65. It was Trump's OPINION that Barack Obama was born in Kenya.

He spoke of it often, even though it wasn't true. That makes it a LIE. He was allowed to continue LYING about Obama being born in Kenya because he was given a microphone because of his privileged celebrity status. See how that works?

Birthers and Tea Partiers have OPINIONS about Barack Obama, but when the facts and evidence to the contrary is glaringly against your opinion, to keep repeating it is a LIE. She already pulled this with Nader. The two parties are NOT the same. That is a LIE. What makes her worse is that her LIES are actually hurting everyday people now who need healthcare or the DACA people who face deportation because she wanted to have a revolution and be part of some popularity movement that was not centered in reality.

Jill Stein is also a liar and a fraud. She actively demonizes Democrats for anything under the sun, then pals around with Russian oligarchs. WTF.

FUCK Susan Sarandon, and FUCK Jill Stein.
