Now let's listen to the Al Smith dinner. A few weeks before Election Day, politicians attend a white-tie fundraiser for Catholic charities in New York. In presidential election years, the presidential candidates turn up. They make a few edgy 3, but usually self-deprecating remarks - that's what normally happens. NPR's Sam Sanders reports on what happened last night.
SAM SANDERS, BYLINE 4: Donald Trump spoke 5 before Clinton, and some of his jokes went over well.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
DONALD TRUMP: Oh, this one's going to get me in trouble.
SANDERS: With his wife - Trump joked about Melania Trump's speech at the Republican National Convention. Some parts of it were lifted from a speech given by the current first lady.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
TRUMP: Michelle Obama gives a speech, and everyone loves it. It's fantastic. They think she's absolutely great. My wife, Melania, gives the exact same speech...
(LAUGHTER)
TRUMP: ...And people get on her case.
SANDERS: But about halfway 6 through, Trump lost the room and began to draw boos.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
TRUMP: Hillary believes that it's vital to deceive the people by having one public policy...
UNIDENTIFIED PEOPLE: (Booing).
TRUMP: ...And a totally different policy in private.
SANDERS: And then there were more boos after Trump alluded 7 to leaked emails showing Clinton staffers disparaging 8 conservative Catholics.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
TRUMP: Here she is tonight, in public, pretending not to hate Catholics.
UNIDENTIFIED PEOPLE: (Booing).
SANDERS: Hillary Clinton smiled throughout, and when it was her turn, she hit her opponent pretty hard as well.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
HILLARY CLINTON: It's amazing I'm up here after Donald. I didn't think he'd be OK with a peaceful transition of power.
(LAUGHTER)
SANDERS: Clinton joked that Trump would grade the Statue of Liberty on its looks, rating her a four.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
CLINTON: Maybe a five if she loses the torch and tablet and changes her hair.
SANDERS: The room seemed to be more receptive of Clinton's zingers than Trump's, even when she compared Trump's health to the health of Vladimir Putin's horse - and even when she joked about the debate.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
CLINTON: Donald wanted me drug tested before last night's debate.
(LAUGHTER)
CLINTON: And look, I've got to tell you, I am so flattered that Donald thought I used some sort of performance enhancer.
(LAUGHTER)
CLINTON: Now, actually, I did. It's called preparation.
SANDERS: The dinner had one feature that this week's debate did not. Clinton and Trump actually shook hands last night. And when the emcee announced this to the crowd, there was applause.
