Simple question, simple answer
Did Donald J. Trump, POTUS, ever float the idea that Harris isn't eligible to be VP, after she was announced as Biden's pick for VP?
Or is this another media creation, as I suspect it is? Based on some so-called wild-eyed "trump supporter" somewhere on the internet.

A law professor wrote an op-ed piece analyzing the 12th Amendment legal arguments about what constitutes a "natural born" citizen eligible to hold the office of president. There is a minority legal view that someone with Kamala's birth circumstances with non-citizen parents is not eligible, which is based on the legislative record of arguments on the floor of the Senate at the time, but again, it is not the prevailing legal view. A reporter asked Trump about it and his response was something to the effect that yes, he saw the article but didn't care to comment further which somehow now translates into Trump himself putting forth the proposition and supporting it . . . just more TDS on display

Probably something the left conjured up so they could link it to the similar event with Obama.
He struck-out once, makes him look foolish trying it twice.

That would be the job of surrogates, how it is managed to hurt the opponents is key.

No, Trump never said this. Just more twisting by the media.

When asked directly last week in a daily briefing,, he replied he had not heard about that - he was sure the dems would have checked that out before naming her for Bisen.

Wow...it's insane how someone like myself, who didn't know the answer to the question I asked, would come away from all the media thinking Trump himself is saying Harris might not be qualified to be VP.
The media is truly ill.

The big bad media fake news, asks why he brought this up. Why would he Trumpites?
Trump Encourages Racist Conspiracy Theory on Kamala Harris’s Eligibility to Be Vice President
https://www.nytimes.com/live/2020/08...biden-vs-trump
President Trump falsely suggested that Kamala Harris, who was born in California, does not meet citizenship requirements.
“I heard it today that she doesn’t meet the requirements,” Mr. Trump said.
“I have no idea if that’s right,” he added. “I would have thought, I would have assumed, that the Democrats would have checked that out before she gets chosen to run for vice president.”
President Trump appeared to question the citizenship of Sen. Kamala D. Harris (D-Calif.), the presumptive Democratic nominee for vice president, on Aug. 13. https://wapo.st/2Y0QD81

He can bring up whatever he likes.
He never said she wasn't eligible to be VP.
So another lie. Nice.
And as for WHY he does this...it's because the media and you treat him with SO MUCH RESPECT, he does the same for his opposition.
Are you saying he should treat Harris and Biden with as much respect as he is shown?
Well then...I agree...and that's exactly what he is doing.

Love the newest rant by Nancy and the left that Trump is having mail boxes uprooted and discarded to prevent mail-in balloting. Only the deranged left could make this shit up. A little research revealed this is routine practice by the postal service. In some cases they're being removed and replaced by new boxes, in many cases they're being refurbished, painted, and placed back where they came from.
The democrats have totally lost it. They're worse than bad little kids. All their far-fetched accusations and fantasies just will not end. They need to be voting on machines in a mental institutions.

Show me specifically where he suggests ANYTHING.
THIS is what we call fake news, dude.
If there was any doubt, then THIS from the article.......
