What's new? Good evening, everyone. The White House Correspondents Association dinner erupted in chaos after a crazed gunman rushed to the security checkpoint and opened fire. The man was immediately grabbed, tackled to the ground, and offered his own primetime show on CNN. Good news, though, Nancy Pelosi was safe as she was wearing a bulletproof face. When reached for comment, Joe Biden said, it's times like these that make me glad I'm already dead. Witnesses at the event had reported multiple shots. Did someone say multiple shots?

Asked one woman. Witnesses say they first heard a loud bang, but had simply assumed that Chris Christie just tried the chili. Minnesota Governor Tim Walts was not at the event, yet he still somehow fled the scene. Many guests pointed out the lax security measures at the venue in the wake of the shooting. In fact, many were shocked. They would let in a deranged lunatic. without any friends. But true, the shooting took place at the D.C. Hilton, the same venue where Reagan was shot. So for the rescheduled event happening in a month,

organizers will look for a venue with less chance of gunfire, like Beirut. Most in the media president at the event expressed shock over the incident. Although CNN's Brian Stelter wondered, why couldn't they have held the assassination attempt until after dessert? To prevent people from entering dangerous parts of the building,

the secret service closed off several areas. To ensure no one entered certain rooms, they put these on the doors. After the guests left, crews were seen packing up the ballroom, and one team of experts was called in to clean the plates. We'll be back with more Gutfeld. So obviously, Saturday night, a gunman opened fire at the White House Correspondents Association dinner to avoid bullets. Guests ducked under tables, joining Don Lemon, who was already there.

But when you get shot at three times, respectfully, you got to wonder, why does it keep happening to you? Respectfully, why do you think this keeps happening to you? Well, you know, I've studied assassinations, and I must tell you, the most impactful people, the people that do the most, you take a look at the people, Abraham Lincoln. I mean, you go through the people that have gone through this where they got them. But the people that do the most, the people that make the biggest impact, they're the ones that they go after. It's true. He's been shot at so many times. Even rappers won't go near him. But Trump gave a great answer. But it's only part of the reason he was targeted. True, he's the most fearless action-oriented president ever. And the crazy part is Trump seems to be the least

bothered by it. You talk trash about his beloved Diet Coke, and he'll pummel you with a thousand tweets. Yet getting shot at is something he takes in stride. And there's really only one other president who lived with the constant threat of physical harm. But that was from his wife. Now compare that to Joe. In 60 years, nobody tried to off him, not even once. Do you know why? He wasn't doing anything. He had all the impact of Cousin Oliver on the Brady Bunch. And really, the only time they shoot dead people is in zombie films. Trump's different. He had no love for kicking cans down the road. The only cans he did kick were his opponents. And their response, well, if you can't beat him, kill him. And that's the other reason. Democrats and media created the target. Trump is a Nazi,

a fascist, an existential threat. I could do. a montage that goes on forever, but the fact that this still has to be explained makes me angrier than Bigfoot when he's mistaken for Joy Behar. Meanwhile, Gavin links the shooting to an attack on press freedom. Hakeem and Chuck lumped this attack into a bucket of all violence. And Obama's pretending we don't know why the man did this, just like when Michelle threw away his rollerblades. But we know the violence is strictly one way. So much so, their extremists actually had to pay to create events for our extremists. And yet some leftists are claiming this was staged.

This after the SPLC was exposed for staging large hate events. The irony here is thicker than Rashida Taleb's mustache. The SPLC had to create enemies to fundraise off it. We don't have this luxury. No one from our side had to pay that teacher of the year to come after Trump. No one had to pay that trans fetish nutcase to kill Charlie. No one had to pay the butler guy or had to pay the guy who wanted to assassinate Brett Kavanaugh or who shot Steve Scalise.

Nope, Dems, you grew them, watered them, nurtured them, fertilized them in your echo chamber with your media lies and left-wing propaganda until they were ready to bear fruit. And like I always say, if Democrats aren't calling you Hitler, you're irrelevant. The proof is in the Losers Manifesto, almost word for word, what you'd hear from the mainstream left. Hell, it read like a transcript from the latest episode of the view. But you know, this might be the first assassin to be radicalized by smugness. Seriously, the shooter thought he was right on everything. And what unites all liberals is their lack of humility.

They just think they're right all the time. It seems harmless and annoying at first until their opinion becomes belief and the belief hardens into an ideology. And if you believed you helped create that ideology, then you're more desperate to protect it. Even more, without a higher power to curb this hubris, the dogma turns deadly.

After all, if you say Trump's a Nazi and you think you're always right, then why not do the right thing and kill the Nazi? And yet in the run-up to the dinner, it was still about press freedom being under threat. thanks to the evil, vile, orange man. But then reality shows up reminding us who's really getting shot at. Sorry, guys, it's not you, it's him.
