Alfred E. Smith Memorial Dinner Presidential nominees Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump deliver remarks at the annual Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner in New York City.
I would have rather had a root canal than be there!

Ooh, Miss Didi, thanks for the live report. Make a lot of money!
I’m monitoring Twitter and don’t see the media outrage at Trump’s comments tonight that I thought I would. We’ll see what tomorrow morning brings. I’ll bet they were the ones booing him.
At first I thought trump was drifting over the line. But he must have had an inkling about what Hillary was going to say. She went over the line and not nearly as effectively. Melanie and Rudy were not amused.
Stop congratulating yourself, you didn't know nor understand what this dinner was, before tonight.
You should apologize to me, the rest of the people reading this thread, and then go watch other Al Smith dinners.
Bottom line .. Hillary gave as good as she got.
The only difference is Trump’s “give” was all truth.
My wife and I were watching (we are huge trump supporters) and we both thought he went over the line. It was not the place for that type of talk. But Hillary was also bad (thank God!) so should not be too much blowback from this. Plus if the media makes it a big deal, they will have to cover the Obama Muslim joke (which I can’t believe she said, even if true). Obama can not be happy about that! He must be pissed at her!
Interesting take. They probably thought Trump wouldn't have been able to contain himself and would have extemporaneously let a few comments fly about Bill. . and maybe Hillary.
Try to imagine Jesus Christ addressing a crowd of liberal Catholics and Jews.
Now that would be awkward. I think a bit of the voice of the Holy Spirit was heard tonight, the question being, will the nation hear it?
Kissinger wanted badly to speak to her.
He waited for several minutes on the row above her trying to get her attention, and then ended up walking all the way down to the end of that row and up her row to speak to her. Couldn't tell what they were saying but there was a minute or two of serious conversation with no smiling or laughing and then into small talk.
Excellent post.
These two faced pukes loved Donald and took his money gladly until he took on the beloved Harridan.
I have...it’s all phony and you better be watching your back and not be too friendly...all the hugs etc. are equally so...they just want to have photo shots or “be seen” with such and such...but it does work for the generally.
I recall a gathering such as this where I was the new face ....worked my way up the ladder so to speak...and one of the reasons I finally left that circle, it’s all money and business and it’s cut throat. When they give, when they donate it’s used as leverage.....it’s the game in play.
Notice how she made fun of the GOP, what a joke they are. The GOP has given me as much as they gave Donald.
Yes. Rudy knows personally how evil she is. She uses anyone, everyone, and everything to her advantage. He is going to blast her in his next interviews.
He probably did, I can barely understand him.
Have you ever been in the bowels of the Waldorf?
When we were doing a lot of PR in NYC, and hobnobbing, we ended up under the wing of Arno Schmidt, for a time. He was kind enough to give us an authentic *chef’s tour*.
I was only implying you should do it for the pure shock value.
Agreed.
