Sheriff Joe Arpaio is firing back at CNN anchor Jake Tapper, accusing him of “trying to sandbag me” and of using the famous law-enforcement officer to “insult Donald Trump.” Last week, Tapper ripped into the Maricopa County, Arizona, sheriff for his refusal to give up the “preposterous notion” that President Obama’s birth certificate may have been forged. Apraio responded in kind in an interview Sunday with “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio,” broadcast on New York’s AM 970 The Answer and Philadelphia’s NewsTalk 990 AM and online. “Tapper was trying to sandbag me,” said Arpaio. “I’ll tell you why. He’s trying to insult Donald Trump. That’s why he connected me with it. “Donald Trump mentioned the birth certificate many times. If he’s so excited there, trying to badmouth me, why doesn’t he ask for our report? Nobody wants to read our report,” said Arpaio. Like the reporting you see here?

The sheriff said his team was still working on the case of Obama’s birth certificate, calling it a “fraudulent government document.” Arpaio stated: “Remember I had two press conferences a couple years ago. The media, all they wanted to know is why I am doing this. They didn’t care about the evidence we had. But we’re still working that.” “No, I don’t care where the president came from. I don’t care. I’m going after a fraudulent government document. I’ve been saying that from day one. So if he wants to criticize me, insult me, be my guest. It’s OK.” ‘Preposterous notion’ As WND reported, the birth certificate took center stage in Arpaio’s interview on CNN’s “The Lead” program last Thursday. Tapper said, “You’ve trafficked in this rather preposterous notion that Obama was not born in the United States and that he may have forged his birth certificate that he released.” He continued, “Why would you risk your credibility on issues you care about – like illegal immigration, like law enforcement – by getting involved in this nonsense?” “What do you mean ‘risk’?” Arpaio asked. “I’m the chief law enforcement officer elected by the people. I have a right to investigate and speak out. I’m not talking about where he came from. I don’t care where he came from. We’re working on a fraudulent, forged government document. That’s what we are doing.” Tapper interjected, “You’re maintaining that the birth certificate that the president of the United States revealed and released to the public, you’re maintaining that that is fraudulent?” “That’s right,” Arpaio responded. The CNN host asked, “Is there anyone, any credible law enforcement person outside of you and your organization and your contractors, who has any agreement with you on this?” “No, they haven’t looked at it,” Arpaio said. “What are you kidding? I’m probably the only law enforcement official who has looked into it. Nobody looks into it. They shy away from it.” Once again, a flustered Tapper interrupted: “Because the president was born in Hawaii.” “I don’t care where he was born,” Arpaio replied. “I’m talking about a fraudulent government document, a birth certificate. That’s all I’m concerned with. That’s a violation of the law.” Tapper further questioned the sheriff, asking if he came to his conclusion because “there are glitches in some of the printing.” Sheriff Joe said he wouldn’t “get into all the technical details” at that moment, but he added: “I’ve been around a long time. I’m not stupid enough to even talk to you about it if I didn’t think there was a lot of smoke and fire there.” ‘Fake’ document As WND reported July 5, Arpaio affirmed in a previous interview with “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio” he is “pretty well convinced” Obama’s birth certificate, as released by the White House in 2011, is a “fraudulent, fake document.” “I’ve been in law enforcement 55 years,” stated Arpaio. “I think I know a fraudulent, fake document. I’m not a computer expert. I rely on my people. But I’m pretty well convinced it’s a fake document.” Listen to “Aaron Klein Radio” clip of Joe Arpaio discussing Obama’s birth certificate:Trump snagged in Obama's birth-certificate war
