wiffleball 4,640 Posted October 21, 2016 Not only was this supposed to be funny (like the Press Corp Dinner), but it was in front of a bunch of church people. - And he STILL got booed. - Repeatedly. He wasn't even trying to be funny - it was just passive aggressive, unfunny vitriol. Pretty hard to get booed at a non-partisan charity dinner. Of course, the people who will chime in on this thread aren't smart enough or involved enough to even watch the event. - But they'll darn sure have an opinion. - As soon as Hannity and his cohorts tell them what it is.

wiffleball 4,640 Posted October 21, 2016 I have to admit, I had never heard of this dinner. It is seriously the fanciest dinner I've ever seen. Guys in tails, women in dinner gloves - you got to think there's some serious power and money going on there. I like the idea - both candidates come together to shake off the vitriol of the debates/campaign by slinging self-deprecating barbs at themselves. Just a shame Trump couldn't pull that off. I read that the Comedy Central guys were actually told by Donald what they could joke about or not. Not surprised if HE can't even tell jokes at his own expense. Honestly, I think the Archbishop / Cardinal (or whatever - didn't catch his title) did a pretty great job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,640 Posted October 21, 2016 Well, that was awkward. If you’ve ever squirmed through a mean-spirited, ill-advised wedding toast delivered by somebody’s inappropriate drunk uncle, then you’ll have some sense of the feeling in the room at New York’s Waldorf-Astoria hotel Thursday night, where Donald Trump and Hillary...

wiffleball 4,640 Posted October 21, 2016 ...And then the evening went off the rails. Dropping the pretense of humor, Trump began lobbing attack lines from his campaign rallies, calling Clinton “so corrupt – so corrupt – she was fired from the Watergate committee.” On the dais behind him, the eyes of dinner guests bulged and to his left, Clinton, who had been gamely playing along with a broad smile and laugh, froze. The crowd began booing, an almost unheard-of occurrence at these generally clubby dinners. Jimmy Carter found himself booed when he appeared with Ronald Reagan in 1980, but that was based on policy differences. Conservative Catholics who thought the evangelical Carter would be a fellow abortion opponent when he was elected in 1976 had lost faith in him after four years in the White House and were further angered by his White House conference on families, which they saw as threatening the definition and structure of traditional families. When Trump brought up WikiLeaks, the boos and hisses increased in volume and he stopped to acknowledge them. “That’s OK. I don’t know who they’re angry at,” he said, turning to Clinton. “You or I.” From the audience, someone hollered “You!” Undeterred, Trump continued, saying of Clinton: “Here she is now in public, pretending not to hate Catholics.” Nothing underscored the unprecedented nature of Trump’s performance than the stony face of Cardinal Dolan, who at one point during the GOP nominee’s remarks sat with his chin in his hand, and didn’t applaud even when Trump closed by praising the dinner’s charitable purpose.
