Oh … oh dear:
Trump spokesperson Katrina Pearson just said on CNN that Obama's changing of rules of engagement probably cost Capt. Khan his life. In 2004.

I refuse to believe this actually happened. @KatrinaPierson CANNOT possibly be this stupid….

Lie of the Day
1. Trump flack @KatrinaPierson blames Obama/Clinton for Capt. Khan's death
2. Khan died 2004 (Obama: Ill. State Senator)— West Wing Reports (@WestWingReport) August 2, 2016
I just heard that also. 2004 was Obama policy? Jeez!
— Jason Ali (@JasonAli12) August 2, 2016
Obama did that as a State Senator in 2004? https://t.co/hW4PGNIAwQ
— Guy Benson (@guypbenson) August 2, 2016
State Senator Obama and Senator Clinton are all-powerful. https://t.co/8smAwRaGBY
— Mike (@ThePantau) August 2, 2016
While Obama and Clinton have been HORRIBLE, Captain Khan was killed well before the Obama Presidency.
Dope. https://t.co/egfArK4BjN
