A little thing that'll be fun to have back? White House Correspondence Dinners

Oh, they've still technically continued every year, but not as they used to be. All the fun was gone when a humorless, thin-skinned President, unable to take a bit of ribbing, refused to show up.

Biden will be able to take a joke, and comfortably laugh along with us, even when the joke is on him.

try to make up for their inadequacies by being extra tough on the Biden Admin.
Fuck them all and their stupid dinner too.
