05.05.11 What Goes Around Comes Around

By Chris D.

What a week for the White House... Tornadoes in the South, Obama releases his full-form live birth certificate and the announcement of Osama Bin Ladin's death.

What was unfortunately missed by many, was a set of hilarious monologues that pushed a little karma back in the face of our country's most self-aggrandizing celebrity richman, Donald Trump. After taking full credit for forcing the President of the United States to dignify a racist campaign to brand him as "un-American," Donald Trump received a bit of karma Saturday evening as both the President and SNL's Seth Meyer's dug their teeth into him in front of a live audience of our country's most influential journalists. In what has turned into the most watched C-Span video of all time, I compiled Obama & Meyers' jokes from 40 minutes down to just 7 minutes of pure gold.

A few of my favorites...

1. On Trump's presidential candidacy: "Donald Trump said that he was running for president as a Republican. That's funny, because I thought he was running as a joke."

2. On Trump's hair: "Donald Trump often appears on Fox, which is ironic because a fox often appears on Donald Trump's head. If you're at the Washington Post table with Trump and you can't finish your entree, don't worry, the fox will eat it."

3. On Trump's accent: "I like that Trump is filthy rich but nobody told his accent. His whole life is models and gold leaf and marble columns but he still sounds like a know-it-all down at the O.T.B."

4. On Sarah Palin: "Donald Trump owns the Miss USA pageant, which is great for Republicans because it will streamline their search for vice president."
