They look almost dazed or like they are making comments under duress. I won't be surprised if many of them won't be able to vote for him in November.

up and defend him on this judge issue, and the guy was absolutely pathetic. He kept whining about how this was an "ambush interview" - he use the expression 2 or 3 times in the course of the interview!

Yeah, what DID they find?" He never let us know. It's pretty late, but now's the time to release that information.

Obama's birth announcement which was printed in 2 Hawaiian newspapers. Those
papers got their data from the dept. of health which got their data from somebody
@ the hospital who had to have given a phoney birth annoucement for Obama along
with all the correct births and deaths on that day in August of 1961 for the birthers
story to hold true. Either that or Obama has a time machine which let him go back
in time and "put the fix in."


Fox, Lindsey, Morning Joe, and all the rest did not call Trump out for his racist
"search for the real story" behind President Obama's birth. Trump knew what
he was doing in pandering to the 20 to 30% of Americans who could not stomach
a black man being POTUS so they latched on to that birther crap.


"A new HuffPost/YouGov poll finds that 53 percent of Republicans still doubt Obama’s citizenship."

They worked very hard to build up this house of cards, they have no idea what to do with Dump. We never gave them much credit to begin with, so it finally had to happen. Their plutocrat showed up to lie and steal and cheat the people, just like they do.

They live on lies, Newt and Rove will flip their lids and hyperblovate which will be fun to watch.

Is trump hoping to lose in November? He can't be that stupid to say these things as the nominee.

The master plan, IMO is for Hillary to win this in November.
