Donald Trump is at it again.

The real estate mogul is still expressing his skepticism about President Obama’s birthplace — an issue he repeatedly raised in 2011.

The conservative business man appeared on ABC’s This Week Sunday morning and readdressed his concerns regarding Obama’s nationality.

“Was there a birth certificate? You tell me,” he said to ABC’s Jon Karl. “Some people say that was not his birth certificate. I’m saying I don’t know. Nobody knows.”

His statement comes less than a year after he made a video on his birther conspiracy theories and offered Obama $5 million if he released his college application and passport records.

The White House released the long-form version of the president’s birth certificate in April of 2011 in response to questions on whether he was born in the U.S.

Weeks later, Trump declared the White House produced inauthentic documentation and claimed that the birth certificate was fake, despite the fact that the document clearly states that Obama was born at 7:24 p.m. on Aug. 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii.

The document was also signed by the delivery doctor and Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham Obama.
