Borderline racist?
Try absolutely unequivocally batshit racist?
What the fuck; I don't expect much from this publisher but damn, come on.
6 hours of that. I don't think I could even stomach watching the clips/highlights from this one.
In his joke, Hinchcliffe, known as Kill Tony, said: "There’s a lot going on. I don’t know if you know this but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico."
US congresswoman Maria Elvira Salazar said she was "disgusted" by the "racist comment". She said on X that it did not "reflect the GOP values", referring to the Republican Party, and noted thousands of Puerto Ricans served in the military.
This is exactly the "GOP values", has she not listened to the hate coming out of the GOP for decades?
US Senator Rick Scott said: "The joke bombed for a reason. It's not funny and it's not true." He added that "Puerto Ricans are amazing people and amazing Americans".
Weird take when the GOP candidate has been spewing lies [many racist in nature] about anyone he sees not bending the knee.
"This joke does not reflect the views of President Trump or the campaign," spokesperson Danielle Alvarez said in a statement.
Funny how they pick a guy with a history of saying racist stuff as a "joke" and then try to distance Trump and his campaign from it when even Republicans got upset about it.
That's who they are
6 hours of racism? Everything really is bigger in America
Don't forget the stochastic terrorism/threats. That probably ate up at least an hour or two.
Ngl, Hitler 2.0 was not in my 2024 bingo card...
Given the past few years... it's on mine.
Filthy casual.
"Friends" lol
