@uncutrepublicusa: "Hillary accidentally bumped into me and said, 'Pardon me.'" 😂 The day after one of the toughest presidential debates in modern history, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton found themselves sitting just a few feet apart at the annual Al Smith Dinner—a charity event where presidential candidates traditionally set politics aside for one evening of humor. Trump opened by saying that despite all the heated exchanges from the debate, they had shown they could still be civil to one another. Then came the setup. Trump joked that Hillary accidentally bumped into him before the dinner and politely said, "Pardon me." His response? "Let's talk about that after I get into office." The joke played on the double meaning of the word "pardon", referencing the presidential power to grant pardons while drawing laughter from an audience that included politicians, journalists, and public figures from both parties. It quickly became one of the most replayed jokes from the 2016 campaign and remains one of Trump's best-known Al Smith Dinner moments. #DonaldTrump #HillaryClinton #AlSmithDinner #Election2016 #Politics
