Real reasons Trump won't attend the WH correspondents dinner

The jaded and cynical among us might unfairly conclude the reason Trump has refused to attend the annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner is simply because he was afraid of being made fun of, but the more enlightened among us recognize he’s not at all thin skinned, doesn’t take himself too seriously, and is usually the first to laugh heartily at jokes told at his own expense. No one loves a good roast more than him.

Which begs the question what are the real reasons he doesn’t want to attend. Anyone care to speculate?

Because he’s working hard. Lots of work to do, running the country, cleaning up the mess it’s currently in. That’s why he was voted into office, to do the job.

He also declined to subject himself to a cavalcade of boos and strain his tiny hands at the traditional first pitch of the baseball season.

He’ll be out spending our money to play golf at his own resort.

What’s weird is Trump says he was one of the best baseball players in New York when he was young. In fact, I defy you to name a better ball player in NYC in the 1950s than Donald Trump! You’d think he’d want to get out there and show us what he’s got.

it’s Obama’s fault he’s not attending. And Hillary’s.

Willy Mays. Mickey Mantle.

His real reason? He cannot stand being booed.

:dubious: He did appear on Comedy Central’s roast, which is about 253 times worse than the WHCD.

PTSD from the last time he went and got SERVED by a REAL President.

He really wants to get in another round of golf?

He’s been taking care of a sick kitten. It’s doing better but he doesn’t want to leave it alone for a night out.

Why should he give comfort to his enemies?

He is boasting (as usual), but he was actually fairly decent and scouted by a couple of pro teams.

He is afraid of being ridiculed, and he hates the press.

Nope, he got to choose what topics were out of bounds before agreeing to participate.

Because he is not interested in the same ole same ole crap of what Washington is about. I dont blame him, boring crap I say.

Gotta admit, his term so far certainly hasn’t been boring. Trainwrecks rarely are.

At least its all different this time around current administration!

“I can’t help but notice that your new house is on fire.”

“Yeah, but at least it’s different from the last one. That place just had too many towel racks!”

And supposedly the only thing he nixed was people saying he wasn’t as rich as he claims to be. Jokes about him wanting to fuck his daughter were OK though.

So the whcd would probably be full of jokes about his wealth since people know he is sensitive about that.
