Donald Trump pushed back Sunday at President Barack Obama for making him the "focus of the evening" in his White House Correspondents' Dinner speech, and laced into Saturday Night Live comedian Seth Meyers as a "stutterer" whose delivery was lacking.
Trump's comments came in a quick phone-in to "Fox and Friends," a day after he sat almost stone-faced while the president and Meyers ripped him repeatedly, to belly laughs from the crowd. People at tables around him gaped at him watching for a reaction, and some of his tablemates wrote on Twitter that it was uncomfortable.
"Well, I really understood what I was getting into — I didn't know that I'd be virtually the sole focus," Trump said. "I guess when you're leading in the polls that sort of thing tends to happen. But I was certainly in a certain way having a good time listening. I don't think the American people are having a good time with $5 gas. ... I was thinking to myself as they were doing this, you know, the American people are really suffering and we're all" having fun at a gala.
"I thought Seth Meyers — his delivery frankly was not good," Trump added. He's a stutterer."

one a marxist democrat, the other a liberal democrat
That ‘liberal democrat’ is showing more patriotic in-your-face than the rest of the GOP combined.
An easy slap back to Teleprompter Jesus: “The only people happier that President Obama has finally proven he is an American citizen than the staff of MSNBC are the citizens of Kenya - after all, why should innocent Kenyan’s be tainted with Obama’s incompetence?”
Trump the liar and the jackass got PWND. And it’s all over the internet tubes. Murdered. Humiliated. Brutally destroyed and with him the ‘kook wing’ of the Republican party. No one likes a braggart and a cheap bastard, even if he has a fox in his head.
Name a few things Donald has for the conservative movement? If you think he helped with the BC, think again.
I hope Obama’s jabs compel Trump’s ego.
If he can win a cynical ex-Republican like myself over (which he has not, completely), then there’s a chance.
The vast majority of Independents know that both major parties are full of bull. And the guy with the bad hair lets them both have it with both barrels...and unlike W and his phony Harvard MBA (and the Black Messiah with his Affirmative Action JD), the Donald went to Wharton, which means serious business ability. Wharton does NOT suffer fools.
I don’t take his intelligence lightly. He’s got to answer to the China question, though. That’s a big sticking point with me.
Trump certainly has this right.
As I see it if he did all that he has purposed he would do..with China and other countries...”Pay to Play” sort of. They would surely retaliate and I'm not so certain he understands how they would do so and the impact on our nation if they did so...he needs to get educated in what cards they actually hold...I don't think he can know that yet. Which is why he comes off as baabling at times...he's simply not informed there is more to the puzzle than he's aware of, and people in the know understand this.
Not to mention untalented and unfunny.

The GOP establishment is playing with fire by attacking Trump personally or otherwise. They should be welcoming his entry into the fray or at the very least, not dissing him. If they don't watch out, Trump's giant ego will get him into the race in the form of a third party.
Let The Donald be The Donald. It is up to the other potential candidates to make their own cases on the basis of policies, not personalities. I would personally welcome Trump into the debates. He would increase viewership and force the other candidates to define themselves on the issues, including going after Obama's personal narrative. I won't be supporting Trump for the nomination, but he is welcome to the Party.
Trump's in it for the ratings - thats been his MO up until now.
Until he proves he's serious about leading the greatest nation on earth, that is currently teetering on the brink, that'll continue to be my opinion. I'm not in the mood for another celebrity candidate.
You fogot to add in the Liberals dismissive laugh.
D-d-d-d-on’t t-t-t-t-ell m-m-m-m-y M-m-m-m-other, N-n-n-urse R-r-r-r-r-atched!
George Lopez leaves one with the a strong impression that he’s extremely high on the coca. Just sayin’.
He’d need a powerhouse of advisors if Pres....he is not lacking in what he wants for this nation but he is lacking in knowing the cards the International Community has in their hands...and how they will play them.
I am all for Trump hitting back but he does deserve ridicule for trying to bluff his way through the BC issue.
He is losing credibility in Corsi-like fashion by failing to produce anything meaningful.
If Trump wins over enough people by standing up to the ankle-biters in both parties - could be the Republican do nothing globalists who find themselves to be a third party.
The GOP stands for diddly-squat.
Nobody feels strongly about the GOP for any reason any more. They simply exist.
Trump could take over the GOP at his current trajectory. And frankly, I’m starting to hope he will do just that.
Then tell the globalist RINOs simply:
YOU’RE FIRED.
I know but he was really good in Beverly Hills Chihuahua.
LOL who would have thought ol Bubba would look good?
last year and the year before 90dumbo’s targets were Rush, Sean and of course Fox
this year he moved on to Trump and still Fox
It is always so personal and nasty with him. Who can admire that in a POTUS?
