Donald Trump canceled his appearance Friday evening at a major campaign stop for the GOP presidential field in South Carolina as he faces criticism from both Republican and Democratic candidates over his failure to address claims that President Obama is a Muslim and "not even an American."
Trumps campaign announced in a statement Friday he no longer plans to speak at the Heritage Action Presidential Forum at the Bon Secours Arena in Greenville.

I doubt it. If he’s not going there must be another reason
No candidate is qualified to define the president's religion (his birth was NEVER ALLUDED TO IN THe half-vast QUESTION THROWN AT TRUMP)
nor should they accept being asked to do so
It is irrelevant to the campaign or any national issue
and, with 7 years Obama years down and one year to go
WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?
WHAT A SET UP
and I DESPISE the RNC and GOPe field for playing along with this for their own selfish interests
Hope Donald has Shabbat dinner with his daughter and grand kids, and relaxes for a few hours
The response should be “I don’t do Ashley Banfield’s bidding”.
Good call by the Trump team.
Let the GOPe and their pet monkeys in the MSM throw their temper tantrums in isolation while Donald laps up the support of the crowds.
The issue will diffuse naturally and if the punditards continue to try to make it relevant, they will look increasingly hacked and worthless.
Rev. Wright is an America hating former black Muslim and an ally of Louis Farrakhan. Obama admitted he only joined the church to advance his political career.
Obama also said he seldom attended the church and was not in attendance for most of Rev. Wright's sermons.
For the life of me, I don’t understand Trump haters like yourself. I’m a Cruz supporter, but I am glad we have a candidate not tied to the big money supporters like all other politicians. Instead of eating our own, we should be glad to have him on our side and let Trump destroy the left, imo.
This is one of the dumbest things to try to ‘get’ Trump on.
Someone here on FR suggested the guy who asked the question was a GOPe plant. Seems to me now that’s likely.
The Donald should rest this weekend, recharge those batteries, and come out with both guns blazing on Monday.
He needs all of our support, even if you prefer someone else for POTUS. If they succeed in taking Trump down, then the choices will be submission or bloodshed.
I was not going to for for Trump, but NOW I might!!
They want Trump to behave more like John McCain
“Obama was a Muslim until his early 20s. That is documented.”
Would you mind posting the links right here on this thread?
Thanks in advance.
“The evidence is that he attended the Rev. Wrights church for twenty years. Which is as bad if not worse than being Muslim.”
Actually Wright said he made it easy for Obama to adopt Christianity without having to renounce Islam:
The saddest thing about this farce is the GOP leadership has been playing along with it for years.
“And he also had a commitment to appear at the Heritage event, right?”
Did he?
Or was he merely on the invite list?
Do you know?
You can bet that all the members of the Kiddie Table Club will be there. Jindal, Santorum are saving a seat (or two) for Christie.
Trump missed one event because he had pressing business concerns. Read the article.
That does not in any way make him “anti Heritage Foundation.”
“The evidence is that he attended the Rev. Wrights church for twenty years.”
Wright was a muslim before he started calling himself a “Christian”.
The Trump haters really, REALLY don’t get it. They try to destroy him with this, but it only increases our support.
Trump is going to come out with an announcement that he’s just closed another really large deal and had to concentrate on that today. After all, a lot of people he employs depend on him making money to keep them employed but libs wouldn’t understand that since they think it all comes from the government or a magic tree.
I hope Donald does not back down. However, I’m not surprised that he wants to step out of heavy fire, for just a few days. Luckily, this happened on a weekend. The news cycle may lose interest by Monday.
He needs all of our support, even if you prefer someone else for POTUS. If they succeed in taking Trump down, then the choices will be submission or bloodshed.
Bears repeating.
