Trump said the following in the video below:

"I have a deal for the President---a deal that I do not believe that he can refuse, If Barack Obama agrees (or has the universities and colleges agree) to give all of his college records and applications and if he provides all of his passport records and applications, I will give to charity of his choice (inner city children in Chicago, American Cancer Society, AIDS research, etc,) a check for five million dollars.

"The check will be given immediately after he releases the records so stated, or causes said records to be released. If he chooses to do this, he will be doing a great service not only to the charity, but also a great service to the country and indeed, himself."

"If he releases these records, it will end the question, and indeed the anger, of many Americans," Trump added. He then closes with a deadline for his request: "The records must be given by October 31st at 5 p.m. in the afternoon."
