I’m sure it’s just a routine formality that the White House Correspondents Association invites every president, every year to attend their annual dinner, only this year the corpulent orange pedophile has accepted the invitation, and has of course turned it into a notable accomplishment. It’s not. But still…this man suffers from a tragic metastatic cancer of the narcissism gland.
The White House Correspondents Association has asked me, very nicely, to be the Honoree at this year’s Dinner, a long and storied tradition since it began in 1924, under then President Calvin Coolidge. In honor of our Nation’s 250th Birthday, and the fact that these “Correspondents” now admit that | am truly one of the Greatest Presidents in the History of our Country, the G.O.A.T., according to many, it will be my Honor to accept their invitation, and work to make it the GREATEST, HOTTEST, and MOST SPECTACULAR DINNER, OF ANY KIND, EVER! Because the Press was extraordinarily bad to me, FAKE NEWS ALL, right from the beginning of my First Term, | boycotted the event, and never went as Honoree. However, | look forward to being with everyone this year.
I have doubts that many of these “Correspondents” now admit that | am truly one of the Greatest Presidents in the History of our Country, the G.O.A.T., according to many,
but now that he has packed the White House press room with toadies from the fringes of “journalism”, he might just have a few more supporters in attendance. I will be disappointed if the real journalists in the room don’t turn it into a roast. Ah, screw it, I expect to be disappointed and for this to be nothing but an exercise in applied sycophancy. The media sucks.
He even expects the food to be the GREATEST, HOTTEST, and MOST SPECTACULAR
? Serve him cold, bland porridge, and dump it in his lap.
Goat? Yes.
G.O.A.T.? No
Cud chewing is just about his speed these days.
Kristi Noem should take the G.O.A.T. for a visit to the gravel quarry.
…and deal with the Old Yeller while they are there. It’s her MO.
They’ll probably serve his favorite meal: Big Mac and Diet Soda 🤮
He put correspondents in scare quotes. Sounds about right.
The White House dinners commemorating America’s best athletes on their special day are from a more limited fast food menu of what they’d order for themselves, with more time between being cooked and being served. Since the tyrannical toddler is an even more special boy than any athlete, the dinner should match. Hot tea and Filet O Fish for everyone, with the food delivered and set aside in a room since morning, and nothing else.
Trump probably thinks he will be treated well now because he has frightened them (and their bosses) enough, and there will be patriotism during the war. Of course Trump means fawning submission by well so he will probably be unhappy with how it comes out even if they don’t roast him.
It’s anybodies guess if he actually shows up. If the war continues to go badly and be massively unpopular he is likely to back out. He won’t need much and the war gives him lots of excuses.
Fortunately, PZ, you’ve never had to attend any of these dinners. Trust me — the porridge would be more palatable (even to committed carnivores) than the usual rubber-chicken-cordon-bleh. So you’re actually suggesting special treatment… and thought would just reinforce the narcissism.
Nope. No “special meals” allowed. Rubber chicken for all!
“that thought” (darned eye issues)
His USE of CAPSlock is astounDING.
Because I’m seriously old and stupid, I had to look up G.O.A.T. Per the Dysfunctional Literacy website (here), in reference to LaBron James calling himself G.O.A.T, “If you have to call yourself the G.O.A.T., then you’re not the G.O.A.T.”
Kind of like if you have to call out Democrats for not giving you standing ovations at your 5 hour SOTU bloviation and call them crazy, then your remark wasn’t really worthy of a standing ovation, and you’re the crazy one in the room.
Perhaps G.O.A.T in Dumb Don’s world means “Giant Old Ass Turd”.
It’d be laughable if he didn’t have so many enablers.
I’m stupid to even respond to this, but his idiot ass reminds me of Muhammad Ali: “im the greatest!“. Oh, Yeah, that was so real.
If he wants the HOTTEST porridge delivered in SPECTACULAR fashion, surely it’d be the staff’s patriotic duty to oblige.
willj@12
Are you seriously comparing Trump with Muhammad Ali?
Seriously?
“GREATEST, HOTTEST, and MOST SPECTACULAR DINNER” – greasy fried chicken, over-cooked steak with ketchup, and gold-plated diet coke cans.
@12. willj : Er, Muhammad Ali actually was the greatest – atleats when itcme to boxing and was an awesome human being too.
Trump , OTOH, is an utter fraud.
When narcissism and dementia collide?
His abuse of adjectives isn’t new, but it is alarming that he thinks being invited to an event means he is now “working with” the WH press to plan the bestest, hottest dinner that ever happened.
I hope they prepare him a special meal, like a cold Macdonalds burger on a paper plate.
Tethys
With THREE scoops of ice cream.
vanilla, of course
G for Ghastliest?
If I was in charge of the menu, I would pick something that is both tasty, and a disaster for elderly digestive tracts. With a bit of luck, he could end up like The Greatest (by which I mean Elvis).
