Trump Skipping White House Correspondents Dinner

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders will take President Trump's place at the White House Correspondents Association annual dinner.
Why it matters: Trump would have had to share the stage with the journalists receiving awards including ones from what he's called on Twitter the "failing" New York Times, and "Fake News" CNN. "The White House has informed us that the president does not plan to participate in this year's dinner but that he will actively encourage members of the executive branch to attend and join us as we celebrate the First Amendment. In keeping with tradition, Press Secretary Sarah Sanders also will represent the administration at the head table. The April 28 dinner celebrates award-winning reporting, scholarship winners and the vital role of the First Amendment and the free press in American democracy."
— WHCA President Margaret Talev

Happy to President Trump not honoring the cockroaches in the Fake Stream News.
To: Enlightened1
Yes, good. No need to be there for the abuse. They’ll give enough even when he is not there.

Two years in a row, isn't it?
Maybe he has better things to do than entertain preening peacocks.

On my list of ten-thousand things that might matter...this doesn’t even make into the top one-hundred-thousand things that matters.

The President is simply avoiding a meeting of the
CPUSA Propaganda Department.

Absolutely agree with him staying home with Melania and Barron.
It's one nasty group....intent on being nasty.
To: Enlightened1
Good for him! No reason for him to sit in the middle of the swamp with he and the “urinalists” pretending to like one another.

White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders will take President Trump's place at the White House Correspondents Association annual dinner. Why send anyone?
To: Enlightened1
She should invite Sarah Carter to sit at the head table, maybe Sharyl Atkisson too.
They are both Journalists in the true sense of the word.
