i don't trust joe rogan
he set Trump with that comedian knowing the comedian in the past made racial slurs and was dropped by his agent because of it
Trump's people should have vetted the guy prior to the msg rally
yes, i know all about hillary's comments about blacks
In September 2020, Hinchcliffe announced that he would relocate to Austin, Texas, to join Joe Rogan and Brian Redban.[24] The Kill Tony podcast relocated to Antone's Nightclub in downtown Austin. The show relocated to Vulcan Gas Company on 6th Street in May 2021. Due to an incident that month with a racist slur, his agency WME released him as a client and Antone's announced that it would no longer work with Hinchcliffe or Kill Tony.[25][26][27] As of 2023, the show is hosted at Joe Rogan's Austin-based comedy club Comedy Mothership.
During a stand-up set in May 2021, Hinchcliffe was videotaped insulting Peng Dang, an Asian American comedian who had introduced Hinchcliffe after performing the previous set at Vulcan Gas Company in Austin. Hinchcliffe said Dang was a "filthy little fucking chink", followed with a series of Asian stereotypes in a mock Chinese accent, and lashed out at audience members who laughed at Dang's jokes, branding them as "race traitors". The video was later shown on Twitter, went viral and received criticism.[25] As a result, Hinchcliffe was dropped by his agency WME and removed from shows scheduled with Joe Rogan in Austin, and the Austin nightclub Antone's announced that it would no longer be involved with Hinchcliffe or his Kill Tony live show.
On October 27, 2024, Hinchcliffe spoke at a Donald Trump campaign rally in Madison Square Garden, where he denigrated Puerto Rico as a "floating island of garbage".[33] He expressed disdain for migrants, and stated "these Latinos, they love making babies, they do. There's no pulling out. They don't do that, they come inside, just like they do to our country",[34] and invoked several racist stereotypes. Hinchcliffe made remarks about carving watermelons with Black people and Palestinians throwing rocks in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, and alluded to economic antisemitism by joking that "Jews have a hard time throwing that paper."
In response to the Puerto Rico joke, Trump campaign senior advisor Danielle Alvarez said that it did not reflect the views of Trump or the campaign,[44] while Donald Trump Jr. retweeted Hinchcliffe's dismissal of criticism, in which Hinchcliffe denied he was racist and accused Walz and Ocasio-Cortez of having "no sense of humor." Hinchcliffe singled out Walz for "[taking] the time out of his 'busy schedule' to analyze a joke out of context to make it seem racist".[45] The Trump campaign distanced itself from Hinchcliffe's Puerto Rico comments.[46]

i don't blame Trump, but i do blame Trump's campaign advisors for not vetting the comedian before allowing him to speak at the rally
a little vetting would have revealed that the comedian made racial slurs against asians at a previous performance and was dropped by his agent because of it
also, joe rogan is the one who recommended the comedian to Trump, knowing the comedian's history of racial slurs
also, it wasn't just the thing he said about puerto rico, he also made a comment about blacks carving watermelons and comments about jews and palestinians at the rally last night
yes, i believe joe rogan tried to sabotage Trump's msg rally with that comedian
