Jimmy Kimmel<\/a> pointed out that while President Donald Trump<\/a> will attend this weekend\u2019s White House Correspondents\u2019 Association dinner<\/a> for the first time, he\u2019s not going to get the full experience.<\/p>\n

The event is typically hosted by a comic, who roasts the president and others in the room.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut our president is a delicate snowflake with the thinnest, fat skin of any human being ever,\u201d Kimmel said. \u201cAnd that means there\u2019s gonna be no comedian this year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Inspired by the right-wing \u201calternative<\/a>\u201d halftime show starring Kid Rock<\/a>, Kimmel offered his own alternative to the WHCA dinner to do \u201csome of the jokes a comedian might do if our president wasn\u2019t a trembling drama queen who\u2019s scared of comedy.\u201d<\/p>\n

What followed was about 8 minutes of ruthless comedy targeting the president, his family and his inner circle as Kimmel donned a tuxedo and stood behind a lectern to deliver his jokes.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe president didn\u2019t want me to tell any jokes about him tonight, but he also didn\u2019t want to pay me $130,000 to shut up,\u201d he began, a reference to his alleged affair with **** star Stormy Daniels<\/a>. \u201cSo, here we are. Sorry, mushroom ****<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also hit Trump on policy.<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Trump has accomplished so much during his second term,\u201d Kimmel said. \u201cHe passed new incentives for oil and gas. He put the brakes on solar and wind. That will be your legacy, sir: breaking wind and passing gas.\u201d<\/p>\n

And he attacked the president for his relationship with late convicted *** offender Jeffrey Epstein<\/a>, who was once a close friend.<\/p>\n

\u201cBefore we go any further: Melania, this is Donald. Donald, this is Melania,\u201d he said, mockingly introducing each to the other, then adding: \u201cThat was my impression of Jeffrey Epstein.\u201d<\/p>\n
