He thought Obama wasn't born in the United States, he thought Ted Cruz's dad helped kill President Kennedy, he thought Pizza Gate was a thing, he thinks Obama bugged his condo . . . what would it take for him to stop and say "I might need to check out a real source on this?" before tweeting something out? The earth is flat? George Washington was a Morlock? Water is dry?
I think you could really dupe him into believing anything.

No, no, you have to understand that THIS is how Donald Trump has operated his entire life. He has always thrown out outrageous statements (doesn't matter that they have no basis in truth) and he somehow convinces the weak minded he is dealing with that he is telling the truth. Done it all his life.
He knows damn well that Obama was born here, but look at the press he got out of it and how long he kept that myth alive. Same with Cruz' dad, and Pizza Gate. He simply jumped on those issues to get the news people to bring his name up, over and over. He played them like a fiddle, and he got billions of dollars in advertising for free. THAT is what he is good at doing, conning people.
If you look at someone like Charles Manson, and wonder how anyone could be convinced by this crazy SOB to do the things they did for him.........look no further than Donald Trump and his cult for the answer. Some people just have this natural talent for being able to read others and exploit their weaknesses and give them hope. If DT has one skill, that is it. He makes Manson look like a beginner.
