    Trump said during his remarks, he was one of the first people to donate to Schumer's first political campaign.

      I didn't watch, but supposedly this was said.

      “During the first and only debate, President Trump talked about migrants taking cats and eating them. If you’re keeping track at home, this is the second time grabbing a kitty has been part of a campaign issue.”

      "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        The comedian host delivered that line. Melania laughed.

          https://tribune.com.pk/story/2503780/kamala-harris-reportedly-berates-campaign-manager-for-advising-against-attending-al-smith-dinner

          Vice President Kamala Harris reportedly erupted in a furious tirade against her campaign manager, Julie Chávez, this morning.
          According to a source cited by X (formerly Twitter) user @joma_gc, Harris angrily berated Chávez for over 30 minutes during a phone call. Chávez had advised Harris not to attend the Al Smith Dinner, concerned that associating with Catholic figures might alienate LGBTQ and pro-abortion voters.
          Instead, Chávez suggested Harris send a pre-recorded video message to the 79th Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner, a bipartisan event where presidential candidates traditionally attend in person. By skipping the dinner, Harris became the first nominee to miss the event in 40 years.
          Former President Donald Trump, who attended the dinner as the featured speaker, seized the opportunity to mock Harris for her absence, increasing the pressure on her campaign.
          During the heated exchange, Harris allegedly called Chávez "inept," "horrible at your f-ing job," and blamed her for potentially jeopardizing the campaign. Chávez, reportedly in tears, faced harsh criticism as Harris expressed frustration over what she described as “stupid advice.”
          Julie Chávez Rodriguez, 46, is Harris' campaign manager, having transitioned from her role in President Joe Biden’s 2024 re-election campaign.

            Par for the course.

              We all get bad advice every day. Following that advice is a choice for which we alone are responsible. It was a poor decision.

                Berating her staff is not a poor decision. It's a habit.

                    And this woman still has a job

                    A pretty good indication that Ms. Harris is not up to being in charge

                      Boy, I bet Chavez will be a much more inspired and diligent advisor, now.
