#100DaysOfTrump: Obama’s birth certificate is a scam, and 9 other horrible Trump gaffes

by Soma Oj.

Never has the media had so much good television content to lap up as they have in the last two years of Trump – his very dramatic campaign (racially divisive, if you ask an American) and then eventually emerging as the President to the surprise of 7 billion people who were sure that Hillary had it.

We strongly believe that if any other candidate had tried half of the things that Donald Trump did, or said any of the things he did; or even gesticulated the way he does, it may have spelt the end of that other candidate’s career. But Trump has done it; literally attempted political suicide so many times through his speech that the only way to make sense of it is to accept this new reality.

Still, it does not mean that we’ll starve ourselves of a good sense of humour in all of our bewilderment. Here, enjoy the top ten Presidential gaffes in honour of Donald J. Trump’s hundred days in office:

  1. The Announcement speech

If we are going to do this, we may as well start from the beginning. Trump’s announcement of his candidacy should have been his own political death – and we say this knowing fully well that speech doubled as his announcement of any serious interest in politics – but it was not and that should have been the number one indication that he came to stay.

From his extremely derogatory comments about Mexican immigrants who he called “rapists” to his comments about advising the U.S government to “take the oil from Iraq”, that who announcement was a gaffe.

Watch it all below:

2. His crazy reference to Megyn Kelly’s menstrual cycle

Did he really talk abut a famous reporter’s menstrual cycle on TV??????? The same female reporter who had asked him about his questionable past with women ??? What???

Trump later claimed he meant blood coming out of her nose and ears. You can believe what you will.

3. “Look at that face!”

In a Rolling Stone profile of him after he’d announced his candidacy, Donald made the worst comments possible about fellow G.O.P contender , Carly Fiorina. Someone had played a video that had her in it in front of him and he mindlessly blurted out:

“Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that?”

“Can you imagine that? the face of our next president?!” 

“I mean, she’s a woman, and I’m not s’posed to say bad things, but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?”

Trump later explained that he was making a reference to her persona and not her actual face. To that defence, we say: “yuuuuuuge fail”.

4. Learn your Quds from your Kurds

Background fact: The Quds refers to “The Quds Force, a unit of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard (because America has forces in the middle east in a bid to bring world peace, don’t ever miss the irony). The Kurds, on the other hand, are a minority ethnic group in Iraq who have suffered years of attacks under all the ISIS/American fighting.

And we think it’s okay if you had no idea there was a difference since you are not running for United States Oval Office. Trump was though (is now in charge of the Oval too) and on a radio show with Hugh Hewitt, here’s how  bit of the conversation went:

HH: I would thought that today, this is our sixth interview, I’d turn to some of the commander-in-chief questions. Are you ready for that?

DT: Okay, fine.

HH: Are you familiar with General Soleimani?

DT: Yes, but go ahead, give me a little, go ahead, tell me.

HH: He runs the Quds Forces.

DT: Yes, okay, right.

HH: Do you expect his behavior…

DT: The Kurds, by the way, have been horribly mistreated by …

HH: No, not the Kurds, the Quds Forces, the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Quds Forces.

DT: Yes, yes.

HH: …is the bad guys.

DT: Right.

HH: Do you expect his behavior to change as a result…

DT: Oh, I thought you said Kurds, Kurds.

HH: No, Quds.

DT: Oh, I’m sorry, I thought you said Kurds, because I think the Kurds have been poorly treated by us, Hugh. Go ahead.

A week later, he referred to the radio announcer – a man with such amazing questioning skills, he hosted some of the Presidential debates – as a third rate talk show host.

5. And who can ever forget this?

“ISIS is honoring President Obama. He is the founder of ISIS. He founded ISIS.”

As if our shocked “Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?????????” response was not long enough, Trump added:

And I would say the co-founder would be crooked Hillary Clinton” during this interview with ABC in August 2016.

6. “Hillary Clinton is a bigot”

This one is so good you have to look out for that woman’s reaction when the bomb drops around the 19th second.

7. Obama is not American

Remember when Trump was so certain Obama’s nationality was questionable?

8. And things did not let up after he became President either

In fact, he just seemed to pick up from where he left off. On Inauguration day, someone pointed out the fact thata the new President had used a Twitter header photo of democrats at Obama’s inauguration.

How weird is that?

It turns out sopmeone at the POTUS office chose a wrong header photo and then they proceeded to change it – twice!

9.  On Russia’s involvement in the US elections

Trump tweeted a lie on the 20th of March while FBI director, James Comey was being quizzed by Congress. He said the FBI director had testified that Russia was not involved but when lawmaker, Devin Nunes who questioned him about it Comey testified that the FBI came to believe that Russia was using “active measures” to hurt the Clinton campaign and help the Trump campaign.

“They wanted to hurt our democracy, hurt her and help him,” Comey said. “Putin hated Secretary Clinton so much that the flip side of that coin was that he had a clear preference for the person running against the person he hated so much.”

Watch out next time you try to take a spin on the truth that the world watched, President Trump!

10. He won but he won’t move on. So he’s failing he gaffed.

Riddle: Why did Trump have to lie about his votes? Oh sorry we answered that already. In February, after Hillary had slinked out of the scene and Obama was out golfing on islands, Trump stilled gaffed about elections that put him in power:

“We got 306 because people came out and voted like they’ve never seen before so that’s the way it goes. I guess it was the biggest Electoral College win since Ronald Reagan.

Trump actually won 304 electoral votes, because two electors refused to cast their vote for him when the Electoral College met.
