Let’s just put an end to this issue. Pick a couple of key swing states. Pass a state law that requires any person appearing on any ballot for the office of President to provide full, unambigous proof of natural born citizenship, including the provision of an original birth certificate for in-person inspection. He doesn’t want to provide it? Fine, his name doesn’t appear on the ballot. Buh, bye, Mr. President.

Aren’t there provisions like this under consideration in a couple of states already?

“Pass a state law...”

Such laws can’t even pass in deep red states. How the heck are you going to “pass a law” in a swing state?

I’ve been saying the same thing for a while.

One or two states that have lots of electoral votes. That’s all it would take.

He’d have to fess up or get out of the game.

Actually it only takes ONE state to pass such a law to bring down this house of cards.

Several states have tried. So far, IIRC, they all get cold feet at the last moment...
