THE ELECTION IS OVER - WHY DOESN’T “DONALD BIRTHER TRUMP” SHOW HIS COLLEGE RECORDS & BIRTH CERTIFICATE? WHILE HE’S AT IT SHOW HIS FOREIGN BORN WIVES & CHILDREN’S BIRTH CERTIFICATES? - How do we know their not ILLEGAL ALIENS? What’s the DIFFERENCE between TRUMP’S foreign born wives and PRESIDENT OBAMA’S father except gender??? - FACTS: ALL 3 of TRUMP'S sociopath, animal abusing, loser kids - have FOREIGN BORN, non-American mothers - The ONLY DIFFERENCE is that PRESIDENT OBAMA had a foreign-born Black Father with an American born White mother? - WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE? - RACE IS REALLY THE ISSUE HERE NOT PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP!
