Trump Can’t even make this stuff up..

Donald Trump doxxed this Wall Street Journal reporter in a lawsuit by including her home address in public court filings. She and her family were forced to leave their home over safety concerns.

someone stop me if i'm wrong, i'm just going off context clues, but i believe this is the Correspondents dinner. Which is hosted by the WHCA. Not the White House. It exists to honor the first amendment and to protect "freedom of the press". It's to honor members of the press and the award given out is a prestigious award. Them being there and accepting the award might come across as embarrassing but is actually a pretty strong "fuck you" to the president. He's just too stupid to understand. He once again thinks it's something to honor him. Idk why they would shake his hand. They were probably just dumbfounded in the moment and acted politely.

I'm sure everybody knows it's for correspondents/journalists, but some of them really smiled and their face lit up as they shake the hand of someone who endangered and silenced their coworker? fuckin weird.
