Trump NYC Rally Speaker Jokes About Black People 'Carving Watermelons' and Puerto Rico Being 'A Floating Pile of Garbage

Oct 27th, 2024, 4:19 pm


Tony Hinchcliffe, known for his "roast" brand of comedy, took aim at Latinos and Black people attending the Donald Trump rally at New York's Madison Square Garden on Sunday to mixed reviews from the audience

"Where are my proud Latinos at tonight?" Hinchcliffe asked to cheers from the audience. "You guys see what I mean? It's wide open; there's so many of them," he said, referring to the Texas border with Mexico. Laughs were scattered with groans from the audience as he continued.

"Believe it or not, people, I welcome migrants to the United States of America with open arms. And by open arms, I mean like this," he quipped while waving his hands in front of him and mouthing, "No, go back." "It's wild. And these Latinos, they love making babies, too, just know that. They do, they do. There's no pulling out. They don't do that. They come inside, just like they did to our country."

Hinchcliffe let out a loud, "Ha, ha, ha, ha!" after the sparse laughs from the crowd died down. "Republicans are the party with the good sense of humor. I don't know if you guys know this, but there is literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it's called Puerto Rico?" As the crowd murmured, Hinchcliffe nodded his head, "Okay, all right. It's Okay," he said.

They are doing a full blown "Hatenanny" in there, George Lincoln Rockwell (original head of the American Nazi Party) style.



(https://images.socialwelfare.library.vcu.edu/items/show/261)

As a sidenote - there was a sequel to the original (1977) "Roots" miniseries called "Roots: The Next Generations" (1979), which had a fascinating run through history, post-Civil War and up to the 1970s. There was a scene where Alex Haley (played by the now-departed James Earl Jones), then a writer for Playboy Magazine, interviewed American Nazi Party head George Lincoln Rockwell (played by Marlon Brando in his one and only dramatic television appearance, garnering him his one and only Emmy award) -



There was mention in the interview of the hatenannys (a take-off on the "hootenanny" folk dancing and musical events) that the ANP would host where they would sing racist and antisemitic songs. And as I just found out, they even had a record label that recorded and sold records of those songs.

I ,mean, the orange clown might as well as give up the entire state as a LOSS.

His minions will lose that state bigly, He would have had more success in yet another court case in the state of New York.

He is damaging the GOP brand so much that I don't know if they will ever recover from it. It might take 20 or 30 years at the least to even begin to dig out from the crap pile and heap he is leaving in his ever expanding wake.

It is pure hate, done poorly. This comes on the heels of the Trump/Rogan thing where the subject of Anderson Cooper came up and Trump kept calling him Allison Cooper. Homophobia done poorly. Maybe it was a rehearsal for Madison Square Garden?

White Republicans like POTUS William McKinley didn't think Puerto Rico was a "floating pile of garbage" when he had it invaded on 25 July 1898 and kept it after the Spanish-American War.
