        but not irresponsible to build a campaign based off a lie about Obama's citizenship for 5 years?

        That was also (as I said at the time) wrong.

        balance is refreshing, thanks. But I'm sure we agree the circumstances surrounding PEOTUS & his behavior are the drivers

        Matt, how many times did you go on air over 8 years to comment on how it was irresponsible for Trump to claim Obama was illegitimate prez?

        😂 if there ever was an election to question it is THIS one! It's naive NOT to question it.

        You are overlooking of course that Rep John Lewis is always on the right side of history.

        I dunno....legally yes. trying to establish Trump is "politically" legitimate isn't filling up DC to adore our new CIC.

        Nothing to see here: Russian hack/wiki leaks/FBI loses control of NY office/Comey abandons policies. All directed at HRC. Sad
