Former Trump Campaign Manager Fumbles Way Through Panel as Angela Rye Shuts Down Birther Theory 

On Tuesday’s edition of “CNN Tonight with Don Lemon,” commentators Angela Rye and former Donald Trump campaign manger Corey Lewandowski get into a heated debate over President Barack Obama’s birth certificate and college transcripts.

In the segment, Rye brings up Trump’s vital role in the birther movement insinuating that the president is not an American citizen.

“Donald Trump has been attacking the president long before he began campaigning for this important office,” Rye says during the segment. “He is the one who was the spokesperson for the birther movement and calling for transcripts, and saying the president was an affirmative action admittee of Harvard.”

Lewandowski asks if the president released his college transcripts. Rye retorts with, “Where’s Trump’s tax returns?”

“Corey, in this moment I’m going to Beyoncé you — boy, bye,” Rye quotes the super star’s hit, “Sorry.” “You’re so out of line right now. Tell your candidate to release his tax returns.”
