McCain famously defended Obama against conspiracy theories when he carried the Republican presidential banner in , the Daily Beast reported.

At multiple campaign events, the Arizona Senator forcefully pushed back against his own supporters who questioned Obama’s religion, race, and loyalty to the US.

Democrat Clinton, too, never attempted to force Obama to release his birth certificate, contrary to Trump’s claim.

Trump, on the other hand, first emerged as a politically significant force when he began beating the birther drum in , and he’s continued to
