Trump Delivers Combative Speech At Rescheduled White House Correspondents' Dinner.

It's no secret, Donald Trump has long been combative with the press, and that trend was still present as he delivered a speech at the rescheduled White House Correspondents Dinner after the first attempt earlier this year had a shocking end. First, there were jokes, then came the jabs at his critics, as the US President addressed a ballroom full of journalists. Cut dangerously short in April. Good evening everybody, let's try this again. And in the words of the US President. As I said three months ago, the show must go on. This is the rescheduled White House Correspondents Dinner in Washington, three months after the original event where an attempt was made on Donald Trump's life. The next thing I knew, a police officer pushed me to the ground and jumped on top of me as if he was trying to protect me. Again, they've all put black tie suits and dresses on. We are back. We will not be intimidated. We refuse to let an act of violence have the final word. And nor is Trump delivering his first speech at the Correspondents Dinner, an event he has traditionally boycotted as President. In America, we do not yield to political violence. The President has addressed a room full of journalists, the very ones he frequently accuses of fake news. Amazing people, a lot of people that I like, some I don't like at all. At the podium for just over an hour, Trump thanked the Secret Service agent who survived being shot during the April 25 assassination attempt. He joked of running for a fourth presidential term, took aim at several journalists, then pivoted to Iran. And by the way, they are talking to us right now, they'd love to make a deal. I don't think they're ready to, I don't think it's time yet, but I'm willing to listen. He says it's all going extremely well, despite recent escalations and his warning just yesterday that the U.S. is locked and loaded for a massive attack. He didn't linger on it, though. I just want to thank you all. It's been an interesting evening, I didn't really know what to expect, and it's far worse than I actually thought. Yet he says he'll be back at the dinner next year.
