The Donald Wants You

In addition to hosting a top-dollar fundraiser for Mitt Romney next week, Donald Trump is also participating in a promotional stunt for Romney wherein you can win dinner with "The Donald" if you contribute $3 to the Romney Campaign.

Yes, that's Mitt Romney's signature on the poster of birther Donald Trump asking you for a $3 donation.

As recently as two days ago on May 22nd, Donald Trump tweeted to ask what President Obama's college applications say about his place of birth. That's not merely a wink and a nod, it's an accusation of fraud.

Does this mean birtherism is now an official component of the Romney campaign?

As long as Donald Trump is serving as the "single most significant surrogate" for Governor Romney, as his PR staff asserts, I count this as a defacto endorsement of birtherism.

If you were to draw any amusement out of this situation, it would have to be from the fact that Donald Trump doesn't really care if Romney wins or not. This is all about The Donald, and Mitt Romney is just along for the ride.
