President Trump had a priceless reaction Friday night after a crew of journalists were honored at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner for their reporting on the commander-in-chief’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Trump smiled and laughed as the group of reporters from the Wall Street Journal were given the Katharine Graham Award for Courage and Accountability for their investigative report on a birthday card and drawing purportedly made by the president and given to the notorious sex criminal.
