President Trump says he WILL NOT ATTEND the WA DC Correspondents Dinner - TWITTER GOES NUTS!!

http://bipartisanreport.com/2017/02/25/twitter-goes-nuts-after-trump-wimps-out-on-w-h-correspondents-dinner-tweets/

Donald Trump announced on Saturday, the day after banning long-time respected news organizations such as CNN and The New York Times from his presidential press conferences, he will be skipping the annual White House Correspondents Dinner.

I will not be attending the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner this year. Please wish everyone well and have a great evening!

It sounds like someone is a little bit afraid of facing the consequences of his actions and being held accountable for them.

Twitter responded to Trump’s cowardly move with taunts and outspoken criticism.

Lol. That’s like not being asked to go to the prom and then telling everyone you didn’t want to go anyway. https://t.co/q0UIfDB6Uq

The White House Correspondents’ dinner is on April 29th. Trump knows he’ll no longer be President at that point.

Trump isn’t attending the White House Correspondents’ dinner because he can’t handle being joked by the same media he angrily tweets about.

I am liking more and more the idea of Obama as replacement for Trump at White House Correspondents Dinner. Could be truly epic.

#WHCD will now have a Trump-off, where the attendees put on an orange wig and do their best impression of an elderly dementia patient

Aww…Orange Crisp isn’t attending the WHCD? I’m sure that all of the fake news organizations that’ll be there are oh so sad about that. pic.twitter.com/P4oMKvafpB

After Trump’s last appearance at the White House Correspondents Dinner, when he was so badly torn to shreds by a president with an actual sense of humor and humility, who can blame him?
