Trump says he's not 'morally obligated' to defend Obama against claims

Washington (CNN)—Donald Trump on Saturday said it is not his job to correct supporters' claims about the President, defending his decision not to take issue with a man who disparaged Muslims and said President Barack Obama is not an American.

But Trump did not dispute the man's allegations made at a town hall event this week, and added that if someone criticized him to Obama, there would be "no chance" the President would come to his defense.

If Trump and other candidates would just ignore such questions there would be an end to “wacko plants” in their audiences! Just say “I’m not going to provide you with an answer to that..., next question!” If they open their mouth again, have security remove them!

Trump just gained another 3-5 points in the polls.

Totally agree! And at the debates they should just not answer stupid questions. Just say " stupid question, move on."

Some gays do good in War—Prince Ruper of the Rhine, flaming gay, fought well for king Charles I. He would sit sidesaddle on his horse and direct his armies with a fan. His soldiers mocked him until he gave them victories! His enemies believed he was a witch. So, some gays do well in the military.

I know he is a Muslim because in his campaign for Illinois senator he said so. Just check the files. This guy is indoctrinated to say anything at any given time for making believe and deceiving to whom he is talking. When a Chief Justice in public says Obama lies the people of the Nation best sit up and take note.

I read his bio. Gay or not, he’s not the leader we need.

I agree with Trump for not defending him.

It’s a good thing he didn’t ask me. I would have put more gas on the fire.

That is a great cartoon. Totally accurate as well.

Very refreshing to have a Winner to back!

Also love Ted Cruz. Fully support both of them.

That’s why people like him: he stands up to the perpetually offended.

I am soooooooooo tired of the perpetually thin-skinned...

obama is NOT a Christian. Who in the world thinks he might be... are lying or just too far left to know.

Being a Christian, I am offended that anyone would label him as one. obama and a true Christian have nothing in common. Zilch!

That question from the audience, was a legit one and one the media has denied is going on out here. If their world is secure, then it isn’t happening anywhere else.

Their cover-up of obama is the reason Trump is riding high. Their cover-up is going to be the destruction of the USA if someone doesn’t have the balls to fight it. And so far, Trump is fighting!

Hillary opened that can of worms up because she knows full well that Trump or any self respecting member of political opposition running for POTUS would not be “defending” Obama. She wants Trump to do her dirty work getting the attacks off of her and on to Obama . And that’s the way this should be handled

You are correct Mr. Trump. Let BoRock, the bully in charge, defend himself. The creature certainly has plenty of second in command bullies to pull it off. Most of WTP believe the religion of our current pResident is not Christian nor do we believe is is American - not with so little time lived in our great Country, and as much admitted this to be true...57 states LOL!! Heck,doesn’t even know how to stand for the Pledge of Allegiance. Ask....chances are very good the words of the P of A are not known either. WTP stand with you Mr. Trump. Don’t back down!

Barack Hussein Obama is not one, not two, but THREE Muslim names. When he was in High School he was called Barry Soetoro. So, what ‘Christian’ changes his name BACK to his birth name if he is a Christian in anything but name convenience only?

I was in airports yesterday with freakin’ CNN everywhere and Wolf Blitzed acted like he’d just discovered the alien bodies in Hanger 18. My God these people made me put on headphones!

The pastor’s master’s degree was in Islamic studies.

Are you referring to Jeremiah Wright?! I've never heard this before. If that is true, that is stunning information. How can one comfirm it?

Many biographies of JW detail his journey from the USMC to Navy medical to Howard University (Masters in English), and to Chicago Divinity School and United Theological Seminary. Unless those divinity schools have such a degree, I’d be inclined to doubt it.

He might have written such a paper for any of those schools, but that’s hardly the same thing as getting a master’s in the subject.
