Donald Trump now says he believes President Obama was born in the USA: Has Trump changed his mind or is a different personality speaking?

Since it is a well-known fact that President Obama was born in the USA, most people have assumed that Donald Trump always knew it, but had only pretended to believe otherwise, because of racism and/or political advantage.

But that assumption entails the further assumption that Trump is an excellent actor, because he couldn’t have been a leading “birther” if other birthers had sensed he was insincere. So if Trump is not an excellent actor, then he must have sincerely believed what he had said.

My hypothesis is that Trump both believes and disbelieves that Obama was born in the USA, and that he takes one or the other position depending on which of his personalities is speaking. For I still have not heard a better explanation than multiple personality for his pseudonyms, hair color changes, unpredictability, questionable memory, and self-contradictions.

Would Donald Trump be our first multiple personality president? I don’t know, since I have not studied presidents. All I know is that multiple personality has not stopped novelists from winning the Nobel Prize in Literature.
