So let me get this right. Trump skips the correspondence dinner all 4 years of his first term and 1 year of his second. His approval ratings drop to new lows. And he decides to go this time, where somehow an active shooter got close enough to cause a scene... again But trump is fine... again...

It took Trump 10 days to create an energy crisis reminiscent of the 1970s, replace Ayatollah Khamenei with Ayatollah Khamenei, and weaken our alliances worldwide. He put American servicemembers in harm’s way, resulting in seven deaths. None of this made you safer or better off.
