The WHCD routinely invites the sitting President of the United States to be a guest every year. And every that Trump occupied the White House, he refused the invitation. Until now. After years of insulting and demeaning the media, Trump is going to sit down with those that he calls, in Stalinist terms, “the enemy of the people.”<\/em> And his flagrant hostility to the free press is engraved in his psyche…<\/p>\n SEE THIS: HOLY CR*P! Trump Floats Executive Order to Dictate to TV Networks What They Are Allowed to Air<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n This year Trump announced on his failing Twitter ripoff, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong>, that he would grace the dinner with his glorious presence for the first time as president. In his typical overly verbose babbling, he wrote that<\/a><\/strong>…<\/p>\n “The White House Correspondents Association has asked me, very nicely, to be the Honoree at this year\u2019s Dinner, a long and storied tradition since it began in 1924, under then President Calvin Coolidge. In honor of our Nation\u2019s 250th Birthday, and the fact that these ‘Correspondents’ now admit that I am truly one of the Greatest Presidents in the History of our Country, the G.O.A.T., according to many, it will be my Honor to accept their invitation, and work to make it the GREATEST, HOTTEST, and MOST SPECTACULAR DINNER, OF ANY KIND, EVER! Because the Press was extraordinarily bad to me, FAKE NEWS ALL, right from the beginning of my First Term, I boycotted the event, and never went as Honoree. However, I look forward to being with everyone this year. Hopefully, it will be something very Special. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n There’s a steaming pile of bullpucky in that ridiculous comment. Let’s begin with Trump’s claim that he was asked “to be the Honoree.”<\/em> Nowhere in the White House Correspondents’ invitation did they ever say or imply that Trump would be the honoree. He was simply asked because he’s the president, just like every president before him.<\/p>\n Furthermore, Trump’s assertion that the “Correspondents’ now admit that I am truly one of the Greatest Presidents in the History of our Country,”<\/em> is a figment of his overactive imagination. It’s highly unlikely that anyone in the WHCA has ever said anything close to that.<\/p>\n What’s more, Trump’s boast that his participation might make this year’s dinner “the GREATEST, HOTTEST, and MOST SPECTACULAR DINNER, OF ANY KIND, EVER!”<\/em> is laughable. He made the same preposterous boast about his hosting of the Kennedy Center Honors<\/a><\/strong>, and his State of the Union, that turned out to be the lowest rated in a quarter of a century.<\/p>\n SEE ALSO: SO MUCH WINNING? Trump\u2019s State of the Union Ratings Ranks Near the Bottom for the Past 25 Years<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Of course, he managed to slip in his seething hatred of the media saying that “the Press was extraordinarily bad to me, FAKE NEWS ALL.”<\/em> It wouldn’t take a mind reader to know that’s how Trump feels. Although, the WHCA also announced<\/a><\/strong> that their featured entertainer this year is mentalist Oz Pearlman, who they say “will offer a fascinating glimpse into what\u2019s truly on the minds of Washington\u2019s newsmakers.”<\/em> That actually sounds kind of scary.<\/p>\n Perhaps one of the reasons that Trump boycotted the dinner for so long was what happened the last time he attended as a guest in 2011. That year Trump was the subject of mocking by President Barack Obama. He had jokes about Trump’s birther fixation, his background as a reality TV game show host, and his flaming narcissism. Trump was not amused. See for yourself.<\/p>\n
