Five of Trump’s worst jokes from the White House Correspondents’ Dinner

Some of the president’s jokes were met with silence from the audience

  • Stairs:Trump joked that a senator’s wife asked him to come up the stairs and “make love” to her, to which the senator replied: “I can’t do both.”
  • Anderson Cooper- :Trump said that longtime CNN anchor Anderson Cooper has “got a little different persuasion than me, in many ways actually”, in an apparent reference to the fact that Cooper is gay.
  • Bruce Springsteen- :Trump complained that Springsteen made “four political speeches in his three-hour show”, and joked that the rocker’s tour had been renamed “Bored in the USA”.
  • Dylan Mulvaney- :Trump made a bizarre comparison between CNN's Kaitlan Collins and transgender actor and influencer Dylan Mulvaney. The pair are both young women, but otherwise do not resemble each other.
  • Trump 2028:Trump joked that he would run for president again and donned a ‘Trump 2028’ hat. Such a move would be barred by the Constitution.
