Trump Smiles and Shrugs After Epstein Reporters He Sued for $10B Win Awards for Exposing Birthday Card Scandal The recent White House Correspondents' Association dinner was a peculiar spectacle, with President Donald Trump awkwardly standing by as reporters from The Wall Street Journal won awards for their coverage of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.
This development comes on the heels of months of intense clashes between the president and the press corps. Trump's bemused reaction to the award winners is telling.
While he attempted to downplay the significance of the awards, his body language spoke volumes. His awkward smiles and shrugs were a far cry from the bravado typically displayed by the president in public appearances.
