Birther Donald Trump Produces His “Unofficial” Birth Certificate

From The Smoking Gun:

The multimillionaire developer has, overnight, become a leading voice of the “birther” movement, members of which doubt that President Barack Obama was born in the United States (and, thus, is unable to produce an authentic U.S. birth certificate).

“It’s inconceivable that, after four years of questioning, the president still hasn’t produced his birth certificate,” Trump told Newsmax. “I’m just asking President Obama to show the public his birth certificate. Why’s he making an issue out of this?” To prove how easy it was for a household employee to find his birth certificate, Trump, 64, crowed, “It took me one hour to get my birth certificate.”

As seen above, he provided the conservative web site with what he purports to be his birth certificate.

Except the document is not an official New York City birth certificate, but rather a document generated by Jamaica Hospital, where Trump’s mother Mary reportedly gave birth in June 1946. Official birth certificates are issued (and maintained) by the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene’s Office of Vital Records.

So, what is Trump trying to conceal?

  1. In the UK, “Trump” is a childish euphemism for “Fart”.

    I always get an immature flash of pleasure whenever I see the Trump Hotel in Vegas, imagining the cheap laughs that fellow Brits get out of it.

      Same in the US, except replace the word “euphemism” for “combover jackass who bankrupts everything he touches.”

  2. Mike K,

    Is this foil hat conspiracy theory ever going to go away? By now it has as much credibility as the “9/11 was in inside job” story.

  4. Justin,

    Here’s Trump’s next shitty move: acknowledge that he didn’t provide an authentic birth certificate, provide one three days later, hold his new birth certificate against Obama.

    • Tyler,

      And then what?

      /why is that written in the past tense? (I’m choosing to overlook the bigger question of why this is posted at all)
