I'm well aware. They're not going to be impacted at this point in the race by something a comedian said at a rally about Puerto Ricans. Hell, Latinos talk more **** about each other and which country they're from than most people realize.

Exactly! Not every Latino likes Puerto Ricans or every other Latino group.

I know white people are proclaimed as the most racist people ever but they probably don't have Latino friends.

Definitely don't let the liberals know about latino self deprecating humor or the mean words that aren't friendly to lgbt

I hate the MSM. This is absolutely nothing, but they blow it up in order to divide. Wake up people.

He's a openly gay comedian speaking at a Trump rally that oh by the way is embedded deep into YouTube and TikTok algorithms. He produces a metric ton of short content from his platforms and he'll get picked up from that. It reaches a ton of youth and low pro voters in a way George Lopez never will. Not only that but the it will reach will be exactly the demos thag Trump wants to turn out. Best joke? No, but you're looking at a tiny bit of it that will be swallowed by the rest of his positive impact.



He's not gay


Tony is pretty gay though.

NSFW language.

Anybody who has seen Kill Tony knows you don't have this man speak at such a highly publicized rally a week before the election.

Many of our new Latino voters in the seven swing states are Puerto Rican.

Many Latinos in the Blue Wall that are trending Republican/Trump are Puerto Rican.

The joke doesn't even make sense. Puerto Rico is a billion times better than Haiti (a country with one of the highest violent crime rates in the world that is being run by a warlord cannibal named Barbeque)

The amount of Puerto Ricans in the seven swing states is shocking when you look at some of these breakdowns. Many Puerto Ricans in Pennsylvania. These Puerto Ricans have been trending Republican in the polls after being Democrat for a long time. Republicans/Trump need to win one of PA/Wisconsin/Michigan.

The Trump campaign and Trump should immediately disavow Tony Hinchcliffe.

The Democrat controlled media is going to have a field day with this.
The Dem Media isn't the problem. The problem is Republicans that fall in the trap of talking about the narrative created by it instead of ignoring it. For instance I saw Rick Scott rushing out to denounce it. All that does is fuel the story and make it the story. It wasn't something Trump said yet by doing this it allows the Dems to make THAT the story instead of the actual event. Dems don't play fair, it's not like they care when other Dems do crazy and outrageous stuff. They simply ignore it. Republicans need to play by the same rules.

you mean to tell me a comedian and host of the biggest online comedy show, where outrageous, dark and crude humor is prevalent, told a harsh nationality-based joke?

the irony is palpable… this is one of the main reasons why people hate democrats

Tony is a HUGE online fixture with his Kill Tony show in Austin; he's an extremely popular, whitty, gay man stumping for Trump, so he & other 'historical Dems' like Bobby Jr., Musk, & Tulsi might be the bandwagon appeal needed for a disenfranchised Liberal/ Democrat/ CM to pull the lever for The Donald!!

What's funny to me is how he knew his JOKE missed and wasn't received well.

That means the very attempt to associate with Trump and Trump supporters is beyond weak

The latino Tony followers may actually show up to vote Trump now because of this joke.

Some more highlights from Tony Hinchcliffe. Outside of Puerto Rico, he also made jokes about migrants, Catholic Latinos, Black people, and Jewish people. You might the jokes were funny or aren't a big deal because he's a comedian. But I can't imagine this does anything to help Trump with anyone that wasn't voting for him already.

Not a great idea at all. Of course, it is the main story tonight at CNN:

there are NO undecided at this point. they were either already voting Trump or Harris before this event, and they are going to vote either Trump or Harris after this.


How sure are you of that though? 100% sure? Enough to risk the presidency on it? Why even take that chance if you are Trump?

You don't like jokes. Got it

Eta: he's not my cup of tea but I thought his redneck accent was funny and poking fun at me like a JOKE would logically do

Hell, most Puerto Ricans don't like Puerto Ricans.

I don't know, if the msm couldn't get traction with Trump talkin about Arnold's junk , I don't think it's a big deal.

I typically don't like jokes that punch down at others or make fun of people's religion, ethnicity, etc.

i am 100% certain there are no true undecided at this point. Any claiming to be at this point just wants attention.

but let's play devil's advocate here.

just ballparking it here... but more than half the country has already voted at this point. if there were to be any real impact from this it will be significantly muted
Half the country doesn't matter though. just the voters in a handful of swing states.

Right now Republicans are courting Jewish voters in PA and a Jewish Republican PAC is spending 15 million on ad across swing states. Obviously both campaigns think there are still swing voters to be had.

No reason to not court the Jewish vote. One side supports Israel and the other supports Palestine

Lol, saying i don't find racist or religious bigotry jokes funny means I don't have a spine or I am virtue signaling.

I think a lot of people outside of the politics board probably feel the same way.

Did you find those jokes I linked funny?

Then why trot out a comedian that makes fun of Jewish people using a racist stereotype that's been around since the middle ages?

Is that supposed to help Republicans court the Jewish vote?
