Donald Trumps calls this week for President Barack Obama to release his birth certificate prompted negative reactions from pundits who would like to turn the tables on Trump and say, Youre fired.
However, Trumps comments, made most recently in an exclusive interview with Newsmax.TV, also garnered support from those who wonder why Obama has not supplied documentation of where he was born.
Trump rekindled the longtime controversy Wednesday on ABCs The View when he said Obama was probably born in the United States, but he wants the president to prove it with a birth certificate.
As for the critics, Brian Lowry of Variety got personal. More than anything, Trump looks like a buffoon an egomaniac hopelessly addicted to the spotlight, floating the prospect of a presidential run to a gullible media to boost interest in himself and Celebrity Apprentice," Lowry wrote on the magazines website.
Moreover, he seems in complete denial about the fact that his NBC show crested some time ago. Seriously, 8 million viewers or so is through the roof? Only if the ceiling is about three inches above your head.
David Weigel of Slate magazine took up Trumps challenge to show him a photo of Obama as a child. I've seen 14-year-old, Trump said. I've seen 13-year-old. I haven't seen early pictures." Weigels column includes a photo of Obama as a child that appeared on the cover of Time magazine in 2008.

Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie, a friend of Obama's parents in Hawaii who said he remembers when the future president was born, first vowed to produce an original copy of the president's birth certificate this year.
But he abandoned those efforts because it is against state law to release private documents, CNN quoted his spokeswoman as saying.

As always just follow the money, including Palin, Rush and the rest of the knee weak bunch. ONLY Donald Trump has shown real cojones, and he's fed up with it!!!
She gets her daily orgasm here with FReepers that she is NOT getting at home, aka internet pervert!!!
Despite my dyslexia, I fully agree!!!
Lol. Now you’re just trying to interest Laz in a subject he otherwise finds boring. ;)
According to your standards, how then does that equate with Barak Obama Sr. who was a dual citizen of Kenya and Britain?

So, why dont the Democrats like Trump?
After all, hes been a registered Democrat most of this century.
1987: Republican
October 1999: Independent
August 2001: Democrat
Sept. 15, 2009: Republican
Ol’ basketball head, lol. I’ll bet all this is bothering him too with all the other things happening. People are speaking out.
.
I was experimenting with both the Jester-BB and BC-Jester-BB in #1-#2 frames
Amazing how the eye is fooled into seeing extra frames of movement that are not there
Like the McCain-Flasher .gif
-
So Trump quickly dumped every type of BC and Birth Registration on his birth that exists
Very subtle stuff!
I see one new FR troll is on this thread explaining how Obama is a Natural Born Citizen of the USA
Because he is allegedly a US citizen because he was allegedly born in an alleged state
Lots of BS for sale
But nobody is buying any of it
We’re all stocked up on crazy BS
.
Even Trump thought his hospital BC would be adequate, lol. I remember when I went to get a passport and they laughed about hospital BC’s.
There is so much confusion to people about what Natural Born Citizen means and Obama’s whole background is a confused, hidden mess.
.
I think Trump just showed his hospital BC to get the media and internet radicals and Obama’s spinners attacking it as “not official”
He had all the rest of the official NYC BC and Birth Registration all ready - and dumped it showing up his critics as Obama’s lying pimps
Obama has had years to produce just one piece of official BC paper
Yet Obama has not - and paid several law firms incredible amounts of money and not released one single official document
Perhaps Obama thought he could wait until just before the 2012 election and suddenly pull out a long form BC that appears to be official and kosher
But now Obama cannot do that
Trump Trumped Obama
Any paper Obama produce now will be looked at with suspicion and doubt
Trump has showed Obama to be a silly fool
In NYC there was an outdoor ice skating spot that never was working properly or fixed for years
Donald Trump volunteered to fix it quickly - and he did
.
Well we know he is a very good businessman, not sure about being a President but I’d almost take anyone over Obama.
Many say Trump is working to help Hillary......
.
I think Trump knows he cannot get the Republican nomination
But he knows Sarah Palin affected much of the 2010 election - and how she makes such big waves with here short editorials on the internet
Trump saw that Sarah Palin used unique and simple methods to expose and shine the spotlight - and get huge numbers of people to react
And Trump has money and access and business and communication smarts
Soros spends millions - billions to influence politics and the economy - to his benefit
Trump goes on “The View” for not one red cent - and becomes the spotlight
Trump knows business will be rotten if energy (and gasoline) double in price - or worse
Gasoline was $1.89/gal under Bush
Gasoline was $3.59/gal under Obama
And Obama said “under my plan electricity will skyrocket!”
Trump heard that and was not impressed or thrilled
.
You’re right that Trump has the money, access and connections too.
Lol, bet Whoopie is mad after both O’Reilly and Trump made her blow her top over things she didn’t want to hear.
We’ll see what happens in the next months.
The question is what do they wish to gain?
