If you guys are not watching the White House Correspondent's Dinner, you are not having as much fun as I am.

It was brilliant, not only did POTUS skewer Trump but the main speaker did too. I was literally =)) I loved the movie trailer for "The President's Speech" and did you see Trump's face, he had to sit there and take it, he looked like he was in a fury! I bet he left that dinner in an absolute rage.

The fox ate his dinner BWAHAHAHAHAHHA =))

Unfortunately, all I could get was the audio and I missed all but the end of Obama's speech, but Seth Meyer was great, and I can't wait until the full video is posted.

I watched the whole thing except for a few minutes when my wireless crashed and I missed a few of Seth's jabs. However, it was easy to tell who the biggest, maddest wet hen in the crowd was. Trump was stiff and glowering as he was laughed at by the assembled glitterati and the butt of some very sharply pointed jokes. Boy, was he seething. Nope, no sense of humor at all.

Trump is utterly humorless.

President Obama laughed at nearly every joke about him. Trump just sat there with a rigid scowl on his face.

Watching him walk through the crowd after, some women smiled at him and then after he'd got past them, one of them sort of cringed. :lol:

Trump looked pissed. The President was pretty funny . I thought Seth did an ok job, but didn't take too many risks.

I loved the "I Am A Real American" theme song for Obama's intro. I couldn't help but crack up repeatedly as the long form pulsed to the beat. :lol: In yo face bitches!!! =D>

Seth's delivery was lacking. He is obviously a writer and not a comedian. The Trump jokes were the highlight of the night. The joke about Michelle Bachmann being born in Canada was good too.

Followed by the President's salutation which rocked the house with its timing and emphasis: My .....fellow .....Americans....

It was a perfect opener for a whole battery of birfer jokes. His video of his 'birth' followed by his warning the Fox table it was really a child's cartoon movie and they could check with Disney to verify. The president looked like he was really happy to be able to get in a few points for himself and then Seth came in and cleared the field. Michelle looked quite pleased as well.

BTW, during the playing of the National Anthem, Obama had his hand over his heart. Gee, I though the birthers kept claiming he NEVER did that!

Obama was hilarious tonight, and the repeated slams at Trump were great..The Donald did not seem amused so even better.

I haven't watched it yet, but please tell me you're referring to Hulk Hogan's original theme song. :)

I had to leave before the red carpet stuff was over, but I'm watching the replay now on C-SPAN.

“All kidding aside, we all know about your credentials and experience,” Mr. Obama said, as people in the room either chortled or grimaced nervously, all depending on their proximity to Mr. Trump.

In “Celebrity Apprentice,” Mr. Obama told Mr. Trump, teeth flashing, “the men’s cooking team did not impress the judges from Omaha steaks, but you recognized that this was a lack of leadership, so you fired Gary Busey.”

“These,” Mr. Obama said, “are the kinds of decisions that would keep me up at night. Well-handled, sir. Well-handled.”



Quote:
But in the end, it was Mr. Trump who served as the punching bag for the evening. As it turned out, Mr. Obama’s swipes were just the warm-up act for Seth Meyers, the headliner for the evening, who spent most of his routine going after Mr. Trump, who sat at the Washington Post table, grimacing.

Painful.

To think I was upset when I heard WaPo had invited Trump.
