WASHINGTON – Comedian Seth Meyers joined President Barack Obama in mocking Donald Trump's presidential ambitions at Saturday's White House Correspondents' Association annual dinner in Washington.
Before introducing Obama, Meyers took several shots at the reality TV star that drew some nervous laughs from the crowd.
"Donald Trump has been saying he will run for president as a Republican, which is surprising because I just assumed that he was running as a joke," said Meyers.
He added, "Donald Trump often appears on Fox, which is ironic because a fox often appears on Donald Trump's head."
Moments later, Obama joined in the attack after weeks of dealing with Trump questioning his birth certificate, among other things.
"I know that he's taken some flak lately, but nobody is prouder to put this birth certificate matter to rest than The Donald," said Obama. "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?"
