Trump totally outsmarted Obama on this.
Obama put himself in a lose/lose situation because its not just the Birth Certificate, Obama just doesn't share any traditional values, he does not believe in American greatness and he has no idea how an economy actually works all of which adds up to making his birthplace questionable.
Obama played into Trump's hands. If he had the certificate all along, why wait until Trump pressured him? Now Trump can say, "I got him to released the certificate, watch what else I can make him do."
Obama = Total Rube
No, Trump made himself out to be more of a ******* idiot than most of us gave him credit for - which is quite an accomplishment- because believe me, us normal folk thought he was a ******* total idiot a long time ago.
In fact, Trump has played into Obama's hands. Us normal folk knew that no matter what Obama did with regard to his birth certificate, the birfers would still find a reason to disbelieve. And so has been the case. All Trump has done has highlighted something us normal, sane folk have known all along - most birfers are bigots, neocon whackjob losers who add 2 and 2 and come up with 5.....Obama just got rid of their last reason for being such, yet still....
