"Donald Trump passed up yet another opportunity to say he accepts the fact that President Barack Obama was born in the United States, promising to make a "major statement" on Friday morning in front of his latest hotel project and telling Fox Business' Maria Bartiromo, "We have to keep the suspense going, OK?
But he also blamed his opponent Hillary Clinton for raising doubts about Obama's birthplace during the 2008 campaign, despite no evidence that she did so.
"I'm going to be making a major statement on this whole thing and what Hillary did" Trump told Bartiromo. "But no, she is the one that started it and she was unable or incapable of finishing it. That's the way it worked out. But I got him to release his birth certificate. So we will have a big statement and I hope you're going to be watching."
Asked minutes earlier on "Good Morning America" whether his father would say so himself, Donald Trump Jr. responded, "I don't know." But he said that a statement issued late Thursday by Trump campaign aide Jason Miller "should be the definitive end of it. We thought it was the definitive end when he acknowledged that, 'hey, we got Obama to release his birth certificate' then but, again, we want to talk about jobs. We don't want to talk about gossip."
