Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign lashed out late Thursday night after it was widely mocked at a charity dinner for vulnerable women and children that Harris refused to attend.
Trump lightly roasted Harris, Democrats, and some left-wing media outlets at the 79th Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner in New York City.
“Donald Trump struggled to read scripted notes written by his handlers, repeatedly complaining that he couldn’t use a teleprompter,” Harris’ campaign misleadingly claimed.
“He stumbled over his words and lashed out when the crowd wouldn’t laugh with him,” the statement falsely claimed. “The rare moments he was off script, he went on long incomprehensible rambles, reminding Americans how unstable he’s become.”
The campaign claimed that he made the event “all about himself,” failing to note that one of the points of the event is to tell self-deprecating jokes to lighten the mood in the room and bring down the political temperature across the country.
“He may refuse to release his medical records,” the statement falsely claimed, “but every day he makes it clear to the American people that he is not up to the job.”
By snubbing the Catholic charity dinner, Harris became the first presidential nominee to skip the dinner in 40 years.
