Trump says he won’t attend correspondents dinner this spring
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump says he won’t be attending the annual White House Correspondents’ Association dinner this spring.
In a tweet on Saturday, the president doesn’t give a reason but says he wishes “everyone well and have a great evening!”
The annual fundraiser for college scholarships mixes politicians, journalists and celebrities.
Trump has long had an adversarial relationship with news media. In recent weeks, he has accused some news outlets of publishing “fake news.”
