The White House dissed Donald Trump Sunday as a "sideshow" with "zero chance" of becoming president, while defending a last-minute budget deal as a necessary compromise.
Chief advisor David Plouffe unleashed a barrage of stinging comments on Trump, who has recently trafficked in fringe conspiracy theories about Obama's place of birth while taunting America with hints of a presidential run.
"There is zero chance that Donald Trump would ever be hired by the American people," Plouffe told ABC's "This Week with Christiane Amanpour."
"I saw Donald Trump kind of rising in the polls and given his behavior and spectacle the last couple of weeks, I hope he keeps rising," Plouffe added.
"There may be a small part of the country that believes these things, but mainstream Americans think it's a sideshow," he said. "That's not leadership, that's kind of sideshow behavior."

At least they both agree it is Trump’s call to get into the birth controversey. Perhaps this is the beginning of a new GOP team.

I am saying that this is not comparable to Ross Perot. And it is not. That argument won’t work. We had an incumbent back then.
Truth is we have a lousy bunch up this time as we did last time.
If we lose it will because we failed to run a candidate that can get the votes from the majority of Americans needed to win the general election.
All we really need is about 15% of those who voted for “the one” last time, to change their mind this time or not vote at all. He won by 6% and another 9% should be enough to overcome the “fixing” of votes.
15-20% loss from last time—and he IS DONE!!
Does your computer do Google?
bump
He who laughs last, laughs long and loud, Pflouffe.
4 out of 10 Americans don’t believe the Marxist was born in the USA!
That’s 40% who will carry that doubt into the voting booth!
I do not believe he can produce a legitimate BC.
LOL I know! Trump I bet has better Vegas odds of winning 2012 than OholyO does! I don’t know how to check that tho...
Trump is holding 4 aces.
Pflouffe showed his busted flush.
Strict-constructionists will never win the majority at this point. Anything less than a strict-constructionist victory dooms our once great republic forever, IMHO.
The quote was "...they can't believe what they're finding." And said during an interview on the Today show, no less. Big alarms went off in the WH.
But it didn't happen. Instead, Obama sends out his lickspittle, Plouffe, to dance in front of his enablers in the MSM.
My question for the WH: is this really the best you can do?
Thanks.
Hey Id love to see that interview if you can dig it up.
I can’t disagree with you about needing strict constructionists on the Supreme Court.
You cannot do that unless you WIN elections. That is just they way it is.
I don’t, but I consider it less likely every day. The Donald is doing real damage to obastard’s credibility with some independents...
And BTW Hussein was exposed by a DEMOCRAT, not Republican.
