For the Record: Donald Trump, GOP nominee, still won't admit Obama was born the in U.S.
Donald Trump refused to admit that President Barack Obama was born in the United States in an interview published Thursday, reviving the patently false birther conspiracy theory he first peddled years ago.
Later, Trumps campaign released a statement that claimed the candidate did, in fact, believe Barack Obama was a natural-born U.S citizen. The only problem: The statement came from a spokesman, not Trump himself.
Don't believe the biased and phony media quoting people who work for my campaign, Trump wrote in May. The only quote that matters is a quote from me![
Last month, Hillary Clinton accused Trump of building a campaign on prejudice and paranoia, courting bigots and racists and conspiracy theorists of all types. In Thursdays interview in the Washington Post, Trump did little to deflate such claims./div]
