Great evening last night in Washington, Michigan. The enthusiasm, knowledge and love in that room was unreal. To the many thousands of people who couldn’t get in, I cherish you….and will be back!

On Saturday President Trump held a rally in Washington, Michigan skipping the White House Correspondents Dinner for the second year in a row, here are some highlights:
Clip from CNN:
In this Clip President Trump speaking about the meeting between the Korean leaders:
I had one of the fake news groups this morning, they were saying, what do you think President Trump had to do with it, um, how about everything
Some in the crowd chant “Noble Noble Noble” prior to his comments around the 12 minute mark from the full rally video posted below.
Trump now claims that Natalia Veselnitskaya is only saying she's an "informant" with ties to the Kremlin because Putin realized how hard Trump has been on Russia and he wants to make the U.S. more chaotic. (via Fox) pic.twitter.com/NiZKeigPpO

In the above clip President Trump talks about Russia collusion, it comes about the 19 minute mark in the full rally posted below.
Nobodies been tougher on Russia. You know why, if she did that, because Putin and the group said, “you know this Trump guy is killing us, go out and say you work for the government.”
Trump strangely says (twice) that "nobody knows what a community college is," seems to think that vocational schools don't currently exist and need to be brought back. (via Fox) pic.twitter.com/SPIbfYIwa7

Sunday Morning Trump Tweets:
While Washington, Michigan, was a big success, Washington, D.C., just didn’t work. Everyone is talking about the fact that the White House Correspondents Dinner was a very big, boring bust…the so-called comedian really “bombed.” @greggutfeld should host next year! @PeteHegseth
