"Trump mixed a tribute to law enforcement with an extended roast of the press, Democrats, and celebrities. He capped it by pulling out a red “Trump 2028” hat and joking that he planned to run for a fourth term."
. . . "I hope that everyone finally got to enjoy their entire, very delicious beef tenderloin, very special beef. And I want you all to know that Bobby Kennedy, who’s right here, personally ran over the cow with his car. And he cut it up, and he brought it here for you to eat tonight. So it’s very fresh. Bobby also suggested an appetizer featuring his favorite cut of male raccoon roadkill, but we drew the line at that."
"That drew one of the night’s biggest laughs.
"One of Trump’s prepared jokes did not go over quite as well. Rather than simply move on, he turned on the speech itself.
Does anybody get that? I thought that was actually pretty good. That was actually the only thing I thought was good in this whole freaking stupid speech. The only good one, and that went down with not exactly great laughter.
"Trump briefly shifted away from the jokes to discuss Iran, claiming the country’s military had been devastated and that Tehran was now talking with the United States about a possible deal. He said any agreement would require Iran to remain without a nuclear weapon.
"The president later recalled being roasted by former President Barack Obama during the 2011 dinner, an appearance that has long been linked to Trump’s eventual decision to enter politics." . . .
