    Trump faces friends and foes at Al Smith dinner as Harris slams his ‘gaslighting’ at Wisconsin rally: Live

    Donald Trump found himself confronted by a collection of friends and foes as he attended the prestigious Al Smith Memorial Dinner in New York City on Thursday evening, with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and New York Attorney General Letitia James among his enemies in attendance.

    Accompanied by his wife Melania Trump and wearing black tie, the Republican presidential nominee was roasted by host Jim Gaffigan before delivering the Catholic charity gala’s keynote speech, in which he derided election rival Kamala Harris , former president Barack Obama and Schumer and commiserated with city mayor Eric Adams on his recent indictment.

    Trump complained about Harris’s absense from the gathering, saying he missed her “beautiful” but “crazy” laugh but the Vice President did send in a short comedic video in lieu of appearing, featuring comic Molly Shannon.

    Harris spent her evening rallying supporters in Green Bay, Wisconsin , remarking: “When you listen to Donald Trump talk, it becomes increasingly clear, he has no idea what he’s talking about.”

    She also declared that “the American people are exhausted with his gaslighting” and sent two MAGA activists out when they heckled her.

    That crazy ass drop in by Kamaltoe in video appearance for the Al Smith Dinner was so crazy, and on top of it, she once again had to use a teleprompter! She can never speak off the cuff because she's stupid 🤣
