The comedian who got some flack for roasting White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ eyeshadow at the White House Correspondents Dinner last year, joked that President Trump probably isn’t going to the gathering again this year because he doesn’t “have a big enough spine to attend,” Variety reported.

“He’s probably just really busy. You know, he’s got to golf. And honestly I don’t know if anyone really wants to watch him eat, so I think it’s for the best,” Michelle Wolf told Variety. “You got to love someone that just can’t handle being made fun of. … I think he doesn’t have a big enough spine to attend. If a president can’t take someone making fun of them, I don’t really care about them.”

Trump told reporters on Friday that he doesn’t plan to attend the event again this year because it is “boring” and “too negative.”
