There may be empty seats at this weekend's White House Correspondents' dinner following a late-in-the-game boycott ordered Tuesday by the White House.
The boycott comes weeks after news organizations invited White House staff and other administration officials to join their tables at the ritzy annual gathering at the Washington Hilton, where tickets cost $300 per seat.
"The President and members of his administration will not attend the White House Correspondents Dinner this year," a White House official told the Washington Examiner in an email. "Instead, Saturday evening President Trump will travel to Green Bay, Wisconsin where he will hold a campaign rally."

Good.
I can't imagine ANY staff would accept this invitation.
Oh the bully press can botch and moan now.
Good. Spend the day with real American citizens instead.
In before some liberal judge says this is unconstitutional!
This WH house is beginning to be run like a business. About time....
I would never accept an invitation to be ridiculed in public. The White House Correspondents are arrogant snakes.
Why should the president have anything to do with the fake press? They only lied about him be Putin’s butt boy for 2 years. They are not credible, he should ignore them and only talk to OANN
Even Fox is liberal crap now
Damn! I already rented a tux.
I truly hope the White House will boycott the dinner....
What have ANY of these so called correspondents......with a few exceptions.....done for our President, other than try to make his life miserable!!!!!,
Oh wait! I thought we were talking about another March on Washington...
After last year’s vicious attacks on Sarah Sanders, this is exactly the right move.
Why would anyone attend this? The media is Dem controlled....and everyone knows it.
To hell with them!! TRUMP 2020!!!~!
Fixed the title.
After what happened last year with Sanders it’s a wonder any White House people would want to attend. Their cutting their own throat and Trump is handing them the knife. And does it really matter anyway, because you know they’re going to bad mouth the administration whether they’re there or not.
No socializing with the enemy.
I can’t wait to see the list of MSM leakers involving classified documents.
Sure hope they’ve hired their lawyers early.
