Wait, why would black voters be upset if I insinuated President Obama is not a US citizen?
I mean, just because I pushed a hair brained unsubstantiated conspiracy theory for months that somehow the first African American President was born in Kenya even though clear and uncontroverted documentation indicates he was born in Hawaii....what about that would make them so angry?
I mean, what is with the Blacks, whose lives are so currently worthless and meaningless, and who should definitely vote for me so they won't get shot? Didn't they see me call out my African American? And I definitely don't know who David Duke is or why I shouldn't accept his endorsement, but sure, I'll reject his endorsement, I guess, if that's what they want.

Since launching his presidential campaign, however, Trump has largely ignored what used to be his signature issue. Fox’s Bill O’Reilly broached the subject last night:
O’REILLY: Do you think your birther position has hurt you among African Americans?
TRUMP: I don’t know. I have no idea. I don’t even talk about it anymore, Bill…. I guess with, maybe some. I don’t know why. I really don’t know why. But I don’t think – very few people, you are the first one that’s brought that up in a while.
For the record, Trump fielded a question about this as recently as Monday – the day before this O’Reilly interview. When the candidate said no one has brought up this issue “in a while,” that clearly wasn’t true.
