After much speculation, President Trump will be skipping this year’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner on April 28.
A statement by White House Correspondents’ associate president and Bloomberg reporter Margaret Tavev reads (per the L.A. Times), “The White House has informed us that the president does not plan to participate in this year’s dinner but that he will actively encourage members of the executive branch to attend and join us as we celebrate the First Amendment.”
