Donald Trump warms up CPAC crowd with birther dogwhistle


You gotta' give Donald Trump credit, because he knows how conservatives get their jollies: by pretending that President Obama isn't a real American.
Our current president came out of nowhere. Came out of nowhere. In fact, I’ll go a step further: the people that went to school with him, they don’t even know him. They never saw him. They don’t know who he is. It’s crazy. [Wild applause.]
With no track record — and, I will tell you, he’s got nothing to criticize. He’s a wonderful guy, he’s a nice man, but there was no record. Nothing to criticize. He didn’t go in wars. He didn’t go in battles. He didn’t beat this one, that one, have enemies all over the place. Nobody knew who the hell he was. He’s now our president! He’s our president! [laughter]
Trump, who got a standing ovation at the end of his speech, told the audience he had what it takes to win the GOP nomination as a conservative, but that he wouldn't make a decision until June.
