Last night there was somewhat of a ritualistic dinner held.
It was the Al Smith dinner, a white-tie affair, and a ritual that Presidential candidates, very late in the game, have usually taken part in. This year was no different, with both Hillary and Trump sporting their white-tie best.
But this is not your usual sort of passe' thing. No, it's a benefit, and as are many benefits in New York it was stuffed with priestly types and an extraordinary price tag -- but, as is frequently the case when there are so many with a priestly bent headlining the event the money actually goes to a decent cause -- in this case Catholic Charities. And, I might add, rumors are that they raised a record amount. Bravo.
This dinner is in fact a roast, and The Donald went first. He served up a menu that began with some self-deprecating humor, as is the usual fare. But then, after getting the crowd nice and warm, with chuckles and even roars of approval, he dropped the hammer:
"Hillary is so corrupt -- She got kicked off the Watergate Commission. How corrupt do you have to be to get kicked off the Watergate Commission?"
It didn't end there, and there were boos. Of course there were boos: Trump was in a hard-left, hard-Democrat audience.

It is very sad that all the pro-abortion muckety-mucks were being such good Pharisees at the Catholic dinner.
God is shaking his head.
They sure enjoyed Hillary's skewering of Trump though! Lots of hearty laughs at his expense.
we Catholics should be thankful Trump was there. They brought in a record amount of money to Catholic Charities.
Ah, yes. Catholic Charities. Totally on board and on the take from the turd world Islamic rapeugee importation program.
And Trump truly entered a lion’s den.
The fact that this group has largely been supporting Hillary is a conviction in itself for the group and openly shows the corruption behind the organization. Why people can not see that leaves me speechless after this point.
But we didn’t hear helldabama’s side of the roast. I’m sure the lib crowd went bonkers when it was her turn. As you know, she has such a charming witty personality. Just recall the video of her all dressed in blue acting like she was having a siezure with her head jerking around? Hill-arious. And the sycophants standing there yukking it up. Or when she made the SS detail laugh by pretending to fall down getting in to the SUV. A riot I tell ya. Or not.
God is exposing the hypocrites in the Catholic Church who are reserved for hell.
When your taking flak you’re over the target!
It takes a village...just ask Haiti where Hillary has taken a lot of villages. Not so much funny as brutally truthful and tragic. The Donald took the truth to the scribes and Pharisees, and they didn’t like it.
Agree. The Catholic Charities/Refugee Importation connection rarely gets mentioned.
You mean like this?!!
Hillary wore the planned parenthood colored dress (nightgown) to a “Catholic charity” event. I am beyond disgusted with the hypocrisy level of highly placed liberal democrat “Catholics”. This choice of dress color is not coincidence.
I am headed to our perpetual adoration chapel for reparation prayer today.
I posted this on another thread so sorry if redundant.
Catholic Charities in New York has become an arm of the liberal democrat machine. In the Albany Diocese we can thank Hubbard.
I point all this out as a strong faithful Catholic.
Trump HAS to win.
The only thing Hillary had going for her was that her husband wasn’t there.
Good article!
The last paragraph nails it. Ho Trump!!!
I wonder how many of these people even knew what Trump was talking about. If they rely on the MSM they live in a different world and probably don’t even know that Hillary wants her regime to force an “Arab Spring” alteration of Catholic theology.
They used to talk about “two Americas” - the haves and the have-nots. That may be true, but what they have or don’t have is factual knowledge. Many, many people live in the alternate reality staged by the Propaganda Ministry.
This analysis is excellent. Every Catholic should read it, if not every American.
