My guess is: The Return of the Birf Sirtificut

I mean he can't possibly pass over this as his attack on Harris, can he?
(Neither of Harris's parents were US Citizens, as far as I can tell, but she was absolutely born in the USA, and consequently is a natural born citizen and fully qualified, but those are just facts.)

This is where he got on the crazy train for his political career, attacking Obama's legitimacy due to his being black, no I meant due to his being born in Kenya.

I remember watching that installment with the Bay City Rollers. The band's performance of "Saturday Night" was on a video which was not very well done, even for 1975.

. . . from using the phrase "Saturday Night Live" in its Saturday late night show for the 1975-1976 season. For that season, the NBC show was titled simply "Saturday Night" or "NBC Saturday Night."

When Barack Obama ran for President, the wing-nutz tried to claim that he wasn't born in the US. This time around they're claiming that American-born Kamala Harris "isn't really an American citizen."

Typical right-wing cafeteria reading of the 14th amendment. Their favorite Donald is disqualified by the 14th amendment's third section.

Kamala is. The 14th Amendment says that very clearly.

EDIT: Hello, right-wing lurkers out there. Don't take my word for what the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America says. Go and look it up for yourselves--if you've got the stones for it!

Seem to be male and put such high value on displaying what they see as their masculinity, I see no reason to feel embarrassed about kicking them in their sensitivities.

Maybe I’ll relent if they start weaving and wearing flower-crowns, singing kum-by-yah and adopt strict vegan diets. In the meantime, however…

“Troll-hattan” was a word thought up by the makers of troll dolls during the troll toy crazy over 50 years ago. I simply dusted it off and repurposed it.

He should be asked about it if this comes up. He should be shed if his wife was a natural born citizen and if she is eligible to run on a national ticket.
