To this point:
Quote:That was like Thanksgiving dinner with that one great uncle who makes off-color jokes:
With just more than a week until Election Day, former President Trump held a rally in deep blue New York City, an area he’s highly unlikely to ever win. The rally has been getting a lot of attention, but not from the main act himself.
Trump loyalists spewed racist and vulgar remarks during the warm-up, hurling insults at Puerto Rico, Vice President Harris, Palestinians and more.
For example:
Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who goes by Kill Tony, made derogatory remarks about Puerto Rico: “There’s a lot going on. Like 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.” ^This line has angered a lot of people on both sides of the aisle.
Hinchliffe also made vulgar comments about Latinos “making babies”: 📹 Watch the clip
Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson insulted Harris’s heritage: “It’s gonna be pretty hard [for Democrats] … to look in the eye to America with a straight face … and say, ‘You know what? Kamala Harris, she got 85 million votes because she’s just so impressive. As the first Samoan-Malaysian low-IQ former California prosecutor ever to be elected president,’” Carlson said sarcastically. 📹 Watch Carlson’s remarks
Former Trump White House aide Stephen Miller on America: “America is for Americans and Americans only.”
From New York City radio host Sid Rosenberg: “She is some sick b——, that Hillary Clinton. What a sick son of a b—-. The whole f—ing party. A bunch of degenerates. Jew-haters and low lives, every one of them.” 📹 Watch the clip
💡 Why this matters: It was an interesting choice to prioritize New York City over a battleground in the final week of the dead-even campaign. But what’s more interesting is the content of the rally. It wasn’t directed at undecided, independent, battleground voters. Instead, it was red meat for his most loyal supporters filled with controversial remarks.

The Trump campaign is in part disavowing some of the shit said in MSG yesterday.
