Trump on Whether He’s Still a Birther: ‘I Don’t Talk About It Anymore’
Source: Mediaite
There is an alarming lack of clarity about Donald Trumps current views on whether President Obama was born in this country or not.
(...)
WPVIs Matt ODonnell asked Trump in Philadelphia yesterday about this. Heres how he answered:
ODONNELL: You dont talk about the birth certificate anymore. Do you regret even bringing it up?
TRUMP: I dont talk about it anymore. I dont talk about it anymore.
ODONNELL: Do you regret bringing it up back then?
TRUMP: I told you, I dont talk about it anymore.

So if Hillary wants to make the email story go away, all she has to do is simply say, "I don't talk about it anymore," and the press will also give her a pass and be equally willing to accommodate her wishes, right?

Because yes the OP is correct, if it's off his plate, Hillary is entitled to
one or two off her plate as well.

Asshole is too good a word for him.

(959 posts)regarding anything anyone tries to hold him accountable to. He just refuses to answer, period. I hope to hell Lester Holt, and the others put an end to this if the debates actually happen. Surely he won't be allowed to just stand there with that stupid look on his face and blow the questions off.

2016 will go down as one of the weirdest years yet. And there's ample time to make it weirder!

What a fucking racist, cowardly, lying sack of shit. And the media isn't even calling him out on it.
