicly questioned Obama's citizenship or birthplace.
Whatever people's partisan feelings, surely Trump has established a track record that what he says is relatively very unlikely to be true. The above statement comes from Trump.
No, it doesn't. As far as I can tell, Trump claimed HRC (or her campaign) originated the myth. This is different than her supporters, which is my claim. [This article][0] supports my point.
