Did the birther-in-chief try to DELEGITIMIZE Obama's presidency?
He asked for a birth certificate that never showed up until years after the request. (Why show it years later?)
Pretty mild request compared to using the FBI to cover up your misdeeds and militarize against political opposition while using the IRS for the same ends.
Is it HIS turn?
I guess so. Ya know. That moderate press that isn't obviously the para military propaganda arm of the Democrat Party.
He asked for a birth certificate that never showed up until years after the request.
And it was only "requested" in the first place because Trump is openly racist. How may other Presidents did Trump deny were American?
Oh, just the black one? Gotcha.

LOL. Your fantasies just get more retarded by the second. Tell us again about Pizzagate, bronto. Liberals kidnapping kids and sexually assaulting them in the basement of a pizzeria without... Wait for it... A BASEMENT!!
LMFAO. You are like a child with the amount of BS which leaves your silly mouth. When you are ready to grow up and have an honest conversation, why don't you let us all know?
Or because he openly claimed to have been raised in a foreign country
No he didn't, you effing liar. He "openly claimed" to have spent four years as a child in Indonesia, between ages 6 and 10. He did not "openly" claim to have been born in Kenya, which is in Africa.
Stop lying for ten seconds you idiotic Nazi twit. It's pathetic.
Ignoring that economy at all costs eh Al? Oh I forgot, the President's job is to smile big and invite rappers who hate the police into the Whitehouse...
Before he took office in 2008, Barack Obama vowed to end America’s grueling conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. During his second term, he pledged to take the country off what he called a permanent war footing.
“Our systematic effort to dismantle terrorist organizations must continue,” he said in May 2013. “But this war, like all wars, must end. That’s what history advises. It’s what our democracy demands.”
But Obama leaves a very different legacy as he prepares to hand his commander-in-chief responsibilities to Donald Trump.
U.S. military forces have been at war for all eight years of Obama’s tenure, the first two-term president with that distinction. He launched airstrikes or military raids in at least seven countries: Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Somalia and Pakistan.

Now NOM that is what the NOBEL PEACE PRIZE is all about LMMFAO !!!!!!!!!
Among the many things President Obama will be handing off to his successor this week: stubborn wars in three separate countries.
Obama came to office eight years ago vowing to end U.S. military interventions in Iraq and Afghanistan. Yet President-elect Trump stands to inherit the nation's longest war ever in Afghanistan, as well as renewed fighting in Iraq that has spread to Syria.
The outgoing president was reminded of the persistence of those wars at the pomp-filled farewell ceremony the Pentagon put on for him him earlier this month at a nearby military base.
"Mr. President, we've been at war throughout your tenure," said Gen. Joesph Dunford, chosen by Obama in 2015 to be chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. "That's a period longer than any other American president."
That's right: Obama is the first president to serve eight years and preside over American wars during every single day of his tenure. That's not what Obama wanted or expected.
The NOBEL PEACE PRIZE winner there NOM LMMFAO !!!!!!!!!!
Social Democrat is a lot different than "Democratic Socialist". Essentially, a Social Democrat keeps everything running the same--though, taxes corporations and the rich a lot more, with the idea that the money can be used for higher base wages, and expanded social programs.
Are you a "socialist" or a "social democrat", as you have stated before?--or, just very confused
I have never stated that I am a social democrat you delusional retard. Evidently, you are the one who is confused. What I have stated several times is that I'm a democratic socialist.
Perhaps you should go away and learn the difference between a social democrat and a democratic socialist, because -- I'll be honest -- you're annoying as hell.
Trump can do wrong, but seeing as this is the only option I’ll have to go for it.
Yes you can make the argument that trump and others (Clinton branch of the democrat party) used the birther movement to delegitimise Obama’s Presidency. That is NOTHING compared to the coordinated attacks by media, celebrities, politicians, activists and more attempting to delegitimise trump through foreign collusion, mental health, business dealings, false accusations of sexism, rape, racism etc. It’s been a non stop onslaught that nobody believes and has delegitimised the media instead
The only one "delegitimizing Trump", is Trump himself! Trump is the thing that "delegitimizes" Roosevelt's statement that, "The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself." We MUST fear Trump!
In the Second New Deal, the Social Security Act was signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on August 14, 1935. The act laid the groundwork for the modern welfare system in the United States, with its primary focus to provide aid for the elderly, the unemployed, and children.
CRAZY AL you mean the Progressives started a welfare system abused by DEMORATS ?
