Donald Trump Attends Rescheduled White House Correspondents’ Dinner In Washington, D.C.

The White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner returned to Washington after the original event was abruptly cancelled following an alleged assassination attempt targeting US President Donald Trump. Trump entered the replacement dinner to cheers and applause as guests gathered under heightened security at the Waldorf Astoria. In his remarks, Trump addressed the attack and joked about the event being held for a second time. The smaller gathering also recognised journalism award and scholarship recipients, with the association saying it wanted to ensure the attack did not have the final word.
