VIDEO-‘Shame on You’: Omarosa Scolds Chris Hayes for Asking About Birtherism | Mediaite
Chris Hayes confronted Donald Trump surrogate Omarosa tonight over the many “unanswered questions” about Trump’s birtherism. He pointed out that Trump still needs to address exactly when he stopped being a birther and what changed his mind, asking her if he’ll be clearing that up tonight.
Omarosa was taken aback by his question and said Trump “put that to bed,” but Hayes shot back, “He spent five years talking about the president not being an American!”
She responded, “We have young black men being killed in this country, we have people rioting in the streets of Charlotte, and you wanna start with birther? Shame on you.”
Omarosa also weirdly referred to this as “conspiracy theories that you all are floating around,” and Hayes reminded her just how prominent a birther Trump was.
