Trump Fires Back at Obama Campaign Smear
NewsMax.com ^ | August 19, 2012 | Steve Coz

Donald Trump blasted President Barack Obama’s senior adviser Robert Gibbs Sunday as “vicious and hateful” after the former press secretary called Trump a “right-wing nut job” on Fox News.

Trump told Newsmax. “I built a net worth in excess of $8 billion, built a tremendous company, and have employed tens of thousands of people. I hardly see where I qualify under his definition.” He recently declined an offer to deliver a prime-time speech at the Republican National Convention, but he has been promising to deliver a big “surprise” at the convention in Tampa, Fla., which begins on Aug. 27.

“The Obama representatives like Robert Gibbs attack people viciously, but people like me will not be silent and will answer them back.....that is why the country is so terribly divided."

Trump added. “Obama has no solutions. Obama has failed the country and its great citizens, and they don’t like it when somebody such as myself speaks the truth about this — it hurts too much."

During an interview on “Fox News Sunday,” Gibbs used the smear against Trump while trying to make a point about GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney.

“I'm not going to be lectured by Mitt Romney or anybody on the Romney campaign about the tone of this campaign,” Gibbs began. “This is a guy who's . . . auctioning off dinners with the birther in chief, right-wing-nut-job Donald Trump, who still questions whether or not the president was born in the United States of America.

“Robert Gibbs is nothing more than a mouthpiece for a desperate campaign that once promised us hope and change and has given us nothing but debt and unemployment,” Trump said. “Our country is in serious trouble, and something must be done.”

There are a lot of people I wouldn't care if I pissed off or not. But, I would not want to be on the fightin' side of a hot-headed billionaire.

I can't stand the guy, but even I have to admit that Donald Trump really pulls no punches at all. I wish every GOP political advisor had the brains to lay out their campaigns as simply as this:

"Robert Gibbs is nothing more than a mouthpiece for a desperate campaign that once promised us hope and change and has given us nothing but debt and unemployment," Trump said. "Our country is in serious trouble, and something must be done."

Nutjob, absolutely.

Right wing, not so much.

I heard that interview and was curious why Robert “The Smirker” Gibbs even brought Trump into the conversation.

There is a reason.

Don’t go all wobbly now, Donald. Don’t let them make you go postal. They want to know your secret.

Someone had better start talking like a real person-I’m sick to death of PC speech.

Barry is undocumented. Barry is a liar. Barry is an admitted drug user. Barry is bisexual or worse. Barry supports killing children in the womb and supports leaving them to die if they survive an abortion AND he uses tax money to provide for it. Barry IGNORES the law of the land. Barry is accomplishing just EXACTLY what he wanted-the destruction of American’s LIVES-IN the womb and OUT.

PC speech is killing this country. Speak like a person losing their house, business, savings and family or STFU.

PEOPLE ARE ANGRY. And, they’re getting angrier by the second.

Robert Gibbs should choose his words carefully, for they could be his last.

Somebody needs to tell him that Alvin Onaka recently confirmed to AZ SOS Ken Bennett that Obama’s birth record in Hawaii is not legally valid and the image that was posted on the White House website is not a “true and accurate representation of the original record on file” at the HDOH.

Bennett requested that the gender, date, city and island of birth, mother’s name, and father’s name claimed on the White House image be verified as legally true and that the image be verified as a “true and accurate representation of the original record on file”. Onaka refused to verify ANY of those things, and the only reason allowable by law for him to not verify those things is if Onaka CANNOT certify that they are true.

IOW, the HDOH has already spilled the beans on Obama’s documentation problem. He has no legally-determined birth facts based on a Hawaii record. If he’s got birth facts that are legally probative, they are from a birth certificate originating somewhere besides Hawaii.

For a while they tried to hide the truth by making carefully-crafted comments that were assumed to affirm the truthfulness of Obama’s claims, by altering their 1960-64 birth index so it includes legally non-valid records, and even altering at least 3 BC numbers (which could not have been issued in 1961 to the people who now have those numbers - no matter which of the 3 versions that Hawaii officials have CLAIMED the numbering was done in 1961 is used).

But when asked point-blank, Onaka did the right thing and refused to verify what he can’t legally verify.

Somebody needs to tell Robert Gibbs his slip is hanging out; the truth has already been disclosed by Alvin Onaka.

Like it when Trump 'get's mad'; because he at least tries to 'get even' with Obama. He is not afraid to dish it out and/or back. Of course; just a 'little sand' in Obam's eyes; turns him into zombie on the march.

All considered; Trump should be prepared for anything, from Obama.

He maybe a little on the coo-coo side.

He may not be right wing.

At this point, I don’t care. He speaks out strongly against these jokers...and gets media attention.

(Let’s hope he doesn’t go off the rails until he ceases to be usefull.)

I don’t like Trump all that much but - once in a while - he magically turns into Thor’s Hammer and is a pleasure to watch.

I like how fearless Trump is in speaking his mind. I wish all GOP politicians had similarly big kahuna’s. Most do not, sadly.

Meantime; the Repubs are still figuring out 'rhetoric' that resonates! Freaking

truth-to-lie resonates; and we cheer; whenever a Repub speaks to it and 'with anger' - on our behalf.

We just do not have enough who share the courage of Allen West and Marco Rubio.

Mitt again, recently offered; that 'two good people can disagree'. . .

OMG; this is painful. Our polls would be 'off the charts'; if political correctness were publicly killed/buried by Republicans.

Oops, thanks for the correction. I was going to say golf balls since that should be acceptable?

Well; he does things 'his way'; and gets paid well for doing just that. But really; what is the 'coo-coo' here? For challenging Obama? On his BC yet? Hope this is not the 'coo/coo' you are so referencing. Maybe his business MO; what??? (His hair?)
