It sure did, Maria. That's why he was invited by the RNC
Yeah, when your party's candidate for president, a former president, has this group of fascists on stage with him, and doesn't make a peep about it, it most definitely reflects GOP values.
If nine people are sitting at a table, and a Nazi sits down with them, and nobody gets up, there are now 10 Nazis at that table.
In this case, it's more appropriately "If hundreds of Nazis organize a Nazi rally to support a Nazi candidate, everyone who chooses to attend is a Nazi. Those who choose to pee in a bottle while waiting in line are double-Nazi."
Using the transitive property of Naziism, you are correct!
And any decent New Yorker knows you just piss right on the sidewalk. That’s what it’s there for!

Gay men vouching for the GOP always amazes me.
It has a Jews for Hitler vibe.

Someone finally said it! I don't think most people know who this guy is. Was shocked to see him supporting Trump, even if he is an ass.
I'm sure the attention will boost his career, even if it's negative. I've never heard of him before this.

I wasn't super shocked to see him perform at a Trump rally. We watch KT every now and then, my husbo more. He ruins his own show and I've stopped paying attention except to see if someone really funny comes up in the bucket pulls. It seemed pretty on-brand for him.
Trump did Joe Rogan podcast a few days ago, Tony opening could have been pitched then.
Useful idiot. They don't know they are not actually part of the cool kids club. When the old white men sit in the parlor discussing things..the door is closed and they laugh at these goobers. They may not come for them first..but they are on the list regardless of how much groveling they did.
Follow the money.

Had he made these jokes anywhere else - like on stage at a dive bar, like normal - I wouldn't care. But he did this set at a MAGA rally. Whether or not he was "just joking" is completely irrelevant. If I teleport back to 1933, speak at a Hitler rally and make jokes about Jews liking money, it doesn't matter what my heart contains or if I have Jewish friends or enjoy Jewish cuisine or if I don't have an anti-Semitic bone in my body. This is a package deal, not an individual comic's shitty set.
Either Tony is a genuine scumbag racist MAGA cunt, or he's just a stupid, thoughtless, imbecilic cretin who hasn't got the willpower to turn down a stage of this magnitude regardless of the ramifications. Maybe a little of both. In either case, he's a tedious tone-deaf dickhead.

You know... Part of me would totally believe that nobody even vetted him before booking or even asked to review the show he was going to do the night of the rally. Especially with the knowledge that some moron on his team booked the Four Seasons years ago without realizing that it was a landscaping company.
The rest of me knows these people are all pieces of shit and don't care.
Nah. Some nazi fuck heard his act and told Gröpenführer he's perfect for an opening act.

I'm dead. R.I.P. me.
His routine was loaded into the teleprompter. It was explicitly approved.

I've followed politics for twenty years, this absoltuly reflects GOP values.
Someone needs to remind her that the GOP died when MAGA took over. I think the history books will show this period as the change from GOP to MAGA...
What a "wonderful" time to be alive... :/
Living through this, I sometimes forget that there will be a historical view. Would the "Tea Party movement" be considered the proto-MAGA?
Absolutely. We can thank the fucking Koch brothers for that nonsense... That shit got way out of control. :/

Calling him a comedian is being overly generous.
Tony made a career out of inviting amateur comedians to the stage to make fun of them. He also made a career out of deciphering the ever changing flavor of Joe Rogan's penis.

Of course he pulls the classic "it was just a joke bro".
That said, have dropped out of the comedy world years ago, it pisses me off to see dipshits like this get to perform for thousands while my friends who killed it at the open mics with real comedy are still struggling to get any attention. That's showbiz I guess.

She said on X that it did not "reflect the GOP values", referring to the Republican Party, and noted thousands of Puerto Ricans served in the military.
They're not garbage because they served?
From "The 14 Characteristics of Facism";
#4: Supremacy of the Military
Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.
As a Canadian who has been to America on and off for decades this long predates Trump. Y'all have an unhealthy obsession with the military. You always have. To paraphrase Tim Walz, "it's fucking weird"
Florida has a pile of shit lying in the middle of it, can you guess it's name?
DeSantis?
I guess there are multiple acceptable answers to that question

When you make a joke "that's actually funny" about us Latinos, we laugh our ass of and love you. We like getting ribbed. But when your "jokes" are just offensive to us and not even funny (the most offensive part), it's not really up to you to decide if your joke was offensive and people have no sense of humor, it's up to the people you're offending.
It wasn't even a joke, it was his views thinly veiled with humor.
As Mediaite reported, Hinchcliffe, pointing to a Black man in the audience, "went with what seemed like an off-the-cuff 'joke.'"
“That’s cool," he said, "a Black guy with a thing on his head. What the hell is that, a lamp shade? Look at this guy! Oh, my goodness. Wow! I’m just kidding, that’s one of my buddies. We had a Halloween party last night. We had fun — we carved watermelons together. It was awesome!”

I could be wrong, but I think the AP Style guidelines say that the word "comedian" should be in quotes when referring to a GOP "comedian".
Maybe I am wrong, but they should say that.
Elvira surprised the leopards ate her face
Bold move to throw that insult in a city with the highest concentration of Puerto Ricans in the country (and also vote Republican).
