Donald Trump's former campaign manager on Tuesday suggested President Obama concealed his birthplace by not releasing his college transcripts.
Corey Lewandowski, now a CNN contributor, remarked on the issue during a panel discussion on the network about Obama's criticism of Trump, the Republican presidential nominee.
"The question was, did he get in as a U.S. citizen or was he brought into Harvard University as a citizen who wasn't from this country? I don't know the answer," he said.
Lewandowski said earlier that Obama was "fair game" for attacks if he continued to rip Trump.
Political commentator Angela Rye interjected that Trump "has been attacking the president long before he began campaigning."
"He is the one who was the spokesperson for the birther movement and was calling for transcripts and saying that the president was an Affirmative Action admittee of Harvard," she said.
"Did he ever release his transcripts?" Lewandowski shot back. "Or his admission to Harvard University? ... The answer is no."
The White House released Obama's long-form birth certificate in 2011 after pressure and accusations by Trump.
Lewandowski later said he wasn't questioning whether Obama was from the U.S.
Grow a new garden in that worm dirt.
Met him once. Not impressed. He comes off as a real grouch and takes the word, "miser", to a whole new level when it comes to feeding his inmates. He can tell you to the 1/2 penny.
You people in the drum circle are killing us.
The birther issue is DEAD
Smart move. Barack Hussein Obama ll was born in Hawaii in January on the 8th, in 1961, his mother was shown as Anna Obama in the 1961-62 Seattle directory, she considered putting him up for adoption in April 1961 when he was three months old.
The question isn't so much where was zero born, it's who the heck were his parents?
He is out the door with the loot, been here sleeping on the couch for 8 years.
Are you bloody crazy?
Obama is past that bullet
Thought he was running against Hillary.
you know nothing
so you swear and insult me
not impressed
Oh I don’t know - look around. The world has been destabilized since the Presidency of the leading country in the world, the U.S., has fallen to an unknown islamist. He has weaponized populations to destabilize this country, impose costs on states and municipalities for the care of illegal aliens. Generated unrest in Egypt, Libya, Syria, and caused weaponized populations to invade Europe resulting in an enormous increase in terrorist attacks there. He has sown unrest in this country and he has encouraged attacks on police. He has coerced schools to accept all manner of sexual perversion. He has given enormous sums of money to terrorist controlled countries, and has enabled their eventual acquisition of nuclear bombs. Just a few things.
Death and chaos. That’s where it’s led.
Can Trump FOCUS on Hillary?
She is a BROAD ASS TARGET
Angela Rye must not recall that it was Hillary in 2007-2008 who created the Birther movement.
Bombshell: ‘Washington Post’ Confirms Hillary Clinton Started the Birther Movement
by John Nolte 26 Sep 2015
“New analysis from the Washington Post removes any doubt that the anti-Obama Birther movement was started in 2007 and 2008 by Hillary Clinton, her campaign, and her Democrat supporters.”
Understood so why don’t Trump focus on that?
If Hillary gets elected I am moving to Benghazi, because then i “know she will leave me alone”
Mr. Trump needs to kick BO right in the ... pecans.
Birther ping
Yep. Oh yeah he can that are held by the Federal government.
0bama needs to release his college transcript returns, in order to force Trump to release his tax returns.
What if Trump decided to point out to BO that, for all her flaws, at least his current opponent for the office of POTUS is a natural-born citizen of the United States, and thus eligible under Article II, unlike some people he could mention.
is he running against Obama?
He needs to target Hillary
Lets see how that works out
No offense meant but I cuss talking to Mamma
