I know Al Smith is tradition and for charity or whatever, but it was always cringe, and sitting their frowning isn't the way to handle this moment. Either don't attend at all or at least leave the room when he's speaking. He is not merely an unpleasant dinner guest, he literally tried to kill you.

Completely agree. There should have been a massive boycott. Donate but boycott.

The Al Smith dinner is a pageant of bipartisan comity that is no longer operative *because of Trump*. He ruined the illusion that there's any greater good both parties can set aside their differences for. Pretending otherwise is just a ritual of submission to his norms-don't-apply-to-me act.

In the end, they all belong to the same club. Anyone attending such an event is scum. If a sinkhole opened up beneath that room, only the waiters and technicians would be innocent victims. Want to donate to charity? Do it. No need to make a production out of it.

It also raises shockingly little for charity considering the networth of the folks involved.
