“Disrespectful,” “wtf,” “cringeworthy,” and “historically bad” were just some of the immediate responses on X to Vice President Kamala Harris’s taped video appearance at the Al Smith Dinner on Thursday.
Former President Donald Trump was the only presidential candidate to show up at the dinner. Harris was the first Democrat candidate to skip the dinner since 1984, raising the question of why she would skip a bipartisan event as she tries to frame herself as a unity candidate.
Harris opted to just send in a pre-recorded video that turned into a skit that received almost zero laughs from the audience.
The skit, which mocked Catholics, included a Saturday Night Live comedian to fill the video’s air time:
Someone Shouted “Jesus is Lord” at Kamala’s Rally last night and she said…
“Oh, I think you’re at the wrong rally… I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street.”
Candidates have traditionally given humorous speeches[13] poking fun at themselves and their opponents, making the event similar to a roast.

It's comedy gold they tried to frame her as competent in that video. Being spread eagle is not flying last I checked! She should have did her cackle that would have gotten some laughs at least.

You and I must have watched two different videos. I didn't see any mocking of Catholics or Catholicism.
Breitbart just makes # up.
