Mocked by Obama and Meyers at White House Correspondents' Dinner over birther campaign

At the White House Correspondents' Dinner, President Obama and comedian Seth Meyers mocked Trump, who was in the audience, over his birther campaign against Obama. Obama joked that Trump could now focus on "the issues that matter, like, did we fake the moon landing?" while Meyers said Trump was running as a Republican because "that's the only way you'll make money from a race." Trump sat unsmiling through the roast; biographers and observers have widely cited the evening as a catalyst for his 2016 presidential run.
