The only reason anyone watched these things was the comedian. What’s the point now?
Instead, maybe watch a classic one like [Al Franken at the 1996 dinner](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fR7r4CXfIpU). His Al D’Amato impression kills in the room, though I doubt anyone has heard D’Amato speak in the last couple decades.
Dude is afraid he’ll shit his pants not laughing.
It’s a shame Trump won’t be there. I love watching him squirm when he’s the butt of the joke…
Suggest renaming it to the “useless cowardly ass corporate media associates dinner that sold out democracy like a bunch of little bitches for some temporary dollars until they get deported if the shitheel they continue to sanewash has his way”.
Is Trump too afraid to be there?
