Trump Won't Attend White House Correspondents' Dinner

Tuesday, April 15, 2025

President Trump will not attend this year's White House Correspondents' Dinner, a White House official tells Axios. Why it matters: The news follows speculation over whether Trump would attend the April 26 event after he broke with tradition and didn't attend any of the dinners during his first term. State of play: This comes as the White House and conservative groups have floated the idea of hosting a rival event on the same night as the dinner -- potentially to celebrate First Lady Melania Trump's birthday, reports Politico.

Yeah, Pres Trump's thin skin seems to be concerned about any comments made by stand-up commedians about him.

In short, Pres Trump does not apparently allow criticism, he only seems to revel in adulation..

All of these events hosted by the media and Hollywood to glorify the media and Hollywood are being rejected by everyone. No one cares about these people anymore and they can't stand it.

LOL hardly, s*&^ for brains.

Most people don't care enough to even know when they are, let along reject it.

Idiot.

Why would Trumpy attend a party full of the Enemies of the People?

That would be silly and dangerous for everyone.

Trumpy could not take all those deep state vermin and homegrown terrorists so close by without him calling in ICE to black bag them all and have them carted off the El Salvador to be slaves for his new BFF, Mr Bukukaki.

It was all Stephen Colbert's fault that he ever ran to begin with. Trump is such a thin skinned jackhole.

Hey, guys--the event is on a Saturday, which is golf day for El Rey Dotardo II. America should be relieved that the fat orange criminal insurrectionist and golf cheat is away from a newsman's microphone or his phone for a fer hours. As for Melania, she will be celebrating her big day with friends, in New York. Donald will not be able to make it, and even if he could, would not be told the location of the celebration...

Trump only goes to dinners where people are paying $1,000,000 to sit near him.

He'd rather attend some NASCAR event, or one of Dana White's meathead extravaganzas, where he'll get a friendly crowd and no "voices".
