It was always bullshit, but in terms of political effectiveness it tapped into some powerful racism and dogged Obama for years to the point that he actually did release his long-form birth certificate. But the attempt to conspiracize about flipping burgers at Mickey D's is a lot more ineffectual and ridiculous.

They're claiming it's not true because there's "no proof".... no proof that she worked fast food in the fucking 1970's for a summer or two??? and left it off her resumes because nobody cares that you had a summer job when applying for professional positions.
