What were Trump's birther lies about?

Most likely because Cruz's father is a American citizen who came to America in 1957. If he had accused Cruz of being Cuban then that could be argued as racist. 

The birther lies were just like today's stories about Trump. Folks are not happy with the President because their values differ and just threw anything against the wall to see if anything sticks. 

This "Trump started the birther movement" is just silly. Hills and her supporters were bringing it up in 2008. Matter of fact there are articles that suggest it started as early as 2004. Trump first mentioned it in 2011 and I'm sure his goal was to de-legitimize the Obama's Presidency simply because of Political reasons. But it makes Trump sound like a racist if folks go with the narrative: "Trump started the birther movement because Obama is Black". I really don't give those folks credit at looking at much with an open mind. They're probably actually rational people, but the current event have them twisted.
