NEW YORK — Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump used his remarks at a Catholic charity banquet here on Thursday to skewer prominent Democrats, often in off-color terms. He mispronounced Vice President Kamala Harris’s name and said she had “no intelligence whatsoever.” He made fun of her husband, Doug Emhoff, for an affair he acknowledged during a previous marriage. He questioned the manhood of Harris’s running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, and Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.), at the same time belittling transgender people. Although Kamala Harris did not attend the Al Smith charity dinner in person on Thursday, she did record a video message for the event—one that was quickly interrupted by Molly Shannon , playing her famous Saturday Night Live recurring character Mary Katherine Gallagher.
