While holding a rally for supporters in Harrisburg PA, President Trump said he “couldn’t be more thrilled than to be more than 100 miles away from the Washington swamp” referencing Hollywood guests and the media at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
Minutes into Trump’s Harrisburg speech, he told the crowd just how much he preferred spending the evening with supporters than the Washington media.
“A large group of Hollywood actors and Washington media are consoling each other in a hotel ballroom in our nation’s capital right now,” he said. “They are gathered together for the White House correspondents’ dinner without the President.
“And I could not possibly be more thrilled than to be more than 100 miles away from the Washington swamp spending my evening with all of you and with a much, much larger crowd and much better people,” Trump added.
