Washington (CNN) – Self-proclaimed birther Donald Trump is now so doubtful of President Obama's birthplace that he's sent a team of his own investigators to Hawaii in hopes of getting to the bottom of the issue.
That's according to Trump himself, who, in an interview with NBC, warned his investigators just might uncover "one of the greatest cons in the history of politics and beyond."
"I have people that have been studying it and they cannot believe what they're finding," Trump said an interview that aired Thursday Morning.
Asked if he has assigned people specifically to search in Hawaii, Trump said, "Absolutely."
The business mogul, who in a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal Poll is tied for second place among potential presidential candidates, also suggested the president is involved in an ongoing cover-up over the matter.
"He spent $2 million in legal fees trying on to get away from this issue, and if it weren't an issue, why wouldn't he just solve it?" he said. "I wish he would because if he doesn't, it's one of the greatest scams in the history of politics and in the history, period. You are not allowed to be a president if you're not born in this country. Right now, I have real doubts."

Good to know that you’re opposed to electing conservatives to Congress.
The Democrat Party of Hawaii refused to certify Obama in 2008, so Nancy Pelosi certified Obama for them.

You can’t be serious. All he has to do is easily turn this into an invasion of privacy and suddenly everyone on the right that was talking about the birth certificate looks like a psychotic privacy invader.
Frankly, I’m really sick and tired of Obama supporters on here calling me “noobie” or “Alinsky supporter” or other nonsense for suggesting that we focus on electing conservatives. There’s something really messed up when people are sandbagging against electing conservatives on a messageboard that’s all about conservatism.
It’s not Prof Mel who’s opposed to electing conservatives—it’s Papa Alinsky.
You do come across as a Concern Troll. Why not leave eligibility threads alone, since you’ve suggested they’re misguided. You can do the important work of electing conservatives, and leave eligibility issues to those who think they matter to the Constitution.
I don’t know how it worked in Hawaii in the 1950’s in regard to birth announcements, but I do know how it worked in a mid-sized Midwest city in the 1970’s.
One of my jobs as a new reporterette was to call the three local hospitals every day to get a list of births (boy born to Mr. and Mrs. So and So, address, on Tuesday at name of hospital) and also to get a list of admissions to the hospital. I don’t know if this is still done, but that was standard procedure back then.
When my kids were born, I just put a notice in our small weekly newspaper for their scrapbooks. No questions were asked and you didn’t have to show proof you even had a baby.
How about not making stuff up about me and putting words into my mouth?
I DO think these issues are important in terms of the Constitution, but we can investigate quietly. I’d happily donate to a fund to get a real investigation going that stayed quiet until they actually have results.
It’s the LOUDNESS that is the problem. Being quiet about our investigation has little drawback - even if Obama comes up with a birth certificate, there’s no backlash. If we run around screaming “BIRTH CERTIFICATE!!11!!!” with no hard evidence, we do nothing more than add the risk of looking like utter fools and blowing our chance at taking the Senate and the White House in 2012. We don’t have to take that risk to prove issues about Obama’s birth certificate. The “loud” approach is incredibly risky without much benefit, and it’s enough to convince me that the Donald is basically working for Obama.
What words did I put in your mouth?
Thanks. Granny said it all right. Even the moonbats’ claim that she didn’t falls apart on its face. They say first, that it was a mistranslation, but then they point out that the younger relatives rushed to correct, not the translation but granny’s actual words. Consistency is not the hallmark of liberals.
Donald might just peruse Free Republic. Who knows? Maybe he picked up the ball on this after reading much “evidence” presented by some on this site.
