Comedian Jim Gaffigan made headlines and unlikely conservative allies after he blasted Kamala Harris for no-showing the Al Smith dinner on Thursday night.
“You know, this event has been referred to as the Catholic Met Gala. Twenty-two percent of Americans identify as Catholic. Catholics will be a key demographic in every battleground state. I’m sorry, why is Vice President Harris not here?” the Gaffigan joked at the charity event.
“I mean, consider this, this is a room full of Catholics and Jews in New York City. This is a layup for the Democratic nominee,” Gaffigan said.
“In her defense, I mean she did find time to appear on The View, Howard Stern, Colbert, and the longtime staple of campaigning, the Call Her Daddy podcast,” he continued. “You know what I think it is? I think she doesn’t like me. Chuck, do I have bad breath?” he asked New York Senator Chuck Schumer.
Gaffigan even joked about the Biden family voting for Trump and Kamala being “installed” after Joe was thrown off the ticket.
“The Democrats have been telling us Trump’s reelection is a threat to democracy. In fact, they were so concerned of this threat, they staged a coup, ousted their democratically elected incumbent and installed Kamala Harris,” Gaffigan said.
“In other words, all her dreams have come true. It really makes me consider the power of prayer, right Cardinal? Sometimes prayers take three-and-half years and a George Clooney op-ed.”
