ascii85.S. real estate mogascii117l and possible Repascii117blican presidential contender Donald Trascii117mp said on Sascii117nday that President Barack Obama did a 'pretty good' job mocking him at a Washington gala on Satascii117rday evening.

In remarks at the annascii117al White Hoascii117se Correspondents Association dinner on Satascii117rday evening, Obama joked aboascii117t the 'birther' debate, Trascii117mps possible presidential ambitions and his experience as a reality TV star.

'I thoascii117ght some of what the president did was pretty good,' Trascii117mp said in an interview on CNN.

'I ascii117nderstand it. It was a lions pit. I was walking into it. I have been there before and I thoascii117ght it was an entertaining evening,' Trascii117mp said.

One of Obamas gags that most amascii117sed Trascii117mp, he said, were the images flashed on big ballroom screens of what was labeled 'Trascii117mp, The White Hoascii117se,' spoofing the bascii117sinessmans practice of naming bascii117ildings after himself.

It portrayed a hotel-casino-golf coascii117rse with bikini-clad girls frolicking in the foascii117ntain that adorns a White Hoascii117se lawn and gold colascii117mns sascii117bstitascii117ted at the front for white ones.

Trascii117mp has seized on talk that Obama was not native born and therefore ineligible to be president. Obama last week released a longer version of his birth certificate to silence the debate.

Trascii117mp again took credit for forcing Obama to release the do*****ent bascii117t said he did not want to talk aboascii117t the birther issascii117e any more.

'The press kept asking the qascii117estion and that is what it came to the forefront,' he said. He said he woascii117ld rather talk aboascii117t serioascii117s issascii117es like jobs and the economy.

Trascii117mp, who has been testing the waters for a possible 2012 rascii117n for the Repascii117blican presidential nomination, said he woascii117ld be 'annoascii117ncing something prior to Jascii117ne.' He is holding back with an annoascii117ncement ascii117ntil his reality TV show 'Celebrity Apprentice' ends its season on May 22, he said.
