President Trump on Friday said that he once again would not be attending the White House Correspondents’ Association (WHCA) dinner set for later this month. While criticizing the annual event scheduled for April 27, the president said he had other plans for the day. "The dinner is so boring and so negative that we're going to hold a very positive rally instead," Trump said. Trump has not attended the dinner since he took office, but had suggested he might appear this year after the organization adjusted their plans and invited Pulitzer Prize-winning author Ron Chernow to speak instead of a comedian. Fox News’ Bradford Betz, Paulina Dedaj and The Associated Press contributed to this report.
