President Trump has made it known that he’s not going to the White House Correspondents Dinner. Here’s what he’ll be doing instead on Saturday:

“Why would I want to be stuck in a room with a bunch of fake news liberals who hate me?” says Pres Trump about why he won't be attending the WH Correspondents Dinner this weekend. In fundraising email, says he'll be holding a campaign rally in Michigan instead. — Mark Knoller (@markknoller) April 24, 2018

Former Obama speechwriter David Litt is afraid that decision could leave the Republic teetering on the brink of collapse, or something:

Imagine being so inflicted by #TrumpDerangementSyndrome that this becomes a video you expect people to take seriously.https://t.co/gcHDV9pLpP — GammerGamer (@GammerInc) April 27, 2018

Everything Trump does must be turned into a national emergency!

You misspelled “Prom for the Self-aggrandizing.” — Dave (@Conn52J) April 27, 2018

I like how this Obama speechwriter goes from "Presidents need to prove they can take a joke" straight to Obama "owning Trump" at the 2011 dinner. https://t.co/jaOZ8B23ua — BT (@back_ttys) April 27, 2018

'I wrote speeches and jokes for President Obama.' There's a difference? https://t.co/hzrmpfpVzK — NoOneOfConsequence (@StarDogCh4mpion) April 27, 2018

They’re trying — they’re really trying.
