Donald Trumps Challenge to President Obama

[MJAlltheWay24]

“If Barack Obama opens up and gives his college records and applications ... and if he gives his passport applications and records ... I will give to a charity of his choice - Inner City Children of Chicago, American Cancer Society, AIDS Research - a check immediately for 5 million dollars.

 

The check will be given within one hour after he releases all of the records ... he'll be doing a great service for the country if he does this.

 

If he releases these records, it will end the question and indeed the anger of many Americans ... they'll know something about their president ... their President will become transparent ... like other Presidents."

If I'm the Obama camp I come back with, "make it 50 or 100 mil and you have a deal."

Another scare tactic, it never stops!

I don't think Obama's camp will give into Trump, and I don't really think they should. But I do find the interaction on my social network when people are discussing it to be pretty interesting.

This should be Obamas response - " Whats $5M to a "man" like me."

Another publicity stunt by Trump to get his name in the paper.

Trump just needs to let it go. We are down to the final days of the Obama presidency. However, I join The Donald and throw in $5 of my own if he releases the records.

I can't keep up with all of Trump's craziness. What does he think will be in the transcripts?

[UKMustangFan]

This is supposed to be his "bombshell"?

 

Idiot. Go away. You hinder your "cause" more than help it.

[jericho]

Trump will pay it regardless since he mentioned it. Why dont he pay Obama 10 millon to quit the election. And a college scholarship for both girls to college of choice and for Michelle, a full paid for vacation, with no 90 min. tour to have to go through.

Whatever you think of Trump or this stunt, it is a great opportunity for some charity. If there is nothing to hide why wouldn't Obama do this in a second?

[cammando]

Not a Trump fan but he is smart. I'm sure he already knows whats in the documents he wants Obama to produce. Just seeing if he will come clean on his own. Like woodsrider said. If Obama has nothing to hide he would be a total idiot not to produce...

Does put him in a interesting position doesn't it? If Obama doesn't play along he has basically taken $5mm out of a charity's hands and gives the impression that he is indeed hidding something.

I'd much prefer him to just say:

 

 

 

You're Fired.

Who are top 5 donors to Obama, Romney campaigns? - Associated Press - POLITICO.com

 

 

Speaking of money, I found this artcle and thought it interesting.

 

The difference in amount donated to the Romney campaign as opposed to the Obama campaign was unbelievable. Another difference was the age of those donating to each campaign.

 

No Jay Z or Trump though.
