"Someone shooting me, for eating a MEAL? A succulent corrispondant meal?"

No fucks to give

Prob not his first tRump-sassination.

If I die, I die. With a knife in my hand!

How retail workers react to gunfire.
OneUniverse
Still wine to drink and food to eat, and for what this table cost, I'm going to see what happens.

He's becoming known as "the salad man" https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/apr/27/correspondents-dinner-shooting-salad
Columbus43219
Much different than the salad man from the Chris Rock album.
Buffoonery
He's probably seen much worse in many of the meetings he's suffered through over the years.

"You have my sword."
"And you have my bow."
"And my snacks!"

Cake is life! Till death do us part!

If it's the same guy, an agent for Wolf Blitzer, he said he has a bad back and he could get down on the floor but no way to get back up and he's a hygiene freak so no chance he was getting down on the filthy Hilton Hotel floor in his new tux.

Priorities!

Dude's like, "If I'M the mf getting shot tonight, out of ALL these evil bastards, then SO FN BE IT!"
LeifHietala
He's the talent scout that hired the "shooter."
FPAlpha
Read a report on him today. Apparently he's some media CEO with a very bad back so ducking or throwing himself down on the floor was out of the question for him as he wouldn't have been able to get up by himself. Also he's a germaphobe and wouldn't touch the floor or ruin his new suit. And he said he's a New Yorker so trouble and action are nothing new to him.
The definition of I don't give a fuck :D
Shiznit007
He wasn't included on the choreographed evening
wecouldbehappywithoutcapitalism
I doubt he was in on the fake attempt, but it really does seem like we just spectate now. We are so removed from reality and desensitized that we just allow things to happen without normal appropriate responses. More reflective of our collective inaction in this one man than the other rich people who have something to live for in the rest of the room
UncleRat
When you have no fucks to give, but you have a free meal.
KarenFromTheHOA
He is looking very non threatening. I wouldn't shoot.
ThatGuyFromJustSouthOfTheMiddleOfNowhere
I'm seeing Afroman drop a new single here soon.

"If I am to die, I will not die having wasted a perfectly good dinner. Only cowards leave the table early"

Die? The fucking doj was just saying that bullets disappear. They used blanks...

"...A succulent Correspondents’ meal"
charondaboatman
Came here for this. +1
BesticlesTesticles
This is Democracy manifest!
GuyWithDog
A British officer from the looks of it. Maybe in the wrong century, but very British
69thStPepper
He came for dinner, and by God, he'll leave once he's had it
mrsdowneyjr
War correspondent
Wapusk
Brave man! Veteran war correspondent?
leviking
"I was promised a free meal!" - person from print media probably...
Krackajak78
All going according to plan
HolyFreakingToast
the shooter didnt get anywhere near the ballroom. did he?
NicholasAE
These are supposed to be journalists. I’m surprised more of them didn’t keep their heads up.
gardengnomeii
these are not the correspondents that get shot at regularly. these are the soft opinion writers and folks whose only exposure to danger is questionable sushi.
TheOldSchoolisBack
TBF, the correspondents that enter war zones also take cover when shots are fired in their direction.
Ilovetomakestuffup
When the president is there, he will be mostly the only target anyway. Dude had no reason to hide. Also free food.
choppedliveraldente
Maybe a vet
Sawtooth2025
A New Yorker with a bad back and a tasty salad in front of him. He wanted to watch the circus. He’s amazing.
pallara
"Are you guys going to finish that?"...
absinthemindedprofessor
. . . Not to mention all those unattended wine bottles
Dasnekones
Depends on the nature of the assassin. If, for the sake of argument, Iran whom USA is at war with would have organized, say 50 men with guns, and stormed the venue then I doubt that they would spare innocents. Different motives for that kind of terrorism.
NKato
Bingo. These days, it's reliable to look at most terrorist incidents as being homegrown. When you have an insane pedo as president, that tends to become inevitable.
TheWombatStrikesAgain
The SS was also there. That's several people who will potentially fire their guns, and can't be trusted to always identify the correct targets and hit them with every shot.
Every firefight is dangerous.
hsalonen3000
Yeah,but he is clearly there just eating his food. Secret Service will leave that man alone.
randomwalrus
Yeah, but the SS were too busy rushing the wrong person out of the room first.
HurrDurrImABurr
It suggested to me he's more important, because he's a better puppet.
alienstomper
Well the imbecile did say he resisted his detail escorting him out. Also theres and angle where it seems like he falls over. So maybe not more important, just not a geriatric with a diaper more toxic than chernobyl that theyre trying not to spill
H13a
The SS ended in 1945...
...ah wait. Sort of? Maybe? Ehhhh...
