Hold on to your proverbial hats, Birtherism is back !!!

CANTON, Ohio — Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said in an interview here that he remains unwilling to say that President Obama was born in the United States, that he is more bullish than ever on his chances to win and that he is not exploring the launch of a new media company in case he loses the race.

Trump also made a far-from-subtle push — in the interview and in a letter from his doctor released Thursday — to be seen as vigorous and healthy as his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, returned to the campaign trail after being treated for mild pneumonia.

He should put down his clip board and never "practice" journalism again.

And the media will continue to have a negative focus on Hillary.

He better be called on this at the debates or else. I want to see him asked about everything from Birtherism to Taco Trucks.

Bullsh*t outing with all their Projectionist flaky answer when doing interviews,and the so called Corporate Media and their Horse Race garbage,failed to ask any real meaningful questions of these Faketriots. Give us a break. They can't even produce a decent one sided poll without being Stupid.

"Who knows about Obama? ... Who knows, who knows? Who cares right now?... I have my own theory on Obama. Someday I will write a book, I will do another book, and it will do very successfully." - January 2016

That was 8 months ago. I doubt he's seen the light since then.
