There was an article posted yesterday that said Trump’s holdings (most of which were real estate that came from his dad) had increased in value ca. 300 per cent since 1987.
Over the same period, the value of my house has increased ca. 400 per cent, from $150K to $750K. So if Trump is some kind of real estate genius, I’m obviously a super genius!
Did I miss the news bulletin in which it was announced that Walker, Cruz, Carson, Perry, Paul and Jindal were dropping out? Please point me to it.
Well, we won’t know for sure whether Cruz is eligible until combover boy finishes his bombshell investigation, just like he did for Obama. Oh wait......
Article is five months old. Obviously Cruz doesn’t give a shit about it. Neither should you. Try to keep up.
That claim does raise an issue that may influence some voters and it is voiced not just by those on the left; Cruz ought to promptly respond.
He could, of course, point out the claim is wishful thinking by his political opponents but is a claim not supported in the slightest after a thorough examination of official Canadian records by Canadian officials/experts.
There are some who choose to believe, contrary to the founders concern that the Commander in Chief should have absolutely no possible allegiance to a foreign nation, that one can be a natural born US citizen even though one's parent is the citizen of another country.
However, almost no one in their right mind would conclude one born in Canada to two Canadian citizens is a natural born US citizen.
Well said.
We know politics is a blood sport, one that involves being able to recognize the enemy. Trump, based on his experience growing a financial empire (arguably more difficult and stressful than starting from $1) is not exactly a novice. He no doubt does not want to damage those who could possibly serve on his team in the future.
Hey now.. I’m not one of the Trumpettes. I was just chuckling at myself for getting worked up over an old article.
Yeah, 5 months is waaay too long to expect Trump to hold the same position on something.
By coincidence, today is the 8th annversary of the first “Obama is ineligible” lawsuit in federal court. Phillip Berg was a Democrat, Hillary Clinton supporter.
DOCKET
BERG v. OBAMA et al
Plaintiff Philip J. Berg alleged that Defendant Barack Obama is not eligible for the Office of the President because Obama lost his U.S. citizenship when his mother married an Indonesian citizen and naturalized in Indonesia. Plaintiff further alleged that Obama followed her naturalization and failed to take an oath of allegiance when he turned 18 years old to regain his U.S. citizenship status.
The case was dismissed on October 24, 2008. Berg then appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States. Both his petition and request for an injunction were denied by Justices Souter and Kennedy and then the full court.

I know humor and I’m sick of trolls. If you were joking, it would be unable to tell from the crap that gets sluing around the Trump threads on a daily basis.
People earn insults.
One should be very careful about setting precedents. The law of unintended consequences is a hash and brutal one.
Why should one stop short of being President? They already get everything else.
that word was not part of the header at first...
you said he paid all the money back....that’s not what happens with 7,11 or 13. Only a small portion is paid back.
And I'll believe Cruz anyday over liberal Trump.
