Comedian roasted for MSG rally jokes is no racist — Joe Biden is much further out of line

Sunday’s Madison Square Garden rally, was political malpractice.Hinchcliffe’s now infamous set included a joke where he called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage.” And, well, it’s not good to offend an entire demographic of voters you’re still trying to woo.The Trump camp distanced themselves from the line and a report in the Bulwark said the bit was ad libbed.Hey, they were able to catch in the script a joke where Hinchcliffe called Kamala Harris the c-word, which a staffer asked him to remove.As the right did damage control amidst the uproar, President Biden apparently said “hold my ice cream cone” and decided to defend Puerto Rico’s honor — by calling Trump “supporters” garbage.The gaffe was reminiscent of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 “basket of deplorables” comment and also brought to mind Obama’s alleged assessment of his Veep’s instincts, “Never underestimate Joe’s ability to f–k things up.”Bumbling Joe, who is an actual politician and not a comedian, is now doing clean up duty.

With a major assist from the media who were outraged by Hinchcliffe just days ago.In the midst of this stinky mess remains a collective pearl clutching about the initial jokes (which was a reference to PR’s very real garbage problem).

Hinchcliffe’s set was not evidence that Trump is a racist.Having Hinchcliffe on the mic, while unsavvy and imprudent did, however, show someone in the former president’s camp has impeccable taste in comedy.Hinchcliffe is a take no prisoners roast comedian: an equal opportunity offender who deploys vicious put downs with the accuracy of a sniper.
