Trump Blasts ‘Anti-Catholic’ Kamala For Snubbing Al Smith Dinner

Former President Donald Trump slammed Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday for skipping the Al Smith dinner in New York City in October, saying that she is “anti-Catholic.”

The annual event is a Catholic fundraiser that, during presidential election cycles, features the nominees of both of America’s two major political parties who engage in some self-deprecating humor and some light roasting of their opponent.

“It will be an honor to attend the SOLD OUT 79th ANNUAL AL SMITH DINNER on October 17th in New York,” Trump posted on social media. “It will be great to see so many wonderful people there, including Cardinal Timothy M. Dolan. We know the Spirit of Al Smith, the first Catholic Nominee of a Major Party, and John F. Kennedy, the FIRST Catholic President, will be in the room with us that night.”

Harris’ campaign said that she will be the first the candidate in many decades to skip the event because she would rather on the campaign trail. Harris, who has criticism for her awkward over-the-top laughing and her inability to take criticism, has taken numerous “anti-Catholic” actions, Trump said in his post.

“It’s sad, but not surprising, that Kamala has decided not to attend,” he said. “I don’t know what she has against our Catholic friends, but it must be a lot, because she certainly hasn’t been very nice to them, in fact, Catholics are literally being persecuted by this Administration.”

“Any Catholic that votes for Comrade Kamala Harris should have their head examined,” he continued. “In addition to the Democrats’ Cruel War on The Little Sisters of the Poor, Kamala led the way on the UNCONSCIONABLE and UNCONSTITUTIONAL ATTACKS on The Knights of Columbus that amounted to a RELIGIOUS TEST (Very anti-Catholic!) for Justices on the Supreme Court. Also, who can forget the flagrant, in-your-face ‘TRANSGENDER DAY OF VISIBILITY’ Kamala and Biden hosted at the White House on Easter Sunday (of all days!). Regardless, I will see everyone on October 17th, and we will have a GREAT night for Catholic Charities. It’s sad that Kamala doesn’t care about these good works, but with her History of anti-Catholic actions, she would have a hard time anyway!”
