Trump finds WH dinner ‘inappropriate’, says Seth Meyers delivery was not good, "He’s a stutterer."
Trump finds White House dinner ‘inappropriate’
By: CNN Associate Producer Gabriella Schwarz

Washington (CNN) - Donald Trump reacted to the onslaught of jokes about him by President Barack Obama and comedian Seth Meyers at the White House Correspondents Association Dinner Saturday with his own view of the events.

“You get to a certain level and you rise to a certain level, let’s say in this case in the polls and boy, does the world come after you,” Trump, a potential 2012 candidate, said on "Fox and Friends" Sunday.

...

“I really knew what I was getting into last night. I had no idea it would be to that extent where, you know just joke after joke after joke,” the mogul said. “It was almost like, is there anyone else they can talk about?”

He also found the event “inappropriate in certain respects” and spent the evening thinking about how “the American people are really suffering and we’re all having a good time.”

And what was his assessment of Meyers’ comedic timing?

“His (Meyers) delivery was not good. He’s a stutterer and he really was having a hard time,” Trump said of the “Saturday Night Live” star.

2. Fish-Lips Trump is really coming unglued
I hope he doesn't fade out of the limelight until after the primaries.

3. Now muskrat head is making fun of people with disabilities?
Edited on Sun May-01-11 06:41 PM by greatauntoftriplets
I don't know if Seth Meyers stutters, but it's an unfair slam. Consider that the movie "The King's Speech" won best picture this year. A friend of mine was a stutterer, who overcame her disability with a lot of work. It was horrible for her and nothing to poke fun at.

Trump is a jerk.

17. That speech in Las Vegas was something else.
I saw it on the news Friday and have no idea how many times he dropped the f-bomb. Not good in public speaking.

4. Class, thy name is certainly not Trump.
He's about as classy as Rush's crappy but expensive New York apartment. The name Trump is now a joke. It should have always been so.

5. His (Meyers) delivery was not good.
SNL would have a writer, writing supervisor, on air performer, and now head writer for SNL on
staff from 2001 if he didn't have talent?

8. A stutterer?
Did you hear any stuttering? I didn't.

I am very conscious of stuttering. My husband stutters when he is stressed.

This is really insulting.

I didn't hear any stuttering. Dude's just fishing for insults.
Seth delivered those jokes rapid-fire and didn't sit waiting for audience reaction too long.

9. Trump is a thin-skinned ass
I guess it's okay when he's humiliating people.
Can dish it out, but can't take it

13. Sounds like something he would say on his show.
Like he is rating Seth Meyers for his delivery and has taken some points off for his stuttering and is about to fire him. Anyway you look at it, this knocked Trump off his feet, and shows he can dish it out but he can't take it. That's a problem, just as it was for McCain with his anger problem.
