When Barack Obama mocked Donald Trump so much he decided to become POTUS
The tables turned on April 30, 2011, at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. That evening, Trump found himself on the receiving end of President Obama’s sharp humor. With a smile, Obama took aim at Trump, mocking his involvement in the birther movement and his television persona. It was a public moment of humiliation for Trump, but for those close to him, it marked something more significant: the moment Trump decided he would run for president.
