    The co-hosts of "The View" saw Donald Trump mention them during Thursday evening's Al Smith Dinner.

    The dinner is a white-tie fundraiser for Catholic charities that welcomes elected officials and comedians for a night of hilarity in the name of helping children. It typically allows political leaders to show off their comedic side, but Trump hasn't traditionally done well at the event. Kamala Harris did not attend .

    View co-host Joy Behar asked if the Catholic Church was "normalizing a guy who's already broken 11 of the Ten Commandments."

    Sunny Hostin, a devout Catholic, said she agreed it was.

    "I hate to break with tradition because it is a tradition, and it's a tradition to have presidential candidates come to this particular dinner," she began. "But sometimes there's a time to break from tradition. You can't have a felon, a liar, a serial cheater — you know, he had Melania next to him, his third wife, who he cheated with Stormy Daniels on when she was pregnant. I think he stands against everything and flies in the face of everything a Catholic holds dear ."

    Hostin accused Trump of not being "a faithful man."

    But it was his comments about "The View" that drew their mockery.

    In the second segment, the show played the clips of Trump attacking the co-hosts. Both Sunny Hostin and Ana Navarro said that, contrary to what Trump claims, they'd never met him and don't know him beyond knowing "of him."

    Behar joked that Hostin was "the only prosecutor he's never met."

    "He's losing it. You know what, isn't it such an enjoyable thing to live rent-free in his head?" asked Hostin. We live rent-free in this man's head!"

    Trump's former White House communications director, Alyssa Farah Griffin, commented it was a "scary place" to be.

    She also said that Trump claimed in a podcast several months ago that he never knew her, despite her working for him. Now, he's claiming he does know her.

    "Which gets back to my point: I think he's slowing down," she said.

    The 2020 event welcomed both Trump and President Joe Biden, but virtually . In 2016, Trump was regarded to have "bombed" in his speech at the event, even drawing boos at one point, NPR reported at the time.

    Before voting, ask yourself this: Will Trump give you a tax cut? help you buy your first home? expand Medicare to include vision, dental and elder care? protect your right to overtime pay? fund social security so it doesn't run out of money? give a $5,000 child tax credit? protect women’s and minorities right to vote? sign the bi-partisan border bill that Trump killed? enshrine Roe v Wade into the Constitution? protect the environment? make child care more affordable? follow the Constitution? Harris will do ALL OF THIS, AND MORE!
