Donald Trump, the real estate mogul, reality TV star and de facto leader of the "birther" movement, says he is planning a "big announcement" about President Barack Obama.

 

"I have something very, very big concerning the president of the United States," Trump told "Fox & Friends" on Monday during a phone interview. "I will be announcing it sometime probably Wednesday and it's going to be very big."

 

"Will it change the election?" co-host Gretchen Carlson asked Trump.

 

"Possibly," Trump replied. "It's very big—bigger than anybody would know."

 

Trump—who has been live-tweeting during the presidential debates—said he would likely make the announcement on "the Twitter."

Trump is so ungodly and abrasively irritating. Fuck off, Toupee.

[Guest Phailadelphia]

Trump is a fucking idiot.

[Thanatos 2,847]

Oh dear.

 

He's already endorsed Romney, correct? So the only thing he could be doing is bringing the birther controversy back up.

 

If Romney is a smart man, he should be on the phone right now telling Trump "Please don't help me"

 

So true.

I feel bad for Americans who actually care about what Donald Trump thinks.

[SteVo+ 3,702]

Anyone catch the 3rd party debate on YouTube tonight? It was full of epic, IMO. And it really affirmed my enthusiasm for Gary Johnson. Like Jill Stein lives in this fantasy world of liberal fantasies, it's rather amusing.

[Favre4Ever+ 4,476]

What a joke... lol. Hopefully Obama just forges these documents, gives em to Trump, and good charities can get some much needed help.

That's it? That was his big announcement?

 

Edit: By the way, anyone see the irony in the Right calling for Obama's college transcripts while simultaneously making excuses for Romney's lack of tax returns?

Is Romney an illegal alien?

 

Don't get me wrong. Both need to happen, but they are very different situations.

Because Romney already released them?

I am curious why Obama won't release them. I really don't get what feasible reason he has for not doing so.

 

Edit: Also here, if you want to see it. Ignore his propaganda, and just scroll down.

Oh come on you and I both know those have been made to look as favorable as possible, nevermind that it's only ONE year. Everyone has released theirs for the past ~10 years.

It's actually the past two years, for '10 and '11. And I'm just saying, Romney actually has released something, Obama has released nothing about his college transcripts. So that's why they can get away with asking for one and not the other.

[BucD+ 648]

A counter offer has been made...

 

 

:rofl:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

....sounds like a fair deal to me....

My point still stands.

 

What is Trump even looking for in the transcripts anyway? What kind of relevance does it hold?

[blotsfan 2,112]

Proof that he went to Columbia, since some people don't even believe that.

[Favre4Ever+ 4,476]

I remember the Wall Street Journal randomly surveying 400 people from Obama's class (at Columbia), and no one had ever seen or heard of him.

 

There is no way you can afford schools like he went to without coming from a wealthy background... They'd probably show he was a foreign exchange student. And paid for these schools with scholarships for foreign exchange students and the like.

 

I don't know what else he is or would be afraid of the American people seeing... I don't really care if he had straight A's or not... No reason to seal his records based on grades, IMO.

Or perhaps he got in for the same reason Clarence Thomas got into Yale: affirmative action. That doesn't fit the conspiracy narrative though, does it?

 

If I were him, I wouldn't stoop to Trump's level either. Birthers aren't worth anyone's time.

Do college transcripts say you got in because of your skin color?

[Thanatos 2,847]

He's looking for evidence that Obama was let in as a foreign exchange student.

 

And I can honestly see no other reason why Obama would refuse to release them.

[Favre4Ever+ 4,476]

In perspective, a lot of candidates don't like releasing this information. Bush didn't want anyone seeing his... Probably for grade reasons. And the fact the he got in, probably, because of his daddy. lol.

 

It's not like it's unprecedented.

 

However, I think it's incredibly stupid for the Obama campaign to kill Romney over his tax work when they, themselves, are so mysterious. It's a joke. Even if they do get released, they are probably going to be edited, forged, altered, or changed in some way.

True, but I don't get why he would go to this much trouble. Didn't he use the legal system to prevent them from being released?

 

No one is seriously going to make the argument that bad grades in college = unable to lead... are they?

Edited October 25, 2012 by Thanatos19

[Favre4Ever+ 4,476]

Not sure. The colleges couldn't legally release his records without his permission anyway... I don't think he would really need to take any further action.

 

I don't think anyone cares about his grades... but information possibly regarding his father, his being a "foreign exchange student", and probably his attendance at socialist conferences would surface.

 

Obama LOVES LOVES (or his campaign rather) to pry into others private records and slander them for what he finds. It's campaign objective #1 every time he sets foot onto the campaign trial, and he does a great job of it.

 

Obama would never have become Senator without unsealing the records of his democratic and republican opponents. Guaranteed.

 

This whole... "Romney is rich, he doesn't pay taxes" thing might even win him re-election by a slim margin.

 

It's what he does. It's dirty.. but it's worked.

Considering the fact that 95% of all Republicans consistently call Obama a towelhead, Muslim faggot...yeah, I think they would.
