        I think the point is so many honorees will not attend if he is there, unlike the golf

        Oh, what malarkey. He's afraid of more bad publicity when attendees and honorees refuse to attend with him. He has become a social pariah.

        "Political distraction" pretty much sums up the Trump presidency so far.

        Did he attend any event this year outside of his rallies or hosted in one of his properties?

        Bingo. He couldn't monetize the event so he didn't want to attend. He could have people booing him removed from his properties.

        The bully is a coward. Noted. Also, he wouldn't want to miss prime time on FoxNews.
