President Trump may yet still go to the White House Correspondents' Association dinner, but Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said 'no decision has been made' yet on the April affair.

Earlier, Huckabee Sanders responded 'yes' when asked directly about whether Trump would attend the dinner.

Only after DailyMail.com broke the story did she revise her statement, saying, 'really sorry, totally misread your email.'

'No decision has been made on WHCA dinner. We confirmed Gridiron only,' she said.

Last year, during his first year in office, Trump skipped both dinners, as they're both hosted by journalistic institutions and he was warring with the so-called 'fake news.'

On Monday, the Gridiron Club announced that Trump would be in attendance at the club's 133rd Anniversary Spring Dinner, slated for March 3.

'Since its founding in 1885, the Gridiron Club has had a standing invitation to the President of the United States to attend our annual dinner, and President Trump is continuing a tradition dating back to our start,' the club said in a statement.

The Gridiron dinner is a rare white-tie dinner in D.C. and features skits and musical acts featuring politicians and reporters.

Much of the night is off the record, though not the president's remarks.

The annual White House Correspondents' Dinner is a much larger affair, with the entirety of the event, including the red carpet, broadcast on C-SPAN.

The dinner, which is put on by the White House Correspondents' Association, raises money for journalism scholarships and is supposed to be a toast to the First Amendment.

During the Obama years it attracted a who's who from Hollywood, from the Kardashians to Lindsay Lohan, as well as more traditional stars like Scarlett Johansson and Sean Penn.

A number of parties and brunches are also held the same weekend as the dinner, often sponsored by tech giants like Google or trendy web properties, such as Funny or Die.

News outlets, including Vanity Fair and the New Yorker, cancelled their annual WHCD parties last year even before Trump acknowledged that he wasn't coming.

This year's dinner is scheduled for Saturday, April 28.

After DailyMail.com's back-and-forth with the press secretary, White House Correspondents' Association President Margaret Talev made clear the invitation to Trump, and to Vice President Mike Pence, was on the table.

'On April 28, we will gather as we have for decades to celebrate the First Amendment, some of the best political and investigative reporting in the country and student journalists who embody the best of our ideals,' Talev said. 'Each year the sitting US president and vice president are welcome to join us to celebrate free speech and the importance of an independent news media.'

Last year, the president announced his intentions to skip the fete via Twitter.

'I will not be attending the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner this year,' Trump wrote. 'Please wish everyone well and have a great evening!'

Trump's snub was the first time a sitting president missed the dinner since President Ronald Reagan in 1981, who couldn't attend because he was in recovery from being shot.

Reagan, recovering from his wounds at Camp David, still phoned into the dinner.

Private citizen Trump had attended the dinner multiple times, and was famously roasted by President Obama, and then by comedian Seth Meyers, in 2011, when he was contemplating running against Obama for the White House the next year.

Three days before that year's dinner, Obama had publicly released his long-form birth certificate, in part thanks to Trump's vocal backing of the 'birther' movement.

'Birthers' questioned whether the Hawaiian-born Obama was born in the United States.

Onstage that evening, Obama first jokingly played a scene from his 'birth video,' and then rolled the opening few minutes of Disney's 'The Lion King.'

'I know he's taken some flak lately, but no one is prouder to put this birth certificate matter to rest than "The Donald,"' Obama said, calling out to Trump, who was sitting at the Washington Post's table, near the center of the Washington Hilton ballroom, where the dinner is always held.

'And that's because he can finally get back to focusing on the issues that matter, like: Did we fake the moon landing? What really happened in Roswell? And where are Biggie and Tupac?' the president continued, listing a number of other conspiracy theories.

Obama also mocked Trump's television show, 'The Apprentice.'

'For example, on a recent episode of "Celebrity Apprentice," at the steakhouse, the men's cooking team did not impress the men from Omaha Steaks,' Obama began.

'And there was lots of blame to go around, but you, Mr. Trump, recognized that the real problem was a lack of leadership,' the president continued.

'And so ultimately you didn't blame Lil Jon or Meatloaf, you fired Gary Busey,' Obama said.

'These are the kinds of decisions that keep me up at night. Well handled, sir, well handled,' the Democrat said.

Obama also put up an illustration of what he thought a Trump White House would look like, complete with three extra stories and a neon marquee, since the real estate investor would clearly add a casino, hotel and a golf course to the 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue property.

'Say what you will about Mr. Trump, he certainly would bring some change to the White House,' Obama chuckled, as the image flashed.

Roger Stone, one of Trump's longtime political advisers, said he believed this was the moment the now-president was inspired to run for the office.

'I think that is the night that he resolves to run for president,' Stone told journalist Michael Isikoff for the film 'The Choice 2016.'

'I think that he is kind of motivated by it. "Maybe I'll just run. Maybe I'll show them all,"' Stone said, channeling Trump.

Trump certainly didn't run away from the dinner scared, returning again, with the future first lady Melania Trump at his side, in 2015, two months before he announced his White House bid.
