I am not sure of the legalese, but I think the fact that it is claimed to be an “abstract” and not a “true and correct certified copy” covers their backside on this. It likely is a created document but probably cannot be considered a forgery or illegal in any way because it was not presented as a copy of the real thing (as far as I know) and was presented as an abstract of supposedly the real thing. I didn’t understand why they released an abstract and not a copy of the real one to begin with but maybe the whole reason was to cover their backside from legal issues.
Then Trump et al should demand the original be released for public scrutiny, because an electronic abstract document cannot be authenticated. Obama thinks he is so clever, the issue is not going away. And if he thinks that he and his minions can claim racism, look at Strunk’s latest filing...then the logical thing is to incriminate BOTH McCain and Obama in a conspiracy to defraud the American Electorate since both were ineligble and both would not challenge each other on the issue of eligibility.
