It's also possible Donald Trump is actually a disguised giant lizard.

A certificate of live birth is not the same as a birth certificate. Unlike a birth certificate, a certificate of live birth doesn't prove where a person was born it just proves that someone was born, somewhere alive. The only living person who says that she was present for Obama's birth is is grandmother in Kenya.

Ultimately nothing can be proven. People can lie. Documents can be forged. Photos can be faked. Records can be altered. The whole universe may have been created last week with all our memories implanted.
Anyone who asks questions about "is it possible that [unlikely thing]" is asking stupid questions.

It's also possible that trump doesn't actually give a shit- this headline is super misleading compared to the content of the article. A reporter kept asking him irrelevant questions and he said something that would shut him up and move on.
It even says in the article that he didn't want to get into that conversation and just wanted to move on.
Obama released his birth information a long time ago when this was a hot button issue and for some reason people still bring it up like its a relevant problem in current context.

The reason is to distract from real issues like our border.
