Donald Trump and Barack Obama will be in the same room tonight. The White House Correspondents dinner has Trump on the guest list, with President Obama delivering a stand up routine that pokes fun at himself and his presidency. While almost no topics are off limits during the dinner, Trump doesn’t expect the president to talk about him.
"I wouldn't think [Obama] would address me" during his speech, Trump said to ABC News.
Trump doesn’t have to worry about President Obama joking about him, because he’s made himself into a joke for the rest of the nation. His recent tirades against the president, including questioning whether he is truly a natural born American, whether or not he was qualified to get into Harvard and whether he plays too much basketball, have led to his being referenced as a racist by many leading public figures.
