    Instead, he lied about his role in the conspiracy theory, and made unfounded accusations about Hillary Clinton's involvement.

    Donald Trump did not apologize Friday for driving one of the uglier, most blatantly racist narratives in American political culture during the Obama presidency. The most prominent proponent of the birther movement, and now the GOP presidential nominee, instead lied about his role in the conspiracy theory and, without any evidence, attempted to pin the blame on Hillary Clinton.

    When will he apologize to the president for spreading these hateful lies about him? Does he think simply saying "oh yah ignore what I said for years" will make it go away? Who on earth thought this was a good idea? If wasn't going to apologize or explain he was better off continuing to hide from it.

    I didn't say anything about Clinton saying Obama was born in Kenya. What a deplorable inference on your part.

    When Trump lies, which is pretty much whenever he opens his mouth and whenever he refuses to be transparent, he is merely being true to who he is. It's quite amusing that right wingers bash Hillary and label her a liar and then ironically have the audacity to support a habitual liar such as Trump.

    Trump is a type A male so he doesn't apologize. There's no apologizing in politics unless you're Obama and you go around the world bowing to foreign leaders.

    The *******s thought Trump would drop to his knees and apologize for dissing The One about his birth cert. How little they knew and how much they don't know what they don't know they don't know.

    Their reactions remind me of the cons reactions to the fear of Ebola a while back when Obama sent our Military to assist. Cons were (*)(*)(*)(*)ting their beds petrified of getting Ebola!

    LMAO!

    They were lies or he has an extremely limited ability to absorb data and use logical thought....oh wait.....you are correct they probably were not lies.

    Trump will NEVER apologize because he is never wrong. He will also build a wall that is impossible to build, Deport millions to countries that do not want them, rebuild a military that does not need to be rebuilt, ban a religion in a country that is built on not messing with religion, make millions of jobs out of thin air and take pictures of bigfoot riding a unicorn.

    Oh, stop the nonsense! Trump did not originate the birther movement. Hillary did in 2008 and if you don't believe me, ask Obama. He accused her of doing it and they had an argument about it. Your own kind started it. Hillary is a DIRTY player. I have said this at least 5 times, but you only hear what fits your narrative...

    Trump isn't saying anything stupid, so they're bringing up old news. Like the birther accusations are going to get her 8 points back. Lol. All they're doing is reminding some voters why they should vote for Trump. Vote, white man, vote. Early and often.

    Hilary did no such thing, trump is the only mayor candidate who was ever part of such something crazy. Hell even there he lied and lied claiming he had proof.

    Someon sent an email and got fired for it. That excuses trumps lies how?

    - - - Updated - - -

    Someone who the Hillary campaign fired. How does that justify Donald lying for years and never apologizing?

    Where is Obamas apology?
