this whole campaign has been. Uptight, angry old white many stirring up anger and resentment and damn he looks the part here in the pic! And then there's Hillary, confident, smiling and at ease among fellow humans.

Thanks for posting this, it really is worth a thousand words.

He doesn't understand why they don't have at least equal respect among the movers and shakers. He only knows to resent the fact that they have no regard for him.

I would wager that Hillary was aware of his miserable, glowering presence. It had to feel pretty good.

Cardinal Dolan seemed to enjoy her company a lot more than the national embarrassment's.

They seem to have a very comfortable interaction. The Trumps were like holograms.

You're correct, the Trumps didn't seem to be happy to be there.

Money (maybe just debt) but no class. He doesn't know where to buy class, since it isn't for sale, and it wouldn't fit if he could.

Yes...and the sting is even more painful because Trump is in a room among the elites of NYC! NYC...his place! If he had been an honest, decent, wealthy businessman from NYC instead of the scumbag he is from NYC, he would have been enveloped with love from all those attending!

Lawrence O'Donnell slammed Trump with the idiotic child tantrum style politics by admitting Trump would never be invited to gatherings like this. Oh snap.... he's jealous Hillary can walk in and out of functions like this with ease and not a moment of looking uncomfortable. Seems the "elite' of NY can't stand the son of a bitch.

is that Trump looks like he may have serious health problems. He definitely looks like he's in real pain. I surehope he doesn't have the sniffles again. In contrast, Hillary looks energetic and vivacious. I hope he made it to the car all right after the dinner. Maybe he forgot to take his "performance enhancing medication" before the event.

I don't think it's pain. I think it is just hate.

I love it!!

down... savage as much civility and respect for our democratic process as he can in the death throes of his political suicide.

Trump was applauding !??

The Cardinal held the chair for Hillary. She made quite an impression with the audience - with her contrast to Mr Trump.

Maybe she can bring this country together?

Just not a good one.

...or display his typical blather and bullshit. I think he actually could have somewhat redeemed himself, but instead, went for his typical overbearing bully, which did NOT play well. I suspect tRump always felt like he didn't quite fit in with NYC's old money, and that may have driven some of his past brash bravado, but now, the old money is quite aware tRump does not fit in with them. tRump just proved to a roomful of the wrong people what a classless vulgarian he truly is. I suspect the tRump family is going to discover many doors are no longer open to them as they previously were. I suspect there will definitely be an element of shunning.

If looks could kill ....

One for the history books.

Oblivious to the fact that most of the people on the dais looked like they wanted to throttle him. Even if he wasn't such a nasty a-hole, his extreme self-involvement makes him a complete bore.

Did he make even a small gesture to compliment the work of the charity? That's standard for speakers at these fundraising events (and a no brainer).

Possibly I was distracted by Maria Bartiromo's continual texting and dangly earrings.

In any case, talking warmly about Al Smith being nominated by the Democratic Party ("my party" as she put it) to be the first Roman Catholic to get the presidential nom -- that was Hillary.

Discussing the crapload of anti-Catholic bigotry that went on display (the Holland Tunnel was a Papist plot to give the Pope access to ruling America once Smith was elected, among other juicy tidbits), that was left to Hillary to subtly indicate that mindless bigotry is nothing new.

Noting the multi-ethnic elites of New York gathering in goodhearted unity to support the work of Catholic Charities -- well, that was Hillary draining the poison out of the room.

On consideration, she could have completely ignored Trump instead of giving him a few quick jabs. He had already wrecked the entire occasion -- and by the time she had finished her piece, everyone in the audience was crystal clear about who was really on their side, and who was the barbarian growling and beating his chest.

He looks awfully thin...

"I could punch her right now. Who's looking?"

It sums everything up perfectly.

when Obama roasted him during the correspondent's dinner.

I hope no one is underestimating him. He's wounded. He's angry.

He has a lot of people who love him, who believe everything he says, and who are quite willing to follow him over the cliff.

Poor Donald, he wanted to be King. He wanted the state dinners. He wanted to be able to grab whatever pussy he wanted, when he wanted it.

Now he's facing the prospect of losing everything.

He's dangerous. Make no mistake.

she talked about the anti-Catholic discrimination that Al Smith endured during his presidential run. Something aimed directly at Trump's bigotry without ever mentioning Trump. And something not lost on that crowd.

Wanna bet no one but Trump said a word? He had to know how badly he blew it.

One thing for sure. He drives me to help the Hillary For America campaign effort.

He's all the motivation I need to never leave before the daily work is done.

....wrecked the whole intent of the event.

The rage is barely concealed at all. But, he fades into the background, compared to Hillary. So he will fade in the election. Even Melania can't compete in that photo. Hillary is the star.

I don't know what happened to Rudy during this election, But slowly and surely hes just lost it. Hes gone from the famous 9-11 mayor to a irrelevant, angry, spiteful person.
