Donald Trump Makes An Ass Of Himself In Florida, Surprises No One

http://blogs.villagevoice.com/runninscared/2012/08/donald_trump_ma.php




Well, the sun came up yesterday, which means one thing: Donald Trump humiliated himself by rambling on and on (and on) about fictitious birth certificates, Hawaiian twins, and a Kenyan Manchurian Candidate.

The bumbling billionaire was near Tampa, Florida last night, where -- yet again -- he spouted off some of his perpetual "birther" propaganda in front of a crowd of people who all should have been thinking one thing: "is this guy seriously still talking about this?"

The Donald was presented last night with the Sarasota County Republican Party's "Statesman Of The Year" award, which he used as platform to weigh in on a joke presidential candidate Mitt Romney made last week about President Barack Obama's birth certificate -- which has now led to the unfortunate resurrection of the "Birther" debate.

"He did make a joke, and some people thought it might not be a joke," Trump told the group. "[The Birther controversy] happens to be an issue that a lot of people believe in."
