Drump has said many truthy things, but declaring the anti-Nazi Antifa a terrorist organization is the goose-stepping-ist truthiest thing he has ever said. Except, for, you know, the fact-ness of Drump saying his dad, the now dead Fred, was born in Germany. As recently as Tuesday, March 3, in a meeting at the White House with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, the doofus poofus POTUS claimed that his father was born in Germany.
"My father was born there. There are places that you sort of automatically very, very — feel warmly about." Like the birth-place of Hitler, amiright?
Donny-boy's dad was in fact born in New York City. We have, you know, THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE. Fred Trump was born in the Bronx, New York City on October 11, 1905. Specifically, he was born at home, at 539 East 177th Street. However, Donald Trump has repeatedly and incorrectly claimed his father, Fred Trump, was born in Germany.
• July 2025: At a bilateral meeting with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Trump said, "My father was born in Germany."
• April 2019: At a White House press briefing with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, Trump stated, "My father is German, was German. Born in a very wonderful place in Germany".
• July 2018: In an interview with CBS News, Trump claimed, "Don't forget both my parents were born in EU sectors... my mother was Scotland, my father was Germany".
• July 2018: During a NATO summit in Brussels, he told reporters, "I have great respect for Germany; my father is from Germany"
Who exactly is Trump trying to impress by saying his Pa was from om-papa Germany? He wasn't. But there is the historical fact, documented in police records, that Fred was arrested on May 31, 1927, during a Ku Klux Klan rally in Queens, New York. That's a good thing, yes?
