Donald Trump Refuses to Say Whether He Thinks President Obama Was Born in US (Good Job, Trump!)

Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump refused to say whether he believes President Obama was born in the U.S. only a day after he defended himself for appearing to allow an audience member at a town hall last week get away with saying the president was born elsewhere and is a Muslim.

"I talk about jobs, I'm talking about the military -- I don't get into it,” Trump said on ABC's “This Week” Sunday. “They ask that question and I just want to talk about the things because it's of no longer interest to me. We're beyond that and it's just something I don't talk about.”

Good stand Trump.

There are questions. I also think standing non-committal on this question now, is a good place to be.

Why are they pressing this stupid “we wanna getcha” interrogation. It sure isn’t...just a question.

The answer he gave is the right one. It’s of no interest to him on whether Zero is a Muslim or not. Why should it be? I personally don’t care either; I just want him gone.

How could he actually know the answer to that?

“How could he actually know the answer to that?”

He hires people to investigate it!

Good answer, he should also remind these people that it was Hillary’s campaign who first brought this up in ‘08, and recommend they ask her about it.

Because he’s a birther as he 4 years ago made claims that obamatard should submit the original BC. It made headlines for awhile until Klwonie the Kenyan like clockwork started waving his “BC” in front of everyone...

My hope is that one day the truth comes out. I believe America’s been had and the media knowingly facilitated it.

The release of something that was purported to be a “Certificate of Live Birth” from the State of Hawaii had a number of inconsistencies when examined closely. This document and others were intensively studied by Sheriff Joseph Arpaio of Maricopa County, Arizona, which strongly suggested that the the certificate may have been tampered with, resulting in a plausible reproduction that would pass cursory examination, but like a currency forgery, certain inconsistencies showed up that indicated the document may have been photoshopped.

I don’t know where BHO was really born. I only know that the pitiful and fraudulent Certificate of Live Birth that his campaign offered as documentation stated he was born in Hawaii. The attempt to fabricate the COLB was so poorly done as to be a great example of how not to try to fool anyone. The backgrounds were not even consistent with the year it was supposed to have been issued. Stalin didn’t call his supporters “useful idiots” for nothing.

If Obama wanted people to think he was a Christian he would attend a Christian church regularly, quote occasionally from the Bible, and refrain from ostentatiously celebrating Muslim holidays like Ramadan.

And if Donald Trump continues to want people to think he’s a courageous politician he’ll stop cringing and mumbling when asked about topics like Obama’s religion.

A courageous politician would not attack powerless Mexican immigrants as criminals and rapists and then turn into a frightened ball of apologetic mush when confronted by the powerful president and his media supporters. That’s the definition of a bully.

The fact is, there is reasonable evidence to suggest that Obama may well be a Muslim. So why couldn’t Donald Trump have simply stated that truth?

Maybe for the same reason that the entire Republican establishment from John Boehner to Mitch McConnell and beyond are also afraid to stand up to Obama. Which means Donald Trump is no better than they are.

When we have a preeminent liar in the White Crib, one must determine which lie is the truth because most of his truths are lies. To which I say, if he likes his religion, he can keep his religion.

I thought that he had a big search going on a while ago looking into the validity of Obama’s birth certificate...

Perhaps that one response could be, “That is a sophomoric and stupid question that has no bearing on a political race for the Presidency. You should be able to come up with more appropriate questions that pertain to the topic at hand.”

I can’t help but think this is going to help Trump, though obviously the media must think they can hurt him with it.

Everything is a mystery regarding Obama, his religion, his origin, his education, who wrote his "autobiographies", etc.
What is provable is that Obama is thoroughly dishonest, lawless, a complete fraud and traitor.
At this point it doesn't matter what religion he may follow or where he was born.
His actions tell us what he is.
The only question is will Obama finally receive the justice he has earned?
