The event is similar to the White House Correspondents' dinner — which Trump did not attend last year. It features roast-style speeches, skits and comedy from both lawmakers and journalists.

Trump’s speech was filled with self-deprecating humor and slight jabs at his own administration and his usual political targets.

During his speech, Trump joked that he was late “because Jared couldn’t get through security,” referring to his senior adviser and son-in-law Jared Kushner Jared Corey KushnerAbraham Accords: New hope for peace in Middle East Tenants in Kushner building file lawsuit alleging dangerous living conditions Trump hosts Israel, UAE, Bahrain for historic signing MORE recently having his security clearance downgraded.

He also joked that Vice President Pence is just waiting for him to be impeached but added that “you can’t be impeached when there’s no crime.”

"Lately [Pence is] showing a particularly keen interest in the news these days. He wakes up every morning and asks, 'has he been impeached yet?' I don’t like that," Trump said.

Almost every president has attended the event since it began in 1855.
