For the second consecutive year, President Trump plans to counter-program the annual White House correspondents' dinner.
The president's re-election campaign announced Tuesday that he will host a rally in Michigan at 7 p.m. on Saturday, April 28, while the gathering of elite journalists, celebrities, and political professionals is underway back in Washington. Trump held a similar event in Pennsylvania on the night of the correspondents' dinner last year.
"While media celebrate themselves with DC swamp, president celebrates American economic revival," read the banner on the campaign's announcement.
