When is the Gridiron program?
Tonight, that is why Trump is coming back.
I guess it won’t be on tv.
The press pool is allowed in to cover the president’s remarks, but not with cameras.
Trump will appear at the Gridiron dinner. The public should be able to see him too.

Will the Gridiron Dinner be on youtube or TV?
Thanks, sweetie. I’m going to look for clips, etc.
If we find anything, we can post, here.
I watched a few minutes, of the arrivals. Didn’t see anyone I recognized :(
The escalators appear to not be working :(
Ladies are having to carefully walk down steps, holding their dresses and railing.
Yikes.
If you are a big wig you get to use the elevator on the left.
Saw Ivanka and Jared, Sessions and Wilbur use elevator.
Madeline Not To Bright and Chrissy Thrill up my Leg Matthews use the stairs. LOL.
Thank you

Trump, press trade good-natured if barbed jokes at Gridiron
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump and his political allies and opponents found common ground with members of the Washington press corps Saturday night, taking and giving humorous jabs at each other at the annual Gridiron Dinner.
“Nobody does self-deprecating humor better than I do. It’s not even close,” said Trump, who skipped last year’s dinner. He also said: “I was very excited to receive this invitation and ruin your evening in person. That’s why I accepted.”
The annual dinner of the Gridiron Club and Foundation, now in its 133rd year, traced its history to 1885, the year President Grover Cleveland refused to attend. Every president since has come to at least one Gridiron.
“Rest assured, Mr. President, this crowd is way bigger than Cleveland’s,” Club President David Lightman, congressional editor for McClatchy News, told the white-tie audience at the Renaissance Washington Hotel. The organization said the event attracted about 660 journalists, media executives, lawmakers, administration officials and military officers.
Members of the Washington press corps sharpened their wits for musical and rhetorical takedowns of the president, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama. Trump’s own one-liners closed out the evening and included:
—On his son-in-law: “We were late tonight because Jared could not get through security.”
—On Vice President Mike Pence: “He is one of the best straight men you’re ever going to meet … he is straight. Man.” Trump also said, “I really am proud to call him the apprentice “
—On Attorney General Jeff Sessions: “I offered him a ride over and he recused himself. What are you going to do?”
—On The New York Times: “I’m a New York icon. You’re a New York icon. And the only difference is I still own my buildings.”
—On former chief strategist Steven Bannon: “That guy leaked more than the Titanic.”
Appearing to be a good sport at the dinner — he laughed and applauded at times during the evening’s entertainment — Trump had fired off a tweet at the national press hours earlier:
