President Trump, for the second year in a row, has run counterprogramming against the White House Correspondent’s Association Dinner. Last year he was in Pittsburgh, PA, this year he’s in Washington, MI. Both states where his surprising wins put him over the top in electoral votes.
Here’s the whole rally. I have it cued up for the beginning of Trump’s speech.

I think Kurt has this right. The Trump-supporters-are-morons narrative is beginning to wear very thin.
"This is Trump Country!"

On the night of the #WHCD, Trump rails against the press at his Michigan rally, pointing to the press box and calling them liars & fake news. He also accused reporters of making up fake sources.
Keep in mind: Trump has used multiple fake personas to brag about himself.

Classic Trump Rally
reminds everyone why Donald Trump won on the first place.— Charles V Payne (@cvpayne) April 29, 2018
I feel bad for people with reflexive Trump hatred because of the little things. Like how they can't laugh every time "You Can't Always Get What You Want" comes on at the end of the rally. That's just funny, I'm sorry.
