Trump: It Was My Idea that Bin Laden Was in Pakistan
May 11, 2011 5:34 P.M. By Katrina Trinko

From a CNN report about the speech Donald Trump delivered today in New Hampshire:

During his second trip to the early presidential contest state of New Hampshire, the famously confident Trump said he appeared on television “a few weeks ago” saying bin Laden was in Pakistan but that “nobody else picked it up.”

“You tell them (Pakistan) we’re not giving you any money unless you hand over to us Osama bin Laden and everybody looked at me like eh, nobody else picked it up,” Trump told a crowd at the Chamber of Commerce Nashua Expo. “That’s what I hate about politics. You know when I buy a piece of real estate I own it, OK? When you come up with a good idea in politics, if they like it they take it and they say I have an idea and you know, by that time most people forgot it was Trump’s idea so Trump doesn’t get any credit. I love to get credit.”

Er, genius, people have been saying for years that Bin Laden was hiding out in Pakistan.

Why is it that this bufoon always needs to take credit for everything.

Another full-of-himself, narcissistic metrosexual.

Just like 0bamao.

We don’t need another one of those, regardless of ideology.

It just may be that we did finally threaten to take away some of that aid.

Except....Hillary went into a tirade one day and said it out loud, too...

Maybe it was the idea that if everybody is saying it....and we know it....maybe it is time to move.

Agreed! But I’ll take him over Obama anyday.

Trump is...and always has been...a carnival barker.

Appreciated that he was focusing some attention on Obama...but he’s not to be taken seriously by reasonable people.

As I keep saying to my leftist acquaintances.....osama bin laden was not killed by hussein barak... hussein has not shown me proof that he did it. until he shows photos and show the video he and hilarious clinton were watching, I will keep believing hussein barak obama is a fraud and a liar.
greetings from soon to be EUrabia.

But it sure is fun watching the media have kittens every time Trump opens his mouth.

... and I thought he had moved to Florida, changed his name to “Ben Lauden” and was busy selling clapped-out used cars (and camels) on e-bay!

Trump dropped the ball regarding the BC.

He was about to score a touchdown, and then gets marginalized with a BC that the whole internet is saying is a fake, and the experts are showing easily why it’s a fake.

So why isn’t Trump taking this to the end, and demanding Obama explain why he released an OBVIOUSLY phony document?

Why not throw together a news conference. Have a panel of distinguished photoshop experts....Trump can narrate...and let them show why the document is a phony.

Surely there is someone in the media who will report this. The man is getting audiences....so if you’re going down, why not take Obama with you?

The guy is so desperate for attention. That's the last thing we need in DC.

Only conspiracy nutjobs are pushing the fake meme. Everyone else has moved on.

“a few weeks ago” saying bin Laden was in Pakistan but that “nobody else picked it up.”

Lol, people have been saying that since Tora Bora. I think some people even thought he was in Pakistan during Tora Bora, and said so at the time. Proves DT has been paying ZERO attention. Guess he woke up a couple of months ago and thought, "Gee, I'd like to be President."

That's EXACTLY who he reminds me of too. We just came back from France, and the least reverent church we were in was by far the one housing Napoleon's tomb. I don't think there was enough room for his ego and God both.
