## Resource

The president returned to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner—rescheduled after an April shooting—with a mix of humor, bravado, and pointed jabs at the press, marking a rare moment of levity amid a tense relationship with reporters. He roasted his own speechwriters, mocked awards that challenged his administration, and playfully declared he’d run again in 2028. While he boasted about rebuilding the Waldorf Astoria and praised resilience, his jokes drew muted reactions, contrasting with the event’s somber origins. Two new awards honored a Secret Service agent who stopped the shooter and the Washington Hilton staff for their calm under fire. Critics argue the dinner’s rescheduling undermines journalism’s credibility, especially as tensions with the press continue to escalate.
