JAY LENO: You mentioned Trump. What do you make of all this nonsense over the birth certificate? It's hilarious.
WANDA SYKES: It's hilarious, and it's ridiculous. Like, what? Really? I'm sorry, I think the whole... I'm really disappointed in him because you would think that he would know better but it's, it all just drips with racism. You know? Because how many presidents or any politician has had their nationality questioned like this?
It's like, 'How did we get this black president? He must be from somewhere else. Where's he from?'
You know? And it's like, well, if you say it's racist, they go, 'No, no, no. It's not racist. His father's Kenyan.'
Yeah, but he was born here. He was born here. Hawaii is a state, you know.
...And then you have, you know, then they say, 'Well, he has a funny name.' You know? Barack Obama. There's been white guys with funny names. Newt Gingrich. What the hell is a Newt Gingrich? Oh, no, that's acceptable. Where was Newt Gingrich born? Atlantis? What the hell?
Ron Paul. Ron Paul what? You got two first names. Ron Paul what? What are you hiding, Ron Paul? What are you - Ron Paul Hitler? What's your name? What's your name? Really?
LENO: Have you watched Celebrity Apprentice? Do you watch any of those shows?
SYKES: And that's another thing, because this was the first season of Celebrity Apprentice that I was watching and enjoying, and then Trump just went all stupid. So I can't look at his dumb face. I can't watch. So I stopped watching the show. He ruins everything.

Wanda Sykes is not a racist! I am A Retired Army Soldier. Before hearing these comments .I knew Trump was a racist long time ago!This is nothing new. When you make a statement like " I never had a problem with Blacks !" (%#+?<$$#?). ( Trump making this comment a couple weeks ago). I know I have lived longer than you "Young Man". Hoorah on being a Marine. Through life experiences you will learn what a racist is.
Racism has gone underground, so insidious, so disruptive. Unless you have lived your life as a colored woman, you can't tell me what its like.
Fortunately, our president is above it all. It's something we should all aspire to be.
Wanting to know the truth about a president who is pushing the country towards a socialist agenda makes makes you a racist ?
He is trying to change an awful lot of our Constitutional rights and is trying to rule us instead of being for us , I personally think the ones who are racists are the ones who dont question the actions the President has been taking,plus there are allot of double standards when it comes to racism .
Perfect example Chris Rock and Wanda Sykes oh it's cause there's a black man in the White House, it could never be just that he is doing a terrible job because they wont allow themselves to ever see that!
