Obama Takes On Trump, Releases Birth Video At White House Correspondents Dinner
Last night's annual White House Correspondent's dinner was an evening of zings and birthing videos, with President Obama and host Seth Meyers both delivering pretty hilarious political one-liners. But most of all, it was a night to ream Donald Trump, who sat by awkwardly as both the President and Meyers skewered him repeatedly. You can watch the whole event here, but scroll down for lots of highlights and video clips:
Donald Trump is here tonight! Now, I know that he's taken some flak lately, but no one is happier, no one is prouder to put this birth certificate matter to rest than the Donald. And that's because he can finally get back to focusing on the issues that matter -- like, did we fake the moon landing? What really happened in Roswell? And where are Biggie and Tupac?But all kidding aside, obviously, we all know about your credentials and breadth of experience. For example -- no, seriously, just recently, in an episode of Celebrity Apprentice at the steakhouse, the men's cooking team cooking did not impress the judges from Omaha Steaks. And there was a lot of blame to go around. But you, Mr. Trump, recognized that the real problem was a lack of leadership. And so ultimately, you didn't blame Lil' Jon or Meatloaf. You fired Gary Busey. And these are the kind of decisions that would keep me up at night. Well handled, sir. Well handled.
