"Trump's False Birther Claims Against Nikki Haley Spark Outrage"

TL;DR Summary
Donald Trump has been denounced for perpetuating "totally baseless" birther claims against Nikki Haley, his rival for the Republican presidential nomination, by suggesting she is not qualified due to her parents' citizenship status when she was born. Legal experts have refuted these claims, emphasizing that Haley, a woman of color, was born in the US and is therefore eligible to run for president. Trump's actions have been widely criticized as playing the race card and drawing on anti-immigrant prejudice, with parallels drawn to his previous birther claims against Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, and Ted Cruz.
