The White House Correspondents’ Dinner was already going to be held without President Donald Trump, but now it may be without some of its White House correspondents thanks to some epic trolling on the part of the president!
When there were talks of liberal reports protesting the dinner, President Trump beat them to the punch and instead announced he would skip the dinner. The White House staff is also boycotting in solidarity with President Trump.
At the time of the announcement, a spokeswoman explained, “This wasn’t a president that was elected to spend his time with reporters and celebrities. This is a president who campaigned on speaking directly to Americans, and that’s what he’s going to spend his time doing.”
Now, liberal reporters are going to be REALLY mad!
True to his word, President Trump announced he would spend his time speaking directly to Americans at a rally in Harrisburg, PA, that night:
Next Saturday night I will be holding a BIG rally in Pennsylvania. Look forward to it!

Genius! Now, the angry pro-Hillary reporters will have to cover Trump’s rally, instead of going to their precious little dinner!
Wasn’t enough for Trump to skip WH Correspondents Dinner—now holding rally at same time, which many would-be dinner goers will have to cover https://t.co/J7mabsE8xv

WAAAAAAH! Those poor reporters have to miss out on their self-described “nerd prom” to do their jobs!
But even Vogel had to give Trump props for his “epic troll.”
It IS a pretty epic troll, I will give him that. https://t.co/NCKGCQrTh6
