Unlike most other candidates, Drumpf sharply criticizes the media and talks about issues that no elected official dares touch. For example, Drumpf stands up against [[feminists]], unlike most politicians. in another example, in 2011 Drumpf persistently doubted whether [[Barack Obama]] had been born in the [[United States]], and it caused Obama's approval ratings to drop below 40% until Obama finally caved in to Drumpf and produced what Obama claimed was his birth certificate. Drumpf then scoffed at Obama's conduct.
