How was the attendance?

How was the attendance? I didn't see the crowd for the few minutes I turned it on

I didn't even see that much of it. Neighbors were throwing a party that we went to.

Just a hunch...

Laughing and loving the Snowflake losers of the last election getting there feelings hurt because their President chooses to avoid the den of swamp snakes for some real people that are happy he's their President.

Trump is your President for 6+ more years....embrace it.

Personally I don't see what the big deal is. There are far more pressing issues than the correspondents dinner.
Examples of more pressing issues:
What socks to wear.
Is there fuzz in my belly button.
In short just about anything imaginable is more important than the correspondents dinner in my book.
How about throwing a Pork elimination conference. Every elected rep has to come up with at least 5 pork spending projects that can be eliminated. The pork spenders will then have to justify their bridge to no where, there million dollar rest stops etc. Then our elected reps vote on whether or not to continue funding. The results then published in every reps district.. Just what that rep voted to support spending on.
So if Senator Joe smith votes to continue pork spending on an inflatable beaver damn his constituents will get to see how their rep voted. Make it easy.

There are so many problems with this nation and people are worried about correspondents dinner.

There is no more of a pressing issue for the left than to humiliate Trump.

And nobody obsesses about Trump like the left, which in fact feeds his over developed ego. It must be an issue because 2 years running left leaning posters have made a deal of it.

Dean Martin used to have outrageous roasts. They were hilarious. I don’t know what’s the big deal. Even Ronald Reagan engaged in self deprecating humor.

The best thing Trump did was not go. He’s no fun at all. He’s down right boring. His ego is feeble, his skin is thin and he isn’t witty, glib or imaginative.

So, he went and had his periodical lovefest about...himself. What else?

I didn’t watch the WHCD this year. Took a break from all things Trump and read instead.

That meme is getting old and sorry.

GOPers, conservatives, teabaggers, Trumpers and other assorted swamp dwellers have been having daily conniptions about Bill and Hillary for DECADES with no end in sight.

Pork? Earmarks have been over for a while.

I thought Trump had solved all our problems.

How about Fraud, Waste and Abuse from Scott Pruitt?

Why don’t you tell Trump to do his job instead of playing golf, fretting over hookers, and having “love me” rallies?
