WATCH: Kamala Humiliated By Legendary Comedian At Al Smith Dinner She Refused To Attend: ‘Staged A Coup’

The comedian who so memorably skewered Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz with his mockery of the earnest midwesterner is back again, this time calling out Vice President Kamala Harris for repeatedly calling former President Donald Trump a “threat to democracy.”

Jim Gaffigan returned to Saturday Night Live this fall where he donned the role of Walz and received acclaim for his impersonation. Speaking at the Al Smith dinner as Trump looked on last night, Gaffigan took a clean shot at Harris, saying her claim rings hollow after Democrats “staged a coup” to place her on the ballot. “Democrats have been telling us that Trump’s reelection is a threat to democracy,” he told the crowd. “In fact they were so concerned of this threat, they staged a coup, ousted their democratically-elected incumbent, and installed Kamala Harris. In other words, all her dreams have come true.” As the appreciative audience applauded, Gaffigan turned to the Cardinal on his left. “It really makes you consider the power of prayer.”

President Trump headlined the night, which he had all to himself after Harris declined to attend and instead delivered brief remarks via a recorded video. The Catholic assortment of churchgoers and faith leaders was largely supportive during his remarks even as Trump insulted Harris’s heritage and intelligence. “Right now, we have someone in the White House who can barely talk, barely put together two coherent sentences, who seems to have the mental faculties of a child. There’s a person that has nothing going. No intelligence whatsoever,” Trump said, CNN reported. “But enough about Kamala Harris.”

If anyone were to follow Trump’s remarks and deliver a standout performance, it was Gaffigan. The emergence of “secret Trump voters,” including some in Walz’s own family, has put truth behind Gaffigan’s jests Thursday night. “The media has begun discussing the phenomena of ‘secret Trump voters’ — people who publicly say they’d never vote for Trump, but then when they go in the voting booth, they do. It’s a small group. They’re called the ‘Biden family,'” he joked.

Fellow dinner guests weren’t spared by Gaffigan or Trump, who began by acknowledging the Al Smith dinner is often an opportunity for politicians to be self-deprecating. “Nope,” Trump said after a pause. “I’ve got nothing.” Instead, he needled Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), seated to his left, over his support for transgender athletes. Later, he offered sympathy for New York Mayor Eric Adams who he suggested was charged with crimes by federal prosecutors over his criticism of President Joe Biden’s border policies. “You’re going to win, I think you’re going to win, I know you’re going to win, so good luck,” Trump told Adams. “Good luck. I don’t like what they do.”

There was no floor to Trump’s criticism, which veered into extremely personal areas at times. After mentioning Harris’s latest childcare policy proposal, Trump quipped that she will have a “nanny” problem if elected, a veiled reference to her husband’s affair with his children’s nanny during a previous marriage. When the topic of the “White Dudes for Harris” coalition came up, Trump joked that he was fine with losing their support. “Their wives and their wives’ lovers will be voting for me,” he said dryly.
