Guardian - A leading professor of US constitutional law condemned Donald Trump for “playing the race card” by propagating the “totally baseless” claim that Nikki Haley, his surging rival for the Republican presidential nomination, is not qualified because her parents were not US citizens when she was born.“The birther claims against Nikki Haley are totally baseless as a legal and constitutional matter,” Laurence Tribe, professor emeritus at Harvard Law School, told NBC.
Two stunning moments at former President Trump's D.C. appeals court hearing today put on full display how bumpy this year's election could be:
- A lawyer for Trump — taking a legal argument to extreme lengths — said a president couldn't be prosecuted for ordering SEAL Team 6 to assassinate a political rival unless they were first impeached and convicted.
- Trump told reporters after the hearing there "will be bedlam in the country" if the case proceeds and hurts his chances in the election. MORE
Congress could be too feeble to counter Trump’s second-term plans
