I'm not entirely convinced that Donald Trump's hair is from this planet.....

                                NEW YORK (The Borowitz Report)
 – A threat to the fledgling presidential campaign of Donald Trump 
emerged today, as a group of activists charged that Mr. Trump is not 
eligible to hold the nation’s highest office because his hair does not 
originate from the U.S.



The group, who call themselves “Balders,” claim that the hair-like 
substance that crowns Mr. Trump’s head is from a foreign country, which 
would mean that the candidate is less than one hundred percent American.



“Time and time again, Donald Trump has refused to produce a certificate 
of authenticity for his hair,” said Leeann Selwyn, a leading Balder.  
“This is tantamount to a comb-over of the truth.”



But if in fact Mr. Trump’s distinctive mane turns out to be of foreign 
origin, such a revelation need not be fatal to his presidential hopes, 
says Professor Davis Logsdon, who has studied the history of 
presidential hair at the University of Minnesota.



“Remember, several of our greatest early presidents, like George 
Washington and Thomas Jefferson, had hair that originated elsewhere,” 
Mr. Logsdon says.  “The only thing that could kill Trump politically is 
if his hair turns out to be from France.”



At a GOP event in Iowa, Mr. Trump made no reference to the Balders 
controversy, and instead sounded an upbeat theme: “If I am given the 
chance to do the same magic I did for NBC, America will be the number 
four country in the world.”



In a piece of good news for Mr. Trump, a new poll showed a majority of 
likely voters agreeing with the statement, “Donald Trump being sworn in 
as President would be a great last scene in a Planet of the Apes remake.”
