Only his hostility to Barack Obama and his pathological need for attention. Arpaio’s birtherism is what Jonathan Kay calls the “clinical conspiracist” variety, meaning a conspiracist who is actually mentally ill. Arpaio’s birtherism seems to me a variation of Munchhausen’s Syndrome.

Has Arpaio been a birther all along? Did the Donald’s epic fail not dissaude Arpaio from pursuing this? Or is this all a deflection from the scandals in his own office?
