Hillary never started Birtherism, nor did her campaign.

Trump got nailed on this one.

Hey CNN etc, there's this awesome craft
called journalism that could really help you
with your job. It's not very easy but I hear
that it can reveal truths and stuff. Give it
a try and let us know how it works out.

They are running free Trump campaign ads, which is what they have been doing for months.

Clinton and America are being played by CNN and their candidate Trump.
