Former President Donald Trump described his recent rally at Madison Square Garden that was marred by racist remarks as a 'lovefest," a term he has previously used to refer to the January 6 Capitol riot. Speaking from his Mar-a-Lago resort, Trump said: "There's never been an event so beautiful," in reference to the Sunday night gathering in New York City. "The love in that room was breathtaking," he asserted.
"It was like a lovefest, an absolute lovefest. And it was my honor to be involved." However, the rally caused a backlash over crude and racist remarks made by several speakers, including insults directed at various minority groups such as Latinos, Black people, Jews and Palestinians, as well as sexist comments aimed at Vice President Kamala Harris and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton .
What did Tony Hinchcliffe say at Trump's MSG rally? Notably, comedian Tony Hinchcliffe's joke, in which he described Puerto Rico as a "floating island of garbage," drew significant criticism, especially considering the electoral importance of Puerto Ricans in battleground states like Pennsylvania. In a rare move, the Trump campaign distanced itself from Hinchcliffe's comments, although it did not condemn the other inflammatory remarks made during the event. Ángel Cintrón, president of Puerto Rico's Republican Party , labeled Hinchcliffe's routine as "disgraceful, ignorant, and totally reprehensible," asserting that such remarks do not reflect the values of conservatism.
