In his birth certificate speech this morning Barack Obama called Donald Trump a “carnival barker.”
It must be more of that new tone we were promised.
Here’s the video of his birther presser:
Here’s a partial transcript:
I’ve provided additional information today about the site of my birth. “Yes, I was in fact born in HI on Aug. 4, 1961.” Over the past 2 1/2 years I have watched with puzzlement this controversy. Normally I wouldn’t comment on this. But the prominent news story was about my birth certificate, not the budget. I want to make a larger point. We have enormous issues we are facing. Which will generate huge and fierce debates. We are not going to be able to come together in a bipartisan fashion if we get distracted by sideshows and carnival barkers. I have every confidence that the US will come out on top.
Just wondering… So why did you spend millions to hide this document Mr. President?
