Trump to end boycott of White House Correspondents Association Dinner
March 3, 2026 | Chris Donaldson
President Donald J. Trump announced that he will attend this year’s annual White House Correspondents Association Dinner, suggesting an improved relationship with the national media.
In a Monday evening post to Truth Social, the president said that he has decided to accept the organization’s invitation, ending his boycott of the event, which customarily gives the so-called “watchdogs of democracy” the opportunity to suck up to power and mingle with the Beltway elite.
Citing the event’s long history and the nation’s 250th birthday, Trump seemed willing to let bygones be bygones with the WHCA and, barring a change of heart, will attend the soiree for the first time as president.
