Trump Doesn’t Correct Man Who Claims Obama is Muslim, Hillary Had Doubts Too

The newest campaign snit which the media is promulgating occurred at a Donald Trump rally in New Hampshire on Thursday night, when an audience member who believes that President Obama is a Muslim asked Trump what he would do to get rid of “Muslim training camps.” Here’s the exchange:

Man: We have a problem in this country, it’s called Muslims. We know our current president is one. You know, he’s not even an American. Birth certificate, man.
Trump: Right. We need this question? This first question.
Man: But any way. We have training camps… where they want to kill us.
Trump: Uh huh.
Man: That’s my question: When can we get rid of them?
Trump: We’re going to be looking at a lot of different things. You know, a lot of people are saying that, and a lot of people are saying that bad things are happening out there. We’re going to look at that and plenty of other things.

Personally, I think this exchange says more about the man in the audience than Trump himself, who seemed a bit disconcerted to have his first audience question from someone who seems to peddle in conspiracies. Even Trump opponent Senator Rand Paul, whose father Ron Paul tended to attract conspiracy adherents, said after a town hall in Las Vegas that he’d “never heard of anything like camps” for terrorists in America.

But what did the media decide to latch onto?
