President Obama brought down the house last night at the White House Correspondents Association’s annual dinner in Washington Saturday night. Obama mocked the birther movement — showing a clip from what he said was his “birth video” and took shots at Donald Trump and other potential Republican presidential candidates.

TPM caught up with Trump after the speech and threw a few questions at him about Obama’s time on stage.

“It was very good,” was all Trump would say.

Trump was the subject of comedic attack from the other big speaker at the event, Saturday Night Live head writer Seth Meyers (see his speech here.)

Of the jokes at his expense from both men, he told New York, “Some were fun, but not the greatest.”
