Chris Matthews Accuses 'Birther' Donald Trump Of "Going Primate"
Business Insider ^ | March 18, 2011 | Steven Loeb

Posted on 03/18/2011 10:17:18 AM PDT by Smokeyblue

Yesterday, while talking to Good Morning America, potential presidential candidate Donald Trump waded into birther territory when he said this:

"Everybody that even gives any hint of being a birther, a word you didn't use, even a little bit of a hint like, 'Gee, you know, maybe, just maybe this much of a chance,' they label them as an idiot. Let me tell you, I'm a really smart guy. I was a really good student at the best school in the country. The reason I have a little doubt, just a little, is because he grew up and nobody knew him. When you interview people... if I ever got the nomination if I ever decide to run, you may go back and interview people from my kindergarten.They'll remember me. Nobody ever comes forward. Nobody knows who he is until later in his life. It's very strange. The whole thing is very strange."

Chris Matthews blasted Trump for saying that, accusing him of "going primate."

"Why is is he going out there and selling this malarkey?"

I am a birther.

Show me the Kenyan Impostor’s birth certificate.

Ya know, I hate to even admit this on a forum where my words can be dug up years later...but...

I could probably vote for Trump against Barry if it came down to it.

Trump has many shortcomings in the conservative department...but he would annihilate Obama in a debate.

YOU'RE FIRED!

Can you believe that Freepers (myself included) are actually thinking “yeah, I could vote for Trump...”

It’d be cool if Trump were to elaborate further on this, and school the MSM.

You would think they would show a little journalistic curiosity and attempt to prove him wrong eh?

Oh never mind, it’s not nearly as VITAL as forged documents aimed at W. Now THAT was a matter of national interest!

Funny that Trump...who gave money to Rahm Emanuel for his Chicago mayoral campaign....is the only potential Presidential candidate with the nads to raise the Obama Eligibility issue....and raise questions about Free Trade with Communist China.

These are issues that the GOP and “Fiscal Conservatives” are in lock-step with the Liberal Media on.....attacking Obama Birthers and supporting Free Trade Communism/Free Trade with Communist China.

As most of the GOP candidates run lock-step with the Liberal Media....Trump is the only one to go against it? More indicative of how weak and liberal the GOP has become if they let Trump take the lead on Real Conservative issues.

The reptile Mathews should be so lucky “going Primate” his own damn self.

******

Trump should do this to embarrass Mathews: He should go on national tv and make a big deal of showing his own long form birth certificate,and then challenge tv host Matthews to do the same.

Yes, if Matthews' courage is as big as his mouth, then Matthews should stand up and display his long form birth certificate on his own tv show and let anybody examine it who wants to, or he should shut up.

How about this idea: Trump requires all persons on his Apprentice tv show to publicly display their long form birth certificates on the show, or else they would be "Fired!"

“Can you imagine what would happen if a white Conservative commentator had described actions by an African American politician as “going primate?”

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Exactly the first thing I thought of. But, as we all know, liberals cannot be racist.

Hey Chris, is it “going primate” to say the sky is blue too? It’s true, no one knows who Obama is.

Trump had huge fun engaging Rosie O'Donnell in a public war of words, with all its attendant publicity. He loves the media hoopla almost as much as he loves money. Oh, yeah...Chrissie's gonna be hearing from Donald and I can't wait!

I bet Trump's hair really blew back when he heard that Chrissie called him a primate. LOL!

Hey Chrissie, Humans are part of the biological order of the primate, so I am not really sure what your point is. I am not sure what Obama is, based on what facts he has currently revealed about himself of his past, I concluded he was hatched and is not part of the primate order.

Chris Matthews is an idiot. Here is his email address: Hardball@msnbc.com

Matthews, just a couple of months ago, was asking that obam a release his Long Form Birth Certificate.
