A Guide To The Many Conspiracy Theories Donald Trump Has Embraced
Birtherism

The patient zero of Trump conspiracy theories is his 2011 claim that President Obama was not born in the United States and, therefore, not eligible to be chief executive. Backers of that theory came to be known as "birthers" and, to be clear, Trump didn't start the rumors about Obama's place of birth. But he used his fame as a reality TV personality to insert the issue into the mainstream media conversation.

Yes nailed it
Trump is a fucking birther.....do you need any further proof of his lack of judgement?
I really don't need educating from Fauxcohontis.
She's nuttier than a squirrel's turd.
Far from it
She is a strong advocate for the rights of working Americans
What has she said that remotely qualifies as nutty?
This:
"'If we started in 1960, and we said [that] as productivity goes up...then the minimum wage was going to go up the same...if that were the case, the minimum wage today would be about $22 an hour"
Shit, go back even further, it might be $50/hr! She's beyond stupid. Google "crazy shit Elizabeth Warren said". There's a plethora of gems.

Childhood vaccines and autism
Trump has repeatedly embraced the discredited theory that childhood vaccinations can lead to autism. In the second GOP presidential primary debate, hosted by CNN in September 2015, Trump didn't back down on the claim even when confronted with evidence that vaccines are safe:
"Just the other day, 2 years old, 2 1/2 years old, a child, a beautiful child went to have the vaccine, and came back, and a week later got a tremendous fever, got very, very sick, now is autistic."

The Sept. 11 attacks — "Thousands and thousands" of Muslims cheering in the streets
Campaigning in Alabama last November, Trump claimed that Muslims in New Jersey celebrated the attacks on the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001:
"Hey, I watched when the World Trade Center came tumbling down. And I watched in Jersey City, N.J., where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down. Thousands of people were cheering. So something's going on. We've got to find out what it is."

Antonin Scalia's death: "They say they found a pillow on his face"
Just days after the death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia at a ranch in Texas this past February, Trump weighed in on claims that Scalia had been murdered. In an interview with radio host Michael Savage, Trump said, "They say they found a pillow on his face, which is a pretty unusual place to find a pillow," before saying he was unable to respond further.
The Presidio County District Attorney cited a letter from Scalia's doctor that said the 79-year-old justice suffered from a variety of ailments that very likely contributed to his death and there was nothing suspicious about his body when it was discovered on Feb. 13, 2016, according to the Associated Press.
Trump also suggested, without evidence, that President Obama did not attend Scalia's funeral because Obama might be a secret Muslim. Scalia was Catholic.

Ted Cruz's father might have had a role in the JFK assassination
On the cusp of wrapping up the Republican nominating contest earlier this month, Trump went to the well of one of the most enduring conspiracy theories in American life: the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963.
Citing an as-yet unsubstantiated story in the National Enquirer, Trump said in an interview on Fox News that that his GOP rival Ted Cruz's father, Rafael Cruz, was spotted with JFK assassin Lee Harvey Oswald:
"What was he doing with Lee Harvey Oswald shortly before the death, before the shooting? It's horrible."

Vince Foster's death
This week, Trump also embraced the ur-Clinton conspiracy theory: the 1993 death of White House aide Vince Foster. Foster was an Arkansas ally of the Clintons' who served as deputy White House counsel at the start of the first Clinton term. He was found dead in Virginia in July 1993.

Foster's death sparked years of conspiracy-theorizing from Clinton's opponents about whether the facts behind his death were covered up to hide financial misbehavior. Foster's death was cited in investigations into the Clintons' real estate investments with the Whitewater Development Corp. (yes, that Whitewater). Multiple investigations by various federal agencies and independent counsels throughout the rest of the 1990s concluded that Foster's death was a suicide and that was he was clinically depressed when he died.
But in an interview published by the Washington Post on Monday, Trump dismissed those investigations and claimed that the circumstances of Foster's death were "very fishy":
" 'He had intimate knowledge of what was going on,' Trump said, speaking of Foster's relationship with the Clintons at the time. 'He knew everything that was going on, and then all of a sudden he committed suicide.'

What she may have nailed him well an truly on is if the charge that he wanted the crash so he could make money.
"I sort of hope that happens, because then people like me would go in and buy," he says. "If there is a bubble burst as they call it, you can make a lot of money."
Donald Trump Accused of Cheering on Housing Collapse and Trying to Protect His Golf Course from Global Warming
But she scored because if Clinton surrogates can engage Donald in a war of 'he said she said" then Donald's talking points will never become a coherent set of policies to accomplish "make America great again."

I worked for a $2 an hour minimum wage in the mid 70s and it would be worth $15 an hour today

So which is worse - the people who profited from the fake housing boom...or the people who orchestrated it? The people who used the system to get rich...or the people that wrote the laws that made that possible?

The charge against Trump is that he publicly said he wanted the crash because he could make money off of it.

And what caused the crash was not laws, or CRIA, but a lack of regulation on what due diligence had to be made into borrowers ability to repay
