What possible motivation would you have for attending?

showing your superiority and strength and your good humour.

luckily, no one would ever have connected trump with those virtues anyway.

it's about celebrating how chummy the relationship between the media and the politicians are.

not always....

bush was HATED by the press - but he got balls.

trump is a weak man, so i am not surprised.

it's like going to school if you don't need to or eating vegetables or visiting your girlfriend's parents......no one can make you but you know you should.

Seeing CNN being held to account for producing "infotainment" instead of news is fantastic. CNN literally has no idea. The have an unreslistoc globalized agenda where they think they can fix the world.

i generally like you, cause you got a good sense of humour but this sentiment seems like out of a bizzaro universe for me.

not cause i disagree with your opinion....it's more like i can't understand how anyway would come to the concusion that CNN was especially mean to donald and even if they were they should be punished?

Who cares? The WHCD is just a night to make elitist journalists feel like they're important, although it was always fun to watch Bush and Obama.

those guys got humour.

i hated bush at that time like nothing on earth but he is obviously someone who can take a joke.

Trump is a truly brilliant troll with a wonderful dry sense of humour

let me rephrase.

trump knows how to stick it to other people but is kind of a glass cannon...moderate pushback and he breaks. Tongue
