Donald Trump Announces Rally On Same Night As White House Correspondents Dinner
Because, of course.
President Donald Trump will hold a rally for supporters in Pennsylvania next Saturday in an apparent attempt to divert attention from the White House Correspondents Association dinner in Washington, D.C. being held the same day, which he has refused to attend.

(83,740 posts)And the press will all be at the Correspondents Dinner!
Demtexan
(1,588 posts)That will do it.
sheshe2
(83,740 posts)I will watch then.
It would be good to see them together.
That would burn Thump really good.
Demtexan
(1,588 posts)That would be really great.
Little Thump can go kick his little feet some place else.

(17,174 posts)And I'm sure Ishtar is also playing somewhere. And I think TLC is showing a rerun of Honey Boo Boo Explodes. I'm sure some network is showing a five-hour documentary on the aerodynamics of the basketball.
Any one of which sounds more interesting than watching Rump masturbate in front of a crowd of drooling idiots again.

Demtexan
(1,588 posts)By now only his really hard core followers would go.
A bet a lot of paid people will be there.
A lot of professional signs.
We already know what he will say.
The same old crap.
Buns_of_Fire
(17,174 posts)You're right, though, it'll be the same old crap. His neverending campaign speech. They could put one of those air-powered waving clowns (like you see at car dealerships) up on stage and nobody would be able to tell the difference.
Maybe his meeting with Larry, Moe, and Curly at the WH was to work out the entertainment schedule. Ted, Sarah, and Kid might do "Wang Dang Sweet Poontang" in three-part harmony to open the show.

(45,806 posts)of ALL his accomplishments! BEST OF ANY FORMER PRESIDENT ya know. I'm so sick of hearing his lies and damn bragging, as soon as I see his face on my tube, I mute it, and if it seems like a long screed, Id switch channels. Anything the idiot says will be hashed out on MSNBC and I'd rather listen there.

(2,270 posts).... they can be quite nagging when they want/need you for their demographics. Accommodating too, when their box kept screwing up my phone (worked nights at the time and their call back time was exactly when me and my girlfriend talked), they got me an extra line so it wouldn't interfere. Also fixed my T.V. for me when it went out. Lol, you can probably thank me for having Friends on at all times of the day and night there for awhile!

(1,063 posts)After all they love them some rallies. Will it be a little box in the corner kind of thing?

(67,782 posts)....his rally may be on C-Span 6!
PS - when I saw this it scared me. I got the impression was that the dinner was tonight (even though I was sure it is next week) and that I missed it all! Whew.
sheshe2
(83,740 posts)Tune in next week,,,,,should be a hoot.
Warpy
(111,245 posts)so I catch up on the highlights at You Tube, but this year, with the dueling venues, I'll be sure to add to Driect TV's statistics for people watching the dinner. I might have the sound muted, but it will be on.
In any case, it will be interesting to see what they have in Dolt45's chair. Cardboard? One of those naked sculptures? An impersonator? Or just an orange fright wig?
sheshe2
(83,740 posts)Stay tuned.

(83,740 posts)The dinner will be hosted by comedian Hasan Minhaj, who is currently a senior correspondent for The Daily Show. He is also Muslim and the son of Indian immigrants.

Perhaps they will just leave it empty...maybe Clint Eastwood can come in and have a conversation with it~

csziggy
(34,136 posts)That would drive him through the roof if every few minutes he gets a tweet from someone about events at the White House Correspondents Association dinner, the jokes, and the fun everyone is having. It would be especially delightful if he exploded at his own rally in outrage over the avalanche of tweets.
I don't tweet...yet ya'll let her rip.

(34,136 posts)I hope people who do think come up with an idea to hassle Dolt45 that night, though.

(25,841 posts)the current Nielsen families, not just random people out there tuning in.
DesertRat
(27,995 posts)But, I can watch on CSPAN and send tweets about it during the dinner.
It will be interesting to see if the cable news stations cover the dinner or 45's self-congratulatory rally.
oldtime dfl_er
(6,931 posts)If you are a twitter user, TWEET THE HELL OUT OF THE CORRESPONDENTS' DINNER! Make it trend as much as possible. Use hashtags #WHCD and #WhiteHouseCorrespondentsDinner and tweet as much as your fingers will allow. Knock any coverage of the "big rally" right out of twitter.
This is worth joining twitter for. Even if you don't have a single follower, and you never use twitter again, just joining and using those hashtags to tweet will be helpful.
Let's do this!
