The Washington Post Has a Donald Trump Problem


Jim Newell— Washington D.C. will be in full "why the country hates us" mode this weekend, as reporters and pundits gather to mingle inappropriately with the politicians and operatives they cover at tomorrow's annual White House Correspondents Dinner. The black-tie affair seems to attract more Hollywood celebrities with each passing year, usually in the form of guests for major D.C. publications. And who has the Washington Post, our capital's mightiest fishwrapper, invited this year? America's cartoon slime monster, Donald Trump.

The Post invited Trump before he became completely toxic earlier this week — back when we were still in the "It's just Donald being Donald" phase of his fake presidential run that preceded the current "It's just Donald being George Wallace" reality. ....

John Boehner at the same table with Donald Trump? We have a feeling that this ain't gonna happen. It is not a tenable situation. Boehner will likely request a move to his usual seat on Justin Bieber's lap.

At least some Post employees are annoyed with this. Blogger Ezra Klein called the invitation "embarrassing." ... ....

George Will must be rolling in his grave.

10. Satire
Made me giggle too. I love ginger Jim Newell. I liked him better when he was @ Wonkette but I'll take him wherever I can get him.

2. George Will is still alive
I don't disagree with the point being made that Trump is an embarrassment, but I just thought I'd mention that Will still lives.
