Above is a short clip of Rickles at Reagan’s Innauguration. Pretty funny stuff. At 1:48 he starts a joke - and it ends with a “mike drop”.

“There hasn’t been a COMEDIAN in a DECADE!”

There was. He had big ears, a big ego and the worst 8 years of our lives.

Technically, that was a clown, not a comedian.

I miss Don Rickles. He could call you a moron and make you laugh about it.

there hasn’t been comedy there for many years.

The award shows get lower and lower ratings, and the Fake News Dinner alters its format. Too much winning!

I could think of a way to make the correspondents’ dinner very funny, just order them all into the kitchen and tell them they’re appetizers.

I hope this White House will boycott this dinner anyway....no need to be in front of such a gaggle of corrupt, anti-Trump geese.
