About the birther deflection

D

The Obama birth certificate issue is a patently transparent attempt at deflection by the media, as they attempt to keep Hillary from totally tanking.

That the media[!] would be complicit in such a thing is a way bigger story than Birther Gate and probably warrants its own thread.

But I was bored and did some research and found that, in the early 90's, Barack Obama himself claimed to be born in Kenya. Since I wasn't sure of the source I went to the [at least quasi-liberal] fact checker Snopes:

http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/birthers/booklet.asp

And sure enough, Obama---or someone posing as Obama, wrote a biography that claimed he was born in Kenya. This was explained away as a mistake by someone besides Obama, who was writing Obamas biography.

One would think he'd write it himself but whatever.

Whether you choose to believe it was a mistake is up to you. The most likely explanation for it is Obama found it expedient to 'have been born in Kenya' at some point in his life. Ostensibly, as means to boost his stock amongst his liberal Harvard peers. He did go on to edit the Harvard Law Review.

But it's all clear as mud. Chalk it up to racism lol.

Deflection? lol

Trump ran with this lie for better than 5 years.

You're a fucking idiot if you call the current situation "deflection".
 
To recap:

Trump holds an event to champion his new hotel.

During the event, he takes 7 seconds to mention that his handlers want him to put the birther campaign to rest before the debates next week.

The media is complicit?

Really lol?

Why are all media lemmings running in the same direction on something nobody has talked about since at least 2012?

You don't really think the media was there to hear about the hotel, right?

Bullshit. Trump kept it alive long after that.

Quit embarrassing yourself by trying to cover for this pathological liar. The birther movement is his baby. He owns it and now he's being held just a little accountable for it.

You can counter the Snopes link I presume?

You're delusional if you think Birther Gate has damaged Trump. He played the media like a fiddle.

With luck I'll get to enjoy at least four years of it lol.

I've read it and seen the explanation for that mistake.

Are you still an idiot birther? Do yourself a favor and educate yourself, moron. Trump shit in his own bed on this one and is too much of a pussy to stand up and take a few questions about it. A pathologically lying pussified fraud.

They say you should never game a gamer lol.

Trump knew it was a set up. He said Barack was born in Hawaii, period. In one short sentence he deflated the issue, then he went about showing off his new hotel---that was finished ahead of schedule.

The media got gamed. Even if you don't like Trump you have to like that.

Unless you like a corrupt and incompetent media.

He shit in his own bed on this one. You can apologize for the pathological liar all you want, but he owns this one. And he left the equally uninformed Republican majority, who are birthers, holding the bag.
 
Btw, I've never given any serious credence to Obama's place of birth controversy.

Even if his biographer claimed he was born in Kenya lol.

Keep telling yourself that I guess lol.
 
This thread illustrates the near-incomprehensible level of denial that Trump's sycophants are in.

Trump claims for YEARS that Obama is not natural born. He says he has a "team of investigators" in Hawaii, and can't believe what they're finding - that America will be shocked. He stokes the racist flames of the birther movement & milks it for all its worth.

Then, he says "oh, Obama was born here...let's move on."

Can you complete idiots hear yourselves? Seriously?

Was Obama's biographer racist lol?

You're an embarrassment to humankind, lol.

Obama's own biographer claimed he was born in Kenya for crying out loud lol!

You won't admit it, but Obama very likely let it slide because he knew a liberal institution like Harvard would appreciate it.

You basically have no issue. If you want to pretend otherwise it's up to you.
