Trump says he still doesn't know where Obama was born
Source: CNN
New York (CNN)Donald Trump is standing his ground.
The billionaire businessman was unapologetic -- and as defiant as ever -- about a number of controversies that have inundated his presidential campaign in a wide-ranging interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper that aired on Wednesday and Thursday.
The brash real estate mogul and former host of the reality TV show, "The Apprentice," has come under attack for referring to some immigrants coming into the United States as "rapists." Trump also addressed head-on a Washington Post report that said there were illegal immigrants working at one of Trump's hotel construction sites in Washington. And he said he still isn't totally convinced President Barack Obama was born in this country.
Speaking at the Trump Tower in midtown Manhattan, Trump also took on his fellow presidential candidates and insisted of his long-shot White House bid: "I'm in it to win it."

annoucement in the newspapers because somebody had to call in or answer the
phone @ the hospital and give all the correct births and deaths and Barack's phony
one too to the Dept. of Health which is where the newspapers got their information.

newspapers and then had a birth certificate placed into the state government's files.
Good thing that Rince Penis talked to Trump and asked him to back down on bat shit crazy stuff.

Christ, what a waste of skin that guy is.

(2,003 posts)They'll twist themselves into a pretzel to explain how it is that a Kenyan-born (or even Hawaiian-born) Barack Obama is ineligible to be President while a Canadian-born Ted Cruz is perfectly eligible. They'll argue that unlike Cruz, Obama's mother was too young to transmit citizenship.
It's in the Constitution, doncha know! Just don't ask them to point out where in the Constitution.

(698 posts)that he had a team of PIs at work in Hawaii investigating Obama's birth? Didn't he say that people would be amazed at what they were turning up?
Maybe somebody might challenge him to go public with all those amazing findings.

(92 posts)He brushed it off. Didn't answer, diverted to something else.
In essence, as we all know, Trump is the ultimate liar. There was probably never any investigator.

They probably went to the courthouse, found the birth certificate was real, said.. shit on this, sat on the beach for 4 days, came home and reported to Trump...Its real, no smoking gun.... Notice that after he said that and said he will announce his findings, he never did.......His interview with Katy Tur...he brushed it off as old news...

(18,652 posts)Trump says this so convincingly and I want to know if it's true. But they send out little girls who can't stand up to him to interview him, and they ask their canned q's. But when he says something that's "new," they don't question.

(2,679 posts)Same thing happened to me. My BC says Maine, and that was the one and only time I was ever in Maine. Don't remember a thing of the whole 24 hours that I was there.
I too didn't walk for about a year afterwards. Talking was touch and go at first as all I said was mama dada. No complete sentences and I had issues with the toilet, didn't know how, just peed and pooped my pants all the time.
I'll turn 65 next year, so I have those toilet issues again before long......

(60,335 posts)Even after it became a state in 1959, it was still part of Kenya. It was this wild Kenyan conspiracy to seat an Kenyan as a US President.
And they would have gotten away with it if it were not for Donald Trump and his band of merry birthers who figured it all out all by themselves.

What a country.
Lying two-faced piece of crap. He is in it to influence, to advocate for worse positions than his conspirators so theirs don't seem so bad. Takes a lot of heat and ugliness off of them, which is then transferred to his hair. That's why it looks like that. Or maybe it's just naturally like that.
In any event, the idea has been planted in people's minds, so it doesn't seem so new, or so bad.
He reminds me of a scary clown.

There are a lot of REAL issues to discuss between the candidates, but the MSM thinks it is cute. Is it any wonder that O'Malley hasn't got much coverage, except here on DU. It is because the media does NOT want to inform the public about where the candidates stand on the issues, they prefer to broadcast Trump's racist rants
