For First Time in 140 Years Elite Fake News Media Refuses to Toast President Trump at Annual Gridiron Dinner – Instead They Toasted Free Speech, Something They Despise

The elite media is no longer even trying to pretend to be non-partisan. They are out and proud in their hatred for President Trump and the Americans who support him.

Journalist Mark Halperin reported on his 2WAY internet show this week that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt will not be attending the annual White House Correspondent’s Dinner this year. Neither will President Trump. They are tired of playing pretend games with a vicious legacy media that hates them to the core.

Halperin also announced that for the first time in 100 years (actually 140 years) the elite press did not toast President Trump this year at their annual dinner.

Instead, the fake news toasted the First Amendment! The gall of these people! They said nothing when reporters and media outlets like The Gateway Pundit were persecuted by the government censorship apparatus and sued by top law firms worth billions of dollars.

These people are just wicked. But at least they are admitting they are on the other side. Give them some credit.

Mark Halperin: The other thing that happened with the media in the White House since we last met was the Grit Iron dinner, which is like a smaller, more exclusive, but also more elite annual dinner where the press and administration officials typically get together. Not only did only one cabinet member then, and neither the President nor the vice President, but the toast, which for over 100 years at the end of the meal has been a toast to the President, whoever the President is, went to the First Amendment. If you’re an insider, if you’re Jeffrey Woodriff, who’s the head of the dinner, or someone like that, this is a seminal moment in American history and relations between the media and the White House.
