Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner, this theme was reinforced by an unlikely source: left-wing comedian Jim Gaffigan. called Trump in 2020 is a “fascist.”
Mr. Gaffigan intended to mock Mr. Trump, but he risked the ire of fellow leftists by similarly bashing Ms. Harris and questioning her decision to cancel the event. suggest She said she became the Democratic candidate through undemocratic means.
“Democrats have been telling us that Trump's re-election is a threat to our democracy,” Gaffigan said. “In fact, they were so concerned about this threat that they staged a coup, ousted the democratically elected incumbent and installed Kamala Harris.”
At the beginning of his speech, President Trump emphasized his gratitude for the dinner, which Harris declined to attend. Harris, along with her late father, frequently hosted events organized by the Archdiocese of New York to raise money for special needs children, foster children and low-income people. single mothers and other vulnerable people in the city;

President Trump referenced the governor's embarrassing hunting-themed photoshoot last weekend, joked that Harris was likely hunting with Walz, or recently spoke with Catholics about the Eucharist. The governor of Michigan, who shared a video that appears to be mocking the New York Times, mentioned that he “received communion from Gretchen Whitmer.”
President Trump cited an earlier statement from the banquet's host, Cardinal Timothy Dolan, who said the last major party candidate not to attend the banquet was Democratic candidate Walter F.

said“This event is being called the Catholic Met Gala. 22% of Americans identify as Catholic. Catholics will be a major demographic in any battleground state. Sorry, but why? Isn’t Vice President Harris here?”
“Governor Walz himself isn't here, but don't worry, he'll tell you he was.”
Trump sarcastically said Harris' laugh was “beautiful” and encouraged her husband, Doug Emhoff, to stay away from the nannies, but the event's organizers really wanted the vice president to accept the invitation. If so, he suggested, “I should have said this.'' funds were to be sent to her
rescue She would have been here with the looters and rioters in Minneapolis, no doubt. ”
Before criticizing some of Harris' allies, Trump suggested the country needed new leadership, noting:
We have a person in the White House who can barely speak, who can barely put two coherent sentences together, and who appears to have the intellectual capacity of a child. That's sad. This is a person who has nothing going on and no intelligence at all, but enough about Kamala Harris.
President Trump then singled out Los Morales Lockett's Democratic Party-backed group, White Dudes, to Harris, saying, “I'm not worried about them at all, because their wives and their wives' lovers are all private.'' All of those people are voting for me.” . ”
President Trump lambasted Harris' running mate after suggesting she was cuckolding a white man, saying, “Unfortunately, Governor Walz himself isn't here, but don't worry, he was.'' I would say,” he said.
Trump continued, “I said Democrats are crazy for saying men have periods.” “But then I met Tim Walz.”

Trump concluded his remarks by noting that New York City needs room to accommodate “a large group of illegal aliens coming from Texas.”
While Trump drew laughs from the audience, which included longtime critic Gaffigan and Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York, the Harris campaign tried to undermine Trump's speech.
Ammar Moussa, director of rapid response for the Harris campaign, said:
claimed In a jubilant statement, Trump “stumbled over his words and lashed out when the audience didn't laugh along with him. On rare occasions he went off script, speaking at incomprehensible lengths and giving the American people a sense of what he was.” “It reminded me of how unstable things have become. And of course.” He made everything about himself. ”
In a short video submitted to Al Smith's Dinner Video, Harris takes the stand and claims that the Catholic faith of the Knights of Columbus disqualifies him from serving as a judge and forces Catholic groups to serve as judges. He suggested he would never say anything negative about Catholics, despite previously suggesting he would introduce legislation aimed at doing so. engage in activities that violate religious beliefs;
After quoting a passage from the Gospel of Luke, Harris concluded the video with a renewed commitment to “reaching across the divide and seeking understanding and common ground.”
“As I watched that, I couldn't help but think about how my kids felt when I FaceTimed them to their piano recitals,” Gaffigan said in response to Harris' video. I understand.''
