Trump Slams WHCD and Michelle Wolf, Echoes Fox Host's Suggestion Greg Gutfeld Should Host

Source: Mediate

President Trump did not attend the White House Correspondents Dinner yesterday, but he tweeted about it while watching Fox & Friends this morning.

The President first sent a message to the people who came to see him speak in Michigan last night:




As for the dinner, Trump echoed the sentiments of what the Fox & Friends Weekend hosts were saying:

And it seems like the President agrees.

I enjoyed his late night show back in the 90's and a lot of his stand up at that point. But he was like a lot of people that just broke hard with 9/11.

@DennisDMZ
What a horrid human being Michelle Wolf is. I'm going to read up on her over the next couple of days and I will have a few brutally mean jokes about her by Wednesday.

This is why Dennis Miller sucks at improv.

I think the guy who draws Mallard Fillmore works a two week lead time. He'll figure out how to sketch an insulting caricature of Wolfe around memorial day.

Miller is a blitzkrieg of conservative humor by comparison. Like Don Rickles, but not funny.

It was called "Fridays," as I recall. It quickly bombed. They just can't do comedy.

...why doesn't he book a bigger venue? After all, it seems to happen time and again for him.

I imagine Little Caesars Arena downtown is available in the Detroit Pistons off season.

Would have delivered roast-style jokes written by people like Andrew Dice Clay, Jim Norton, and Dennis Miller, but without referring to racism or sexism.
