Trump fails to correct ‘birther’
ROCHESTER, N.H. — Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump drew fire from Democrats and some Republicans Friday after declining to correct a questioner at a town hall event who wrongly said President Barack Obama is Muslim. “He knew, or he should have known, that what that man was asking was not only way out of bounds, it was untrue,” Hillary Rodham Clinton, the Democratic front-runner, said after a campaign event in New Hampshire. “He should have from the beginning repudiated that kind of rhetoric, that level of hatefulness.” The question to Trump came Thursday night at a town hall in Rochester, New Hampshire. The first person the billionaire real estate mogul called on said, “We have a problem in this country. It’s called Muslims.” “We know our current president is one,” the man continued. “You know he’s not even an American”/Washington Post. More here.
