There is this accusation from Asher which has not been substantiated. Haven't heard from Blumenthal on this one. Frankly, looking at his history, he seems to get tangled in controversy.
But let's say the incident happened. Blumenthal WAS a Clinton confident. But the campaign never took the bait. The campaign, let alone Clinton, never mentioned a birther concern. Trump lied.
But looking at what Trump implied we see he says he followed Clinton's lead. He followed up on the story Clinton started. If he is such a leader, why is he putting any part of the blame on Clinton? He is citing Clinton as somehow causing him to lead a 5 year campaign of lies?
Trump also claimed that he had "very credible sources" that would reveal Obama was born in Kenya. What happened to that? He has told us (and his supporters have confirmed), that he engages the best people. What happened here?
