I’m sure he could get Tim Allen and Dennis Miller there to do some routines and kiss his ass.

His “positive things” are people cheering his negative things.

Once again, we see that attempts to pander to Trump (in this case by completely jettisoning the format that led to Michelle Wolf) doesn’t actually accomplish anything.

Though what this dinner is actually trying to accomplish is another question. I guess it reinforces the Beltway oligarchy of pols and pundits.

No one of sound mind wants you near them, Donnie. Got it? This is welcome news. YOU HAVE DISAPPOINTED EXACTLY NOBODY. You are a dog turd on our shoes.

They don’t want you, either.

I actually agree with him on this! There hasn’t been a really enjoyable one since this one:

The Trump stuff starts at about 8:20.

“Boring and negative?” Really? He loves to make vicious fun of people, constantly, in speeches, on Twitter, everywhere – but he’s a coward when people make fun of him. Which makes sense, since he’s a thin-skinned 13-year-old emotionally.

He shouldn’t have been invited to begin with.

However, Donnie will still be there in spirit. As unrivaled comedic fodder…

he doesn’t want to attend “because the dinner is so boring and so negative.”

Yeah, this. A trenchant comedy routine now and then served to mask the essential nature of the event which glorified and elevated access as a key element of contemporary beltway journalmalism. None of that afflicting the comfortable while comforting the afflicted sauce thank you; we’re all friends here. Pass the rubber chicken please.

I hope the dinner has a live display, counting up the number of non-journalist, non-Trump people entering the hall for his rally. Should only need four digits.

If it’s necessary to report every such move Trump makes, at least fill out the story with the background of why he doesn’t want to attend for the small fraction of readers who find this article “news”.

Trump not attending a dinner with these whiners who got more upset with him for canceling their annual barbecue than they have with any of his monstrous policies is fine.

This is like the shortest Hitchcock film ever made. President repeatedly refuses to attend event traditionally attended by his relatively sane predecessors for a reason that’s so not hidden in the past, so obvious to everyone, that’s it’s The End roll credits. Running time: 3:07.
