The "NOT THIS SH*T AGAIN" FACEPALM: During WHC Dinner shooting, SCAVINO "tried to fire up a "USA! USA!" chant"

MeidasTouch

NEW: In the middle of the chaos at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, one painfully awkward is going viral and the whole Internet is laughing.

As guests were still shaken from the shooting scare, Dan Scavino suddenly tried to fire up a “USA! USA!” chant — clearly going for some big, cinematic rally moment.

It… did not go well.

Per Peter Hamby and footage reviewed from inside the room, the response was total silence. No one joined in. Not even Trump allies. Just a collective “are you serious right now?” energy. In fact, the one thing you could hear was a chorus of “shhhhhhs” from the audience.
Absolute cringe.

You know Traitor Trump could not deal with the images of him and Epstein projected on the building and the dissension at the show. What better way to flip the narrative again.

...a $100 "Fight! Fight! Fight!" coffee table book, and "Fight! Fight! Fight!" cologne for men and women, $200 each.

But no, there's nothing fishy about any of this, right?

I'm NOT a "tinfoil hat" conspiracy theory guy. But when something stinks, it stinks. It's as simple as that.
