(19,101 posts)(TPM) "President Donald Trump during a press conference revealed some of what he had planned for the White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday night before the event was disrupted by a shooting."
'I was all set to really rip it,' Trump said of his planned remarks. 'I said to my people, This would be the most inappropriate speech ever made.
So, Ill have to save it.' "
"Trump, who has regularly attacked what he calls the 'fake news' media, has previously boycotted the annual press event, which has been traditionally attended by other presidents. He decided to attend this year and members of his team indicated he planned a fiery speech."
"The president discussed the original plans for his remarks after noting that he has called for the event to be held again in the 'next 30 days or sooner.' He also said that he was eager to try and continue this evening, but was dissuaded by security personnel because 'it was protocol.' "
'We very much
wanted to continue it because I dont like to let these sick people, these thugs, these horrible, horrible people change the fabric of our lives, change the course of what we do,' Trump said."
"After declaring he was 'ready, willing, and able' to participate in the event, Trump indicated his remarks at the rescheduled iteration of the dinner will be far different from those he initially planned."
'I dont know if I could ever be as rough as I was going tonight,' said Trump. 'I think Im going to be probably very nice. Ill be very boring for next time, but were going to have a great event.' "
