The White House Correspondents’ Association responded to President Trump’s praise of the congressman who body slammed a reporter last year on Friday, condemning Trump’s behavior and suggesting “all Americans should recoil” at his comment.

All Americans will recoil.
Defining “Americans,” of course, to exclude everyone who needs a daily affirmation of the right to live every moment in bigoted asshole rage, which is what Trump gives them so gleefully.
Ah. They have done the equivalent of a Sternly Worded Letter™.
I’m sure he’s going to turn it around now.
What do you want them to do, body slam him?
I’d like them to boycott the rallies.
Or, honestly, if he can be fixed, work to fix him.
If he can’t be fixed, and even the dumbest motherfuckers are finally coming to that realization, maybe it’s time to start editing the message.
“Donald Trump said nothing of value today.”
