As a new bit, Trump should start doing birtherism to white candidates. "People are saying Meatball Ron isn't a U.S. citizen, he was born in Italy. Why do they call him Meatball? Folks, he eats pudding with his fingers like some stupid Calabrian peasant. Sleepy Joe also said he was Irish before his mind was gone. They shouldn't be allowed to run, very unfair."

Where were you when Trump accused Chris Christie of being Tony Soprano's best hitman
Chris Christie is the Cuomos' Bobby Baccala, more and more people are saying it.
MSNBC columnist and former U.S. attorney Joyce Vance called Trump’s scrutinizing of Haley's citizenship "an offensive question that’s contrary to American values.
“The Founding Fathers imposed a restriction, but it’s hard to believe that it was meant to burden a second generation of American citizens born on American soil like Nikki Haley," Vance added. "But nonetheless, the question of the term ‘natural born citizen’ has not been fully fleshed out in the courts, and it may be that Trump is relegating us to more meaningless discourse in this area just like he did with the birther lies about Obama.”
Love how when a racist and xenophobic law is invoked to make racist and xenophobic political attacks, their response is not to point out that such a law should not exist in an actual democracy, but to argue that the Founding Fathers only intended to be xenophobic towards first-generation immigrants and not second-generation immigrants. I'm pretty sure that if the Founding Fathers heard about this they'd be more offended to learn that women and non-white people were allowed to run for office in the first place.
In Soviet Bolivia, Cults of Personality are maintained to support rigid adherence to the state and its institutions.
Now let me tell you have sacred the words of these 18th century slave-owning plutocrats were...
Playing the classics.
The GOP base fucking hates Haley. The only people who are supporting her are the George Conway-ass Never Trump type Republicans and there’s 10 MAGA types for every one of them. Bet this makes Trump even more popular.
bit idea: attack trump for never having been born at all
Trump's pushing of the false birther claim comes as Haley, one of his top GOP opponents for the 2024 presidential election, closes in on his lead in New Hampshire. A new CNN poll conducted by the University of New Hampshire showed that Haley has garnered 32 percent of likely votes from GOP primary voters compared to Trump's 39 percent.
Copium, Haley will win.
Also, Republicans (non MAGA "moderate" ones) from 2008 did the same with Obamna, it's always been in the Republican playbook
Trump hates birthers, anti-natalism gang.
Cool, I was getting sick of all the 2016 reruns. Finally they’re bringing back the real nostalgia.
wild how "this person is not a real american bexause ______” is becoming so common for whatever politician to invoke... trump in particular would love to just designate anyone who's not maga as not an american. but the democrats are even more invested in american exceptionalism, they've been using "donald trump was not elected by real americans" since 2016 with russian interference.
