The other thing about roasts is that they are supposed to be directed at the person being roasted, and they are usually good natured. Insofar as the WHC might be a "roast", it's supposed to roast the President, and there was nothing good natured about it.

It would be politically incorrect to roast the Anointed One.

The event has never been about roasting only the president. I honestly can't believe with everything going on that this is the topic you are most concerned about.
