Trump made a return to the White House Correspondents’ Dinner after its April cancellation due to a shooting scare, delivering a speech packed with biting jabs at the media, politicians, and celebrities — while also joking about bulletproof vests and his own sensitivity to criticism. He teased that his original remarks were meant to be far more explosive, even quipping that while their lives were in danger the first time, at least their careers survived. Despite the barbs, he admitted he might be overly sensitive to negative coverage, acknowledging that some people genuinely dislike him — a remark that comes amid growing concerns from press freedom groups about lawsuits and access restrictions. The dinner, which honors journalism and press freedom, this year spotlighted reporters who covered the administration critically — including one Trump had sued — and he even admitted he’d skipped the event in his first term before changing his mind.
