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

 

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.

“The other side’s got a lot of crazy endorsements. Swift, Eminem, Leo DiCaprio, Beyonce. Every day the Democratic party looks more and more like a P. Diddy party,” he continued, to the crowd’s appreciation.

“Oh, Okay. Okay, that’s what you guys want!”

He then pointed to a man in the audience and went with what seemed like an off-the-cuff “joke.”

“That’s cool, a Black guy with a thing on his head. What the hell is that, a lamp shade? Look at this guy! Oh, my goodness. Wow! I’m just kidding, that’s one of my buddies. We had a Halloween party last night. We had fun — we carved watermelons together. It was awesome!”

Hinchcliffe addressed the crowd’s murmurs.

“This is a groany little morning crowd, huh?”

Trump was scheduled to take the stage at 5 p.m.
