Sarah Sanders joins Trump on stage at rally taking place during White House Correspondents Dinner
WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump focused on his accomplishments, the road forward on key policies and took swipes at both Democrats and the media during a campaign rally in Wisconsin Saturday evening.
In his 448-page report, Mueller detailed "sweeping and systematic" Russian efforts to benefit Trump in the 2016 election and campaign aides eager for the help, though he and his investigators ultimately found no conspiracy between Americans and Russians. He said the investigation"wasn't just about me." Trump told the crowd that the investigation was aimed at hurting supporters who"rose up" and demanded"a government that put America first." As he spoke about unemployment numbers, he pointed to the media at the back of the arena.
"Last year this night I was at a slightly different event. Not quite the best welcome, so this is an amazing honor," she said, taking a swipe at last year's dinner. Ahead of the dinner, aides, some of whom attended last year's event, were told at a staff meeting that Trump did not want them to go to the dinner and boycott it, officials said.
