Donald Trump will be the first president in 36 years to be absent at the White House Correspondents Dinner ― an annual tradition where media figures, politicians and celebrities schmooze for a night.
And while he and his staff likely turned down their invitations because of the president’s deep hatred for the media and so-called “fake news,” the folks over at “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” have figured how to get Trump to attend.
Invite the Russians.
What would that dinner look like? In Trump’s mind, it would probably include a Russian man like Boris Yacanovich riffing on journalists.
It would feature jokes like:
“A journalist criticized the administration. And he was shot dead in the street. In broad daylight.”
And other knee-slappers, including:
Another journalist expressed dissent. And he was dropped out of window. Kaboom.
Fingers crossed that the White House Correspondents Dinner never ends up looking like this.
