Bring Obama to just roast his ass for an hour instead. Not much else could get under his skin like that, unless you also get some Trump women to fawn over him the whole time.
If I didn’t know better I’d say the White House was filled with a bunch of thin skinned cry babies. /s
I’m pretty sure that’s how this all started… https://youtu.be/k8TwRmX6zs4
Pretty sure it has t stopped, neither.

Thin-skinned bitches
The press is feeble. Fucking cowards.
Have you ever seen Donald Trump make a genuine joyful eye twinkling smile?
He has no sense of humor and he doesn’t like dogs. He’s unfit to hold any position of responsibility. Belongs in a cage at the zoo.
This vibe, for lack of a better word, is more important than some may think. Having an official role for poking fun at the government once a year reinforces Democracy and 1A. This is an act that signals to everyone just how ok it is to point out flaws and say what you like about the federal government and the people in it, including the president. To remove the comedy element states the opposite.
Exactly as intended
I don’t know if there’s a word or phrase for this but it is funny how you’re saying the dinner is important to show that in democracy leadership can take it on the chin. But in this case, this administration is wrecking democracy and can’t handle the correspondence dinner. It’s cool to see how that works in real time
When they hold the neutered dinner, there should be a rota of comics outside doing democracy proud.
There is no way this happens. Left can’t muster anything more then a mild protest
An official demonstration of Freedom of Press?
It’s more than that. Every year the president sits down in public to be roasted. Maybe it’s lighter and more formal than Reddit, but it’s still a roast. Sitting in a chair for it at an event is much more pointed than passing headlines or essays.
They should have canceled the entire “White House Correspondents’ Dinner” and simply held a completely new event at the exact same time at the same venue with a different name, and kept the jokes at the president’s expense.
It’s not White House’s Correspondents’ Dinner. It’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
The Correspondents organize it. It’s hosted in a Hilton hotel, not at the White house. The White House doesn’t control it in any way. This is simply the press rolling over to appease the fascists because they are scared of losing access.
They should hold it at the Four Seasons.
Snowflakes.
Who sees what is happening in the white house and wants to crack jokes?
For the next four years, the Correspondent’s Dinner should be a wake, and not an Irish one.
What about the other kind of Irish wake
Fascists can’t be argued with. They love when you get angry and yell at them. But they absolutely cannot stand to get laughed at. Go look up some quotes from Mel Brooks about why he thought it was important for the Hitler references in The Producers.
We should be doing a monthly nationally televised event where Trump, Musk, and the rest are ridiculed.
Certainly. I agree completely.
The correspondent’s dinner isn’t the proper venue for that.
The correspondent’s dinner is, in part, a comedy roast of the president and his administration. The guests are overtly praising and honoring the roasted. They are laughing with the guest of honor, not at him.
We should absolutely ridicule Trump, Musk, and the rest, mercilessly. But none of them deserve the honor of a roast.
Snowflakes
Too bad. Trevor Noah’s gig was unforgettable.
I think the best one ever was Stephen Colbert. Followed by Seth Meyers, I think. But Colbert’s was just so…perfect. You could tell it was great because the Beltway class was harumphing about it in the aftermath.
Once again demonstrating their collective cowardice…
Obeying in advance. Can’t risk upsetting Don Mangolini. The Mafia Bully Admin wins again.
🙄 🙄
Amber Ruffin is a fucking national treasure.
The American Have I Got News For You is actually awesome IMO.
Totally agree. Needs more viewers though.
Comedy has been banned everyone, time to wrap it up.
Didn’t musk make some inane comment about comedy being illegal cause he couldn’t say slurs or transphobic shit at some point?
I mean not banned, but the standards have to be improved.
