Trump to hold rally same night as White House Correspondents Dinner; which one will you watch?

President Donald Trump’s re-election campaign team announced Tuesday that he will hold a rally in Washington, Pennsylvania on the same night and at the same time as reporters gather for their celebration.

“While the fake news media will be celebrating themselves with the denizens of Washington society in the swamp that evening, President Trump will be in a completely different Washington, celebrating our national economic revival with patriotic Americans, the Trump campaign’s chief operating officer Michael Glassner said in a statement.

“The president is really looking forward to highlighting the growing success of his economic policies for Michiganders, including historic deregulation and tax cuts that are delivering a pay raise to working families; resulting in record-low unemployment, remarkable reductions in food stamp enrollment, and a return of the American dream for millions of families,” Glassner said.

The snub is a repeat of last year when Trump held a rally in Harrisburg, PA at the same time the press celebration occurred.

The rally will be held at Total Sports Park in Washington, PA, which is in Macomb County which Trump won by 50,000 votes and 54% of the total in the 2016 election.    https://www.conservativedailynews.com/2018/04/trump-to-hold-rally-same-night-as-white-house-correspondents-dinner-which-one-will-you-watch/

Not a problem for me, I think it's a good thing that the Correspondents at the dinner are correspondents because generally they'd starve to death as comedians and although watching trump preen and sprain himself patting himself on the back in front of the fux flock IS indeed much more entertaining, it gets real old real fast he as he meanders down the dark passages of what passes for his mind.

Besides, he wouldn't get enough of the limelight hosting the dinner, this way it's all for and about him AND they'll laugh at his jokes like they are funny as long as they're against minorities or Democrats.

I think I will get by finding something to do or watch three stooges or old bugs bunny cartoons, something more entertaining and informative. No loss. Both events with have every word analyzed, cross-referenced, quoted, misquoted and elaborated on.

Happy

Why would the President ever attend a dinner with the childish 4th Estate that has spent the last couple years trashing him? 

BTW, the whole 'Fux' thing is incredibly childish.  Anyone that uses words like that on an adult forum, taints their own credibility.

Telling the truth isn't trashing him.  Unlike Fox News, those correspondents do not work for either him or the GOP.

I'll likely watch the Correspondents Dinner.  This dinner is about paying respect to the 4th estate and the 1st Amendments freedom of the press.  The President is supposed to get roasted and be a good sport about it.  They are not there to polish his ego.

Obama was glowing after his dinner.

Obama was glowing after his dinner.

Obama attended 8 press club dinners. He understood the freedom of the press and respected their role in a free country. He was able to laugh at himself and tell self-effacing jokes, like a well-adjusted person.

If you don't like what the majority of the press reports then stop doing it.

No, he knew that they would cover for him at any cost, and the same with Hillary. He was never disappointed.

Politicians and the press are designed to have an adversarial relationship. The 1st Amendment's guarantee of freedom of the press was written so the press can keep the government honest by reporting all of what happens, especially what the politicians want to be ignored or buried.

Do you need a Fox News safe space that is protected from the intrusion of logic?

Do journalists win Pulitzer and Peabody prizes for being dupes?

I won't be watching either of them, but I do know enough about it to know that one will be a sophisticated and lighthearted lampooning of the Washington political scene expressed with wit and incisive comic analysis, and the other will be the Trump rally.

Where every other word Trump utters will be, "Believe me", while mentally laughing his azz off at the fools in front of him that actually believe his lies.

Trump had to reschedule his rally so it wouldn't conflict with another rally his supporters had previously scheduled in Georgia:

The National Socialist Movement, a far-right hate group that celebrates Adolf Hitler’s birthday, will hold a rally at a park in downtown Newnan on Saturday afternoon. The neo-Nazis expect a turnout of 50 to 100. But they’ll also draw anti-fascist demonstrators as well as hundreds of police officers.

“We will be hitting on all of the hot-button issues,” Burt Colucci, the “chief of staff” for the National Socialist Movement, said. “If it is controversial in America, we gonna talk about it.” The neo-Nazis are at war with a lot of people, including about 50,000 people who signed a petition on change.org that opposes the rally permit and urges a massive counter-demonstration.
