Once again demonstrating their collective cowardice...

Obeying in advance. Can't risk upsetting Don Mangolini. The Mafia Admin wins again.

🙄 🙄

Seeking to avoid political division... through appeasement? Has that ever been effective? The press truly has abandoned their responsibility.

Avoid political division

I mean, the line between parties is now just Anti-fascists | Fascists (Centrists are here as well. Silence is complicity.)

We even got an operational Gestapo

...seeking to avoid political division.

Yes, because Trump's platform is unity.

Instead just one comedian, you get house full of clowns

Wasn't it a correspondence dinner that is considered to be the day he decided to run for president because he was on the verge of tears being made fun of

Should just cancel the whole dinner. This is not normal times anyways.

Trump has no sense of humor. The only reason he ever smiles and laughs is when he knows he's getting something over on somebody.

It's not a shocker that he couldn't even handle the mildest of criticisms from a comedian.

I support that decision. What kind of jokes could a comedian make about all of this? About the resurgence of an autocratic state on the ruins of one of the first modern democracies?

Maybe a conservative, MAGA comedian could do it. But those don't exist. Ask yourself why.

Spineless preemptively compliant cowards.

Seth Meyers' jokes at Trump's expense during the 2011 White House Correspondents dinner have been identified by those close to Trump as the moment he decided to seriously run for President.

Seth Meyers made this problem, it's up to him to fix it. Bonus points if he gets Trump to quit using only jokes.

Lmao "seeking to avoid political division". No you're avoiding dissonance. The GOP MO is to stoke political division, it's literally what gives them power.

Also "anti-trump" comments instead of just calling them concerns or critiques.

Language like this is how consent is manufacturered. Language is powerful at subtly shift how one percieves a situation, and leading people to a predetermined conclusion.

Remember when they had Stephen Colbert roast GW during the dinner? That was peak comedy. These guys are such losers they know Trump won't be able to handle being roasted, and somehow that's OK for a world leader.

The news media is not supposed to be friendly with those in power, no matter who is in power. They're supposed to be a pain in the ass of the president (every president). They're supposed to be the Fourth Estate! They're supposed to be part of the checks and balances. It's always irked me that they do this correspondent's dinner and get all buddy buddy with the Whitehouse.

Absolute PUSSY.

Whoever downvoted, you’re wrong but at least you deprived me of literally nothing in the name of the biggest pussy on the planet. There is not a chance in hell that this was handed down by the board, this was handed down by a man who can’t take a fucking joke even when he is (MAYBE) the most powerful man on the planet, that is the definition of a giant PUSSY.

So fragile

Cancel the entire dinner.

Tiny 🍄 can’t handle criticism of any kind

Pussies.

Cowards.

That's because nothing is funny anymore
