“During that meeting, Mr. Blumenthal and I met together in my office and he strongly urged me to investigate the exact place of President Obama’s birth, which he suggested was in Kenya. We assigned a reporter to go to Kenya, and that reporter determined that the allegation was false.
.... Trump was friendly with the Clintons - who don't like Obama and Hillary passed that little tidbit on to Trump - who ran with it and we see how that ended up.
this was 2008 so clinton and trump were definitely friendly at this time but it would be a few more years ( feb/march 2011 ) before trump entered the birther spotlight.
I am guessing it is safe to say that Blumenthal's efforts were fruitless since Obama was born in Hawaii.
As the OP link says, Blumenthal kept pushing the narrative even when he couldn't find evidence as he was Ready for Hillary in 2008.
However as we debated years this topic. there was just enough circumstantial information implicating Barry in Kenya. since Obama has the Docs he is ok until we can get rid of him. in January
Never understood why people defended his butt, but they did and somewhere in the back of our minds questions Obama's birth place.
Seems odd that they had this rumor (supposedly from Blumenthal), investigated it, but conveniently forgot to publish anything about it not being true or the source of the rumor until 2016.
Umm it was Trump who sent investigators to Hawaii to find the missing birth certificate. It was Trump who led the birther cause for many years. It was Trump who proclaimed on national TV that he thought Obama's birth certificate was phony.
It was Trump who got President Obama to present that certificate......image what he can get done when he is really in charge, unlike President Obama. I wonder how President Obama got into office without showing his certificate in the first place!
It was Trump who got President Obama to present that certificate......
well, trump and jerome corsi. corsi was scheduled to release his book "where's the real birth certificate" the week after obama released the "long-form"
Umm it was Trump who sent investigators to Hawaii to find the missing birth certificate. It was Trump who led the birther cause for many years. It was Trump who proclaimed on national TV that he thought Obama's birth certificate was phony.
And Hillary's campaign that brought it up in 2008. You can regurgitate all the official "Media Matters" and other George Soros funded "twistoids" all you want, that birther issue is still nothing but another attempt by the "Never Trump" bunch to discredit him.
No but Drumpf should after all he perpetuated the myth for many years.

It is getting hard to keep score.
Stop keeping score, stop reactive deflections, come to the light. The Ds are dishonest, the Rs are dishonest, and there is no way to keep score when the same team is playing against the public.
