Trump says he's not 'morally obligated' to defend Obama against claims
Washington (CNN)Donald Trump on Saturday said it is not his job to correct supporters' claims about the President, defending his decision not to take issue with a man who disparaged Muslims and said President Barack Obama is not an American.
Trump did not dispute the man's allegations made at a town hall event this week, and added that if someone criticized him to Obama, there would be "no chance" the President would come to his defense.
"Am I morally obligated to defend the president every time somebody says something bad or controversial about him? I don't think so!" he tweeted Saturday morning.
He then followed up by saying Obama would not have defended him in the roles were reversed.

what donald is saying is that he agrees 100% with the birther man's allegations....and his sycophants will take him higher in the polls.

But is that his name wrapped in a Bible?
And he's surrounded by flags, which he is taller than for effect.
Fascist in the making.
