What a piker.

I will offer $20,000,000 to the charity of his choice if Barry at his next appearance dances the Charleston while juggling 5 ball.

I hope he takes me up on my sincere offer because I’m sure there is a great charity out there that could use $20,000,000.

You are all welcome.

Trump should go on TV every day to increase the amount of the donation by 5 Million Dollars between now and October 30th, just to keep the story out there.

Think of how much fun that would be...

Will he turn the records over for $10 Million?

How about $15 Million?

What’s the President hiding, that it is worth $20 Million Dollars that could go to orphan puppy veteran cancer victims?

Surely Obama will turn over a few scraps of paper for $25 Million!

... See how much fun this could be? You can’t have more fun for 30 Million Dollars!

The money would be ill spent. I think it would be better to let a contract and achieve long lasting results

My thoughts exactly. Give enough incentive and perhaps the records can finally see the light of day.

I like the idea of increasing the pressure every day. It only creates more doubt in the minds of the people about what he has to hide. lol!

I think that’s exactly how he should play it.

“What, this guy can’t give up some simple papers to help charity? What’s he hiding?”

This is a stupid stunt that will result in nothing except some brief publicity for Trump, and will have zero impact on the election.

Is this wishful thinking on your part? Obama released his "birth certificate" as a result of Trump's questions.

President Obama, love him or hate him, you do not know him.

He released basically the same thing he'd released before. And I think that was panned by all the birthers around here.

No we don't. And we won't get to know him any better as a result of Trump's stunt.

He should have specified the charity like St. Judes and let them apply some pressure. If the public knew he was holding back $5 mil from sick kids...

That’s exactly what happened about an hour ago here at my workplace.
An Obama supporter here from 2008 said, “Obama says he cares about the poor and all that, but won’t take up Trump on this? WTF?!”

The fact that Ubama cannot even consider this offer ought to give pause to anybody who is going to vote for him.

Trump knows Obama won’t pony up the documents for 5 million, but he also knows there are others who have access to those same documents who would. It’s not a challenge, it’s a bounty.

There is an interesting angle that most are missing. I suspect that Trump HAS this information. Issuing it might have played to Obama’s favor. So rather than do that, Trump is pressuring Obama to release it with the Oct 31 deadline. The inference is that, “if you don't come clean I will release it for you.”

Look for the pressure to build. It puts Trump in a great position since he can always hold back. But Obama can't escape that it is out there. Trump can even find a way to now get this information out there without necessarily having his name attached to it.

“It’s not a challenge..it’s a bounty!” hehehehe! Since he has to do this by Halloween, Trump can say “Mr. President, what’s it going to be? TRICK...OR TREAT? BOO!”
