It has zero relevance to anything, or anyone. It just feeds the birthermadness and Teabagger hate. They have that stokes already.

He is a total idiot.

and the check must clear, of course.

John McCain was THIRD FROM THE BOTTOM of his college graduating class at the Naval Academy in Annapolis. Did anyone even mention it? The blatant rascism in the GOP is disgusting. I don't see how any African American can associate themselves with a low life like Trump.

He wasn't satisfied with the long form birth certificate, he won't be satisfied with anything Obama could release. So no charity money.

Every single time he has ratcheted up wingnuts all over the country, invariably, his ultimate reveal hadthem all slinking back under their rocks in utter despair. Every time Trump opens his mouth and spouts birtherism, it is so outlandish and silly, that it ultimately helps the President. I wouldn't be surprised in the least if Trump isn't doing this on purpose to completely invalidate the birther nonsense. Watch him come out a week before election and endorse Obama!

Doesn't Warren Buffett still have the offer out that if a CEO can prove that a boss pays a higher tax rate than his secretary, that *he* will pay a million?

Well, this is Trump's chance to up the possible donation to charity by that amount.

if he produces it all and says $5m was just too much to turn down for (insert charity here), then BOOM! game over, four more years. I bet Romney would desperately try to make himself look great by matching the donation.
