The objective media swoons in ecstasy.

[maddog55]

Blithering idiots eating with a French moron....

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

Complete nausea. Too bad a 2nd hand did not appear to write on the wall of the White House.

I’ll bet Nanzi choked a hot dog in the cloak room...
it’s how she got where she is today.
Kamala ate her’s in California.

ransomnote: I was puzzled to learn that Biden held his administration's first state dinner in a tent on the south lawn of the White House at night, when temperatures were about 37 degrees.

Weird.

[LegendHasIt]

Interesting that Nanzi brought her daughter... Lends credence to the idea that she wants her to take over ‘her seat’.

And McCarthy’s date was his mother. Well, I guess if he had taken Luntz, it would have been too much of a ‘clue’.

Insane.

37° is way too cold for an outdoor, evening event.

[algore]

I know a lot of people who organize parties like this and larger for mega multinational corporations, and have been to a few.

If they had really good appetizers and other food stuffs before dinner it may not have been that extremely bad.

but I am pretty certain with open bars and expensive wine there were a lot of people who should not have driven anywhere afterwards.

I believe that reports of wiener talk were accurate

“I’ll bet Nanzi choked a hot dog in the cloak room...”

Just like her husband.

[Tupelo]

Interesting guest list.
I sorta kinda wonder if maybe this is the first step in the rehabilitation of Hunter Biden into the royals upper echelon

37° is way too cold for an outdoor, evening event.

Afraid of covid? Or not enough room in the White House? So they had to have it outside to accommodate all the guests?

Holdover from Obama era.

[pax_et_bonum]

This is a bizarre story.

[Tupelo]

“37° is way too cold for an outdoor, evening event.”

Noo. Not to worry, there probably were 25 or more gas heaters burning Venezuelan gas paid for by... Guess who

[metmom]

I don’t buy either one.

[metmom]

That’s the only way I could see people staying warm outdoors at 37°.

[bimboeruption]

What was McCarthy doing there?

Sucking up to the left?

[Nifster]

Hunter shouldn’t have been there

[Nifster]

Since when? State dinners have been held inside always
