The Obamas - Donald Trump has been raging on the Obamas for years. He fed into the racist birther movement, which claimed Obama was not born in this country.

The wager eventually blew over, since it was proven that the president is, in fact, American — surprise! (Photo: Kristoffer Tripplaar-Pool/Getty Images)

Jon Stewart - Jon Stewart is known for — intelligently — telling it like it is, so it's pretty safe to say that Trump may have met his match with this one.

Donald Trump hates losing, so when news got out that the Central Park Five — five Black and Latino men who were wrongfully convicted of raping a jogger 25 years ago — was getting a $40 million settlement, he wasn't happy. Trump called the settlement a disgrace, saying in an op-ed, "My opinion on the settlement of the Central Park Jogger case is that it's a disgrace... It is politics at its lowest and worst form." Although their convictions were overturned, Trump said they were guilty as recent as 2019. (Photo: NY Daily News via Getty Images)
