Was bound to be vicious.
Life is too short to spend time with dishonest and disagreeable people.
Let them eat cake by themselves.
Make dinner great again!
Leave the fake media behind.
Drain the swamp.
Get rid of these self-serving so called silly traditions.
The media IS the deep state’s voice.
Trump is doing the right thing. Stay away from these jackals.
Trump should hold a correspondents dinner with his supporters and call it the people’s dinner.
NOTICE TO THE PRESS CORPS...
If you go to the event and say nasty things....
well, ... your seat in the briefing room will be up for grabs and may even be in the back row.
Have a nice evening...
POTUS, Donald J. Trump......Bravo, Bravo, Bravo, Great, Great, Great!!! Screw the Obama/Clinton, scum & vermin media and their low life allies!!! Love it!!! Finally a Republican POTUS with a solid backbone!!!
That dinner, what a waste. He has better things to do than to empower them.
Jokes? These media bastards spew hate and venom and think it’s funny.
White House “LIBERAL WRITERS” are an embarrassment to REAL JOURNALISM.

This is great. And if they start complaining about the president not being there, blah, blah, blah, just cancel the whole thing and save some more taxpayer’s money.
He should hold a BBQ on the WH lawn and invite some of the troops over.....
That's a great idea!
Everybody should go to YouTube and watch the newspaper film “Deadline USA”. Watch for the part where Jim Bacus explains the difference between a journalist and a reporter.
Hope so. This event was going to be cruel, evil and all sorts of other adjectives. Our president, like our greatest presidents, has serious work to do. He doesn’t need to waste time trying to prove he’s a standup comedian.
This is the same dinner where Obama roasted Trump a few years back as he sat in the audience, and the crowd yucked it up as Obama went well beyond lighthearted ribbing and made it fully obvious his intent was to humiliate Trump.
