4. Birther Movement
That leads us to the biggest and most public of “fake news” pushed by Trump. Starting in 2011 and carrying through to at least 2016, Donald Trump has been a large part of the “birther movement” against President Barack Obama. The premise of this “news” was that Obama had faked his United States birth certificate and was instead born outside the US. Trump regularly accused Obama’s 2008 presidential rival, former Sec. of State Hillary Clinton, for the start of the movement, but he was never too shy to jump on the bandwagon.
Eventually, Trump himself would admit that he believes that Obama was born in the US, but that didn’t stop him, or his ego, from being proud of pushing the nonsense for nearly a decade.
Well, I’m the one that got him to put up his birth certificate. Hillary Clinton was unable to get there and I will tell you she tried. And you look at her campaign and everybody knows it happened. I would say that pretty much everybody agrees with me, but she tried and she was unable to do it and I tried and I was able to do it, so I’m very proud of that.
