Trump Does Damage Control After Racist Rally

BFFR, por choose!

Over the weekend,  MAGA comedian Tony Hinchcliffe performed a racist set right through a rally for Donald Trump at Madison Sq. Backyard, right through which he referred to as Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage,” said he and his “only” Black good friend carved “watermelons” jointly for Halloween, and discussed Latinos “love making babies,” hate “pulling out” and “come within, similar to they did to our country.”

For regardless of purpose, this caused a large number of backlash for the MAGA international. (I say “for regardless of purpose” on account of — come on, y’all — Trump is additional offensive than that every time he opens the sphincter in the course of his face that he calls a mouth.) So, Trump and other Republicans had been scrambling to do harm control with more or less each week left previous than Election Day, and for Trump, that basically approach claiming to be Puerto Rico’s favorite white savior, lying about the entire nice he has completed there, and deflecting from the trouble by means of disparaging Kamala Harris.

From The Guardian:

“No individual loves our Latino community and our Puerto Rican community more than I do,” the former president discussed fairly over an hour proper right into a rally in Allentown, throughout the Lehigh Valley, which has a big Latino population.

Greater than 68,000 other people – over part of all the population – in Allentown are Hispanic or Latino, in line with US census data. Just a couple of blocks from the rally, a area had a Puerto Rican flag posted at the door.

He moreover claimed that he had completed rather a lot for Puerto Rico as president. Trump drew ridicule for tossing paper towels proper right into a crowd at the island after it was once ravaged by means of a typhoon; blocked typhoon improve; and mused about selling the island.

Trump — who basically treated Puerto Rico like it had received a Walmart toiletries sweepstake contest in accordance with its need for natural disaster assist — discussed right through his rally in Pennsylvania that he had “completed additional for Puerto Rico than any president by means of a long way — nobody close.”

“I’ll send the perfect long run for Puerto Ricans and for Hispanic Individuals. Kamala will send you poverty and crime,” he added.

He moreover lied and discussed right through an interview with Fox Information, that once Puerto Ricans see him, they supply him a “hug and a kiss.”

*sigh*

All Trump does is lie about crime, his political combatants, and his non-public history of racism, and, in this case, anti-Latino bigotry.

Trump wasn’t displaying America that “nobody loves our Latino community” like he does when he many times against this South American migrants to Hannibal Lecter and referred to as them “animals” who’re “no longer human.” He wasn’t displaying Hispanic those who “love” when he dabbled in eugenics-style medical racism by means of suggesting migrants have “bad genes” that predispose them to dedicate violent crimes. Trump lied about migrants bringing “huge infectious sickness” to the U.S. and discussed they’re “poisoning the blood” of the country. Trump lamented that the U.S. receives such a lot of migrants from South America and audibly wanted the U.S. got additional white immigrants from “excellent” European global places. He generalized Mexican migrants and rapists and drug dealers. Trump appears to be coming down with a case of bigot amnesia now that Election Day is so close and he recollects that he can’t depend at the white-and-racist vote by myself, then again we take note, and, optimistically, Latino electorate will take note at the ballot box next week. (Discover nobody is even talking about Hinchcliffe’s “watermelon” comic story, on account of anti-Blackness is so normalized in America that it slightly even registers at the political scale anymore.)

Anyway, Trump and his Trump-humpers aren’t the only ones doing harm control. In reaction to Hinchcliffe’s “comedy” set, considerably, the street about Puerto Rico being a “floating island of garbage,” President Joe Biden discussed right through an interview with VotoLatino, “The one garbage I see floating in the market’s his supporters.”

Really, that’s the part of Biden’s remarks that MAGA supporters heard because of a selectively edited Fox Information clip that enraged Trump-loving snowflakes.  A complete transcript of the interview finds that Biden actually discussed this about Puerto Ricans and the racist MAGA deplorables who disparaged them:

“They’re excellent, first charge, honorable other people. The one garbage I see floating in the market’s his supporters. His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American. It’s totally reverse to each factor we’ve completed.”

So, Biden’s complete quote suggests he was once in particular talking about Hinchcliffe and other demonstrably racist Trump supporters, then again since there’s no Media Literacy For MAGA Dumbasses magnificence for Trump supporters to take, Biden had to shed light on his remark.

“Earlier instantly I referred to the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico spewed by means of Trump’s supporter at his Madison Sq. Backyard rally as garbage—which is the only word I will be able to imagine to give an explanation for it,” Biden tweeted. “His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable. That’s all I supposed to mention. The comments at that rally don’t reflect who we’re as a country.”

Really, if Trump is elected next week, it will have to indicate that his and Hinchcliffe’s remarks totally do “reflect who we’re as a country.”

To make problems worse, the garrulous Gringo moreover spoke to journalists while in a garbage truck to try to power living the aim that Biden referred to as his supporters “garbage.”

“How do you need my garbage truck? This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden,” discussed Trump. “I actually like Puerto Rico and Puerto Rico loves me! I don’t find out about a comic book.”

Unhappy.
