@L1vY@mstdn.social If there's one thing we know is that Trump and his cadre loves spectacle and reality TV stakes, wouldn't take much to assume this was a simple stunt to juice interest and parade himself as someone his haters can't resist trying to take down but they can't, he's just that special and good.
@nini Especially given his abysmal "ratings" lately due to the economy and the war.

There is a movie from the 70s that it seems everyone has forgotten about. "Being There" is the title. It's about a man who spent his entire life learning about the real world from television, and through an accident, is introduced to the world of the rich and famous, where his simple words about gardening (the only thing he truly knows) are mistaken as genius political bon-mots. I've wanted to do a remake of it, only evil.

I'm shocked that it has never once been referenced in any discussion I've ever heard about Donald Trump. Everything that comes out of the mouth of this filthpig is about popularity or ratings.

A lot of people angry and outraged about the jerks attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner. A lot of journalists are refraining. But too many are in attendance regardless.
I picture this is also the kind of thing that will happen if he gets that damn "ballroom" built. People just can't seem to resist a party, even one thrown by their sworn enemies.
I was shocked to see so many people there...

"Suspect, 31, Apprehended in White House Correspondents’ Dinner Shooting"
Suspect, 31, Apprehended in White House Correspondents’ Dinner Shooting
The president referred to him as a “whack job.”
The Daily Beast (www.thedailybeast.com)
Trump posted a security camera clip of the security checkpoint as the suspect just runs through it from stage left, practically bowling over the lackadaisical Secret Service members.

Had to have been paid actor. The roof job looked like an orange diversion. This, totally.

he runs past at least six officers before they even have their guns drawn, lol."

But boy howdy does it grate when I see hundreds of elite 'colleagues' crow half-heartedly about press freedom as they sit and dine off gilded plates, and then some of them yell at us for having no sympathy when the violence comes to their front door."

The feds gassed the shit out of us, knocked us over, sent in the local PD to harass, detain, and hurt us, shot a teenaged photographer in the face and he lost an eye, and that's just in LA."
