Many people (namely Samantha Bee and her staff) are saying that Donald Trump can't read.

On the latest episode of Full Frontal, Bee attempted to prove beyond reasonable doubt that Donald Trump is illiterate. Using paper-thin evidence and plenty of Trumpisms, Bee's sort-of-fact-based argument will get you there if you really want to believe it. Sound familiar?

Bee ends her segment by challenging Trump to prove her wrong by releasing a video in which he reads Barack Obama's longform birth certificate.
