Media Now Whining That Trump Is Holding Rally on Night of "#NerdProm," Thus Keeping Some Reporters From Attending

White House correspondents would have to cover a White House-related event.

They had wanted to spend #NerdPromNight sipping other people's champagne and eating other people's caviar.

Now the Bad Man is making them work.


These people are loathsome.

17 So let me get this straight- The WH Correspondents Dinner was going to trash Trump all night, so he chose not to go and listen to them crap on him. They whined about that.

Now he chooses to do something else, and they are whining about that.

Is he supposed to clear his calendar with these F-sticks in order to do anything, and still let them crap on him?


I admit, I am in a horrid mood, especially after reading all of the Politico article on Iran, so I think each and everyone of these scum dwellers can eat a bag of dicks. Some bad, stinky ones, so they don't enjoy it.

21 Why do those attending the dinner have to go?

Can't the local affiliate cover it?

Aren't there some bright young strivers who won't be at the dinner who can be sent to cover it?

Or is that just the problem, you don't dare let anyone else cover Trump in case s/h/it does a good job and you are out of your phony baloney job.

Dear Media:

This is an obvious troll. If you want to counter troll, you send the lowest possible level staffer, hell, send Skippy The Intern and the camera crew from the local community college tv "news" show to cover it. That way Trump can't say you ignored it and you get to party.

Not. Rocket. Surgery.

But aren't they going to be covering the rally?

It would be great if Trump drops a bomb during the rally, something like announcing Hillary's going to be prosecuted or something. Barky could then stand there at the dinner with his dick in his hand and still get no coverage.

Fuck. I hadn't even thought of that.

And of course, he would go, the MFM would gleefully give him all the time he wanted, and he might even allow a little lese majeste at his expense, in contrast to nasty, mean, bully Trump who's too much of a coward to show up in front of the press.

Quote from her post, featuring nekkid pictures, but thankfully no crotch shots this time:

"Since the alt right has been LOVING my other modeling work, I decided now was an oppurtune time to post these photos from a big idea concept I had a bit ago. I was nervous to post them, but now I find great inner strength in them. I am reclaiming the image of me that has been stolen and smeared out of my control. I am unashamed of myself, my body, and my sexuality, and never will be. This is the cat suit, mask, and boots I ended up wearing at Berkeley, and they now hold a bigger significance in my heart than I could ever imagine. This is me just doing what I do best, existing and simultaneously triggering alt right fuck boys with hairy armpits, owned femme sexuality, and queerness. It's time that ANTIFA has a new light shed on it. "

It's actually a pretty awesome win.

1. Trumps keeps them away from Narcissist Prom
2. They don't attend Trumps event, he calls them out for not covering it.

97 "It would be great if Trump drops a bomb during the rally,"

Back in 2011 Obama planned to have Osama killed just before the WHCD, but the mission got delayed a day because of weather. (Go look it up).

If you'll recall, the proceedings at that WHCD were Obama Triumphant and would have fit with announcing an Osama hit.

Instead Obama and Seth Myers hit on Trump -- yes, it was the 2011 WHCD that will go down in infamy

The post was unintentially showing how very idiotic these "sciency" types really are.

Nobody, and I mean nobody, is against science. Except these idiots. All they want is government money so they won't have to do something productive. If their "science" is so damned valuable, find somebody who wants to make a profit off of it and get busy. Otherwise, STFU and DIAF.

But these guys whining that they have to do their job, that makes me giggle like a schoolgirl. Their tears do indeed taste delicious and Trump giving them the finger is hilarious.

They had a chance. If they'd just been smart and not so rabidly partisan, they could have been nice to Trump at his inauguration and treated him with respect for the first 100 days or so. IF they and the left had kissed up to and been nice to him, Trump would have almost certainly been Bill Clinton II. He would have easily been manipulated.

Instead, they threw a 6 month tantrum and threw crap at him and now they're reaping their reward.

Supposedly /pol/ identified one of the Berkley rioters because hey you could see his eyes over the mask and they found out everything about him. Name, address, where he worked, teaching schedule, every single thing.

Now, someone pointed out that it may be the /pol/ didn't so much as do that as say they did that whilst having a mole in the Antifa group.

I'm actually inclined to behold the power of this weaponized autism over the mole but either option should put fear in the hearts of the rioters.

I should note that I am not saying that I approve of the nihilistic jackals of 4chan because no. I sincerely hope I never do anything that causes anons to decide that mucking about with me amuses them.

I mean, hell, I think they hunted down Shia's cabin in Finland based on an analysis of the wood panel pattern behind him in some pictures, analysis of rental patterns and review of pictures of furniture placement.

171 139 The organization that puts on the White House Correspondence Dinner (despite now having the actual WH no longer involved) who funds this?

Who pays for the venue and the salaries for this org?
Posted by: Maritime at April 24, 2017 03:01 PM (espai)
--------------------------------------
It's the WH Correspondents Association, a private group.
The dinner is given at a private locale, not at the WH.

They pay for the banquet, which is supposed to be a fund-raiser for journo edjimacation fund or something. Heh. I think that, after expenses, they actually raise about $35,000. So that's just the EXCUSE for ruling-class smoozery and haute couture gowns.

You're gonna pay in blood for all your vicious slander
With your ugly pale skins and your putrid blue eyes
Why should I feel pity when you kill your own and feel no shame

Trump hasn't left the US yet. He doesn't have a 43 person entourage for Melania that will require 3 floors of a hotel.

Trump got roasted at the 2011 WHCD so he's paid it forward as far as I'm concerned. And watch that video, where Seth Meyer, (ahem head writer at SNL) tells jokes with all the skill of a 12-year-old. Obama mugs like a smug snotty teen as well. Kobra Kai levels of douchery. Trump sits like a statue and gives away nothing.

249 206 Remember when the Moochettes took a spring break trip to Mexico with several of their BFF's?

That one was unconscionable.
Little Malia's school friends are taking a trip to Mexico on spring break. She (of course) wants to go --- which costs over $20 million in security.

My response would be to tell her that is out of line.
There are benefits to being the president's daughter but also responsibilities. You can't do everything your friends can do.

It would have been a great learning moment for the kid.
All she learned is I-AM-SPECIAL and can do whatever I want, no matter the cost to someone else.

Incidentally, Little Marco Rubio was on the Sunday Circuit complimenting Donald Trump on handling of North Korea, based on some 'inside information' he heard.

'Asked the right questions' and 'handed off to the right people' - comments of that ilk.

251 IC, I'm thinking that the US and China are now effectively on the same page, for at least this chapter of the Nork saga, and might be coordinating public happenings to maximize pressure and demonstrate resolve.


E Pluribus, War Powers Act is unconstitutional and no president has/ever will do more than comply with parts of it as a courtesy and as good politics and management. Which won't stop many electrons from being expended here lamenting the usual things.


But calling the entire Senate to the WH for a briefing from the SecDef, SecState, intel chief, and JCS Chmn is unusual, to say the least. Delegations of such big guns doing briefings in S-207(?) (Capitol secure room where senaors often get briefed) was not unusual around big events (Gulf War, etc.), but summong the entire herd of cats to the WH is interesting. Perhaps just theatrics, but with a purpose.

256 Does "triggering" in this context mean "making alt right fuck boys laugh hysterically?"
Posted by: Donna and V.


There's actually a very important "sexual dynamic" going on that is driving this whole interchange:

Louise Rosealma is a dominatrix/exhibitionist -- not a pretend one for money, but an actual one, someone who is sexually aroused by exposing themselves to and thereby "controlling" the psyches of victims/submissives.

I wrote an interesting analysis of this psychological dysfunction in one of my earlier photo essays, noting that people who display themselves naked/masturbating in public in SF are in fact having sex with you whether you realize it or not. Since they are sexually aroused by manipulating/controlling viewers, they expose themselves to you in order to make you a part of their sex act (a least in their minds).

So what is happen now is that, on one hand, the alt-right boys are jerking off in their basements looking at naked pictures of Moldylocks, while she is becoming sexually aroused at the knowledge that she is "controlling" them with her body.

Basically, there is now a sexual relationship between Antifa and the alt-right -- a twisted modern version of Romeo and Juliet! Each is getting exactly what they want out of the relationship, while still declaring "I hate you!"

Yet another way in which the modern world is really really fucked-up.

260 I'm reminded of a story about President Bush (George W.) and how he refused to leave Washington D.C. until after Christmas, so that all of the attendant personnel that would have to go with him when he left town could spend the holiday with their families. The press still savaged him, and worshiped the ground Obama walked on when he didn't give a damn about anybody but himself.

They deserve everything Trump gives them, good and hard.

I think he's going through the motions of notifying the Senate that something is up. Not specifically asking or invoking anything. Or just sending another candy-gram to Phat Boi by way of some Sena-toys who can't keep their mouths shut if their lives depended on it.

Or like the Reagan Ranch in CA. Property owned , improved and paid for by Pres. Reagan, just like Bush and Trump have done.

Unlike the Democrats such as Clinton and Obama, who had zero properties because they simply live off everyone else until they make millions off of the office. They wait to buy said properties until they are out of office and don't have to actually take working vacations there.

Reagan hosted heads of state at Rancho de Cielo that included Queen Elizabeth, Mikhail Gorbachev, Margaret Thatcher, Brian Mulroney, etc. Called the Western White House.

HW Bush also hosted heads of state at his Kennebunkport Maine estate, including Rabin of Israel, and John Major, PM of Great Britain.

We all know how much the media loathed going to Crawford Texas to camp out at Bush's ranch there, which has had too many foreign dignitaries visiting to list. Putin, Sharon, Abdullah, Merkel, Mubarek, on and on.

So spare me the liberal howls about how much it costs for Trump to fly down to Florida and host a dignitary , which is why he has been there virtually every trip. Not to mention the huge Heat Association fund raiser that has been held there every year for a couple of decades and always has the US president as it's honorary host.

Antifa chatter in various social media outlets indicates a great deal of discussion regarding escalation to firearms--more or less in response to the trouncing they took at Berkeley although anyone looking could see this kind of escalation coming.

Personally, I think all of the Antifa gun talk going on is misdirection. The shadowy operatives behind the scenes managing this Antifa street theater bullshit can't possibly believe these idiot children are capable of engaging in a real-deal, life-or-death gunfight.

I'm guessing they'll go with bombs, which--from the bomber's perspective--are (usually) safe and anonymous. Unless you're making them while high. Or from a 60's Weathermen cookbook.

That was when he decided not necessarily to run because he had been thinking about it for 20 years, THAT is when Trump decided to un-DO, un-ravel, and obliterate Obama's Legacy.
