So I heard that Groper Don the Con will boycott the Correspondents' Dinner

again this year but that he's sending Sarah the Liar to sit at the head table to represent him.

What the fucking fuck!! What could go wrong.

<snip>
President Trump, who remains very much at war with most of the media, is skipping the second White House Correspondents Dinner of his presidency.

In a statement issued via Twitter Friday morning, White House Correspondents Association President Margaret Talev said that they'd been informed that the president would not participate. But unlike in 2017 when the entire Trump administration boycotted the event, this year, press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders will attend and sit at the head table.

Talev also noted that while Trump would not attend, he would "actively encourage members of the executive branch to attend and join us as we celebrate the First Amendment."

Didn't Mr. Obama release his long-form birth certificate the afternoon of the Correspondents' Dinner?

Then, at the dinner, the president destroyed Trump. The videos of Trump's face that night showed how pissed he was.

President Obama knew exactly how to deal with this idiot.

She is another humorless soul in this administration and the last thing they can laugh at is themselves. That's why Trump isn't going so he sends her out to the wolves. Hope they skewer her and give SNL lots of material to further humiliate her. They should all just stay home.

of any group or event where he might get boo'd or protested. His ego can't take it the chance. That's why his rallies are screened for hostile people. It's why he hides out on his golf courses.

He is a pathetic coward

Even better they should riff on what Obama said about him.
