possibly. but wether it was a good or bad joke doesn't matter to the relevance of if it was a legally binding offer. to believe that the offer was legit you have to believe that a "reasonable man" could believe that there is the possibility that trump's father could have been an orangutan.

just that simple.

That is funny! Trump isn't even relevant to things that have to do with Trump.

one point of interest: trump released a NY certification of birth, the short form, the very thing he claimed was not legal proof of birth for obama.

Not an orangutan? DNA testing would show that. Further, Trump actually has a real birth certificate.

Maher is a smug, dull witted, pseudo-intellectual. He should pay up to Trump; being a liberal, of course he will welch on his bet.

Agreed. This can be completely settled by the exhumation of Fred Trump and a DNA analysis.

A birth certificate, real or otherwise, cannot actually prove paternity.

Maher is a smug, sharp witted comedian. He should continue to mock Trump at every conceivable opportunity.

trump produced for maher a contemporary state issued "certificate of birth".......... the exact same thing trump had previously stated wasn't legal proof of birth!

This is the second time you've brought that up.

Since it's been declared, by the powers that be, sufficient, why do you have a problem with it?

i have no trouble with the document itself. the reason i bring it up is that it beautifully demonstrates that trump is either being hypocritical or he is completely oblivious to any facts concerning the topic.

Try harder.

Trump is using what has been declared to be satisfactory. Can't find fault with that now, can we, no matter how much one dislikes him?

sure i can. trump has never retracted his statement that obama's COLB isn't sufficient evidence. this is the
epitome of hypocrisy. to claim something isn't proof for one person then use the exact same thing as proof for oneself.

if trump came clean and admitted he was wrong about the HI COLB i'd change my opinion but..... that hasn't happened yet.
