Puerto Ricans Explain & Defend Comedian’s “Floating Island of Garbage” Joke at New York Rally





Oct 29, 2024
comedian Tony Hinchcliffe at a Donald Trump rally called Puerto Rico a "floating island of garbage", which brought accusations of racism.
 
Apparently, George Lopez made a joke at Harris rally about "ALL MEXICANS BEING THIEVES!"

Lol - that's even worse than the island of garbage joke!




Harris Rally Hate: Speaker Mocks Mexican Migrants As Thieves



At a recent rally in Phoenix, George Lopez made headlines with a controversial joke.
He appeared alongside Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who is running as Kamala Harris’s vice-presidential candidate.
Lopez’s joke involved a reference to Mexicans stealing, which stirred reactions online.








Nobody's attributing the joke to Harris. or, Walz!
Why should we attribute it to her?

As with all groups of people, a small amount of them end up being MAGAts. This is totally predictable and expected. This is a very, very small minority of Latino's who were voting for Trump anyway.
 



 
Read the comments! :ROFLMAO:


The speech is the kinda you just wanna skip! 😁










is this the same guy that had his wife donate a kidney to him and then divorced her a couple years later?



George Lopez really made a joke about Mexicans stealing the border wall materials and wonders why we need a wall. That’s levels of genius that only liberals mouth breathers would follow.


Yeah it's okay for him to make fun of Mexicans but it's not okay for the comedian at Trump's rally to crack jokes yeah the hypocrisy is showing


I’m sure you did meet her, At a P Diddy party


What a loser. They must have dirt on him.


Double standards, you can talk about Mexicans at her rally but when a comedian at Trump rally does it is the end of the world!

This is likely the worst Trump has seen since the Access Hollywood "Grab em by the *****" comment. I'll bet he never apologizes for this one. It's almost as if he's trying to lose.
 
Puerto Ricans have a sense of humor contrary to the belief of Democrats,

Trump tells MAGA that America is a shithole and sucks and y'all clap, agree, and beg for more.
If a Democrat had said that, MAGA would be screaming for the democrat to be exiled from the country.

He was funnier than Trumps comedian. But he made the same kind of joke.
 
Just to drop an anecdote, last time I renewed by passport the guy that interviewed me was Puerto Rican. I had been stationed there when I was in the service and commented how much I enjoyed being there. His comment was that, while it was a great place, it was so corrupt that he would never go back.

In the 90s, when I was stationed there, I had the opportunity to work with a certain division of the Puerto Rican police. They spent most of their time dealing with issues in public housing projects in Rio Piedras, rooting out Dominican criminals that had come there and chasing down people that were cutting gold to sell to tourists. They also busted a local police chief that was found to have so much cash stashed in barrels in his back yard that we weighed it instead of counted it. It's a beautiful island in most places but, at least at that time, the corruption was everywhere. Would I ever call it an island of garbage? Heck no, but every joke has an element of truth to it.
 
Well for someone running for President of the United States, they probably should vet their content to make sure there aren't racist jokes because a candidate probably wouldn't want those optics.

Except for “Kegger gone awry!”

Do you understand the difference between a self deprecating joke aimed at your own ethnicity versus roasting other races, ethnicities, and religions?
 
Why do y’all make racist jokes then pretend the usual backlash is surprising? Like y’all would have loved black face.
It's a poor look for someone running for President as well. Demonstrates poor decision making.

Who is “y’all” and have you ever heard Democrat rhetoric?

You would think. But Trump is racist. He doesn't care because he knows it appeals to a vast majority of his voters.

Even worse than the island of garbage joke? Yeah, go ahead and believe that like you believe Trump won the 2020 election. You MAGAs are hilarious.

Likewise you can show them speakers yelling about how Latinos "c*m" inside (they don't pull out!) and yet their own platform wants to eliminate access to birth control. Make it make sense to me please.
 
The 2024 election will not turn on bad jokes.

This thread is a joke.
