It's definitely really something to escape death and go back to finish the evening's festivities -
@PaulDitz It certainly does.

@_L1vY_ So what ‘body of the shooter’ did the other press correspondent see at this event? This make the whole thing seem rigged, which frankly would not surprise me at all. Froomkin claimed to have witnessed (and also) not seen the shooter at all.

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.
@_L1vY_ Amazing thread. Boosted. Thank you for the updates. Smells like a false flag. A room full of media is hard for Trump to resist a fascist spectacle.

@_L1vY_ Then again, he did bomb a school full of girls. Someone might not like him very much.
