Donald Trump has broken his silence on the skewering he received from President Obama and Seth Meyers at Saturday night's White House Correspondents Dinner.

New York Magazine reports that Trump -- who sat stone-faced throughout the crowd's raucous laughter over attacks on his hair, credentials and accent -- had little to say immediately following the event.

When asked if he had enjoyed the jokes, he replied shortly, "Not really. Some were fun, but not the greatest."

Speaking to "Fox and Friends" the morning after the gala, however, the Republican presidential candidate hopeful fought back against the blitz that had left him at a loss for words the night before.

... Eventually, the conversation turned to politics, and Lorne Michaels insisted, "We try very hard not to be partisan. Whoever you are we're against it." Seth Meyers said getting across a point of view is not a priority, "You try so hard to be funny, you just worry about that."

Michaels said that when Sarah Palin was on she was "incredibly gracious," "extremely likeable," and "clearly a star." In regards to those famous political sketches, he said, "We deal in the world of perception. It's not real."

If you're one of those people who thinks SNL's not as funny as it used to be, you're not alone. Michaels says, "[People say,] 'You know what the great period was?' It's almost always when they were in high school." He said that's the time when "people bond with the cast."
