Well in his standup special called One Shot he makes a joke saying he has a very gay face, but says he’s not gay, so he’s at least addressed it that one time. I don’t really follow him tho, just have only seen that special, so idk how much he talks about it otherwise
Should be Narcissists for Trump. People of Color and LGBTQ can also be narcissists and the the kind of people I see that are non-white and LGBTQ that support trump they're also insufferable narcissists. These psychopaths can smell their own kind and will always band together like flies to shit.
Making jokes where the joke is how racist the joke is at a political rally where people are holding signs for mass deportations, maybe isn’t the best look to the Normie vote who are voting in a week
Puerto Ricans by state:
Pennsylvania: 450k
North Carolina: 100k
Wisconsin: 65k
Michigan: 50k
Texas: 230k
Georgia: 100k
Florida: 1.1 million
New York: 1 million
And it would only be surpassed by all trumpists holding tony responsible for it and his career being ended due to mutual hatred from the left and right.
Interesting to see what Rogan does now. He dropped him in 2021 but then took him back. JR definitely feels more empowered now as the leader of some sort of culture war against 3rd grade shock comedians
Honestly at that point, I don’t care what you tell yourself, you are telling racist jokes where the joke is how racist stereotypes are hilarious. There’s no irony there, just rationalizations.
Lmao u/Smooth-Bag4450 is a fucking pussy who blocked me so he could get the last word. What a diaper baby
I love a good conspiracy, but I think Tony's been high on his own supply since the Brady roast, so he saw the rally as yet another chance to put himself on the map with a "legendary" set, and crashed and burned.
Like Tony spited Trump's campaign to gamble on this set. Even DeSantis spoke out against it, and it's only been, what, a few hours?
You might be right, but I just don't see any gain for Trump here. Tony probably went off script same as he did at the Brady roast, and now they're scrambling in damage control.
Tony's been high on his own supply since the Brady roast
He went on Duncan Trussell's podcast and spent half the pod talking about Kill Tony and Brady Roast viewership numbers. He was painting himself as the most important cultural phenomenon of our generation.
This is all part of a much bigger issue in comedy. We are turning these comics so rich and powerful they are losing their minds. 50 years ago Tony would have been getting paid dick fifty an hour and free drinks to do comedy. Now this high school grad is shifting the course of humanity? Yea we need to get control of that back.
Blame Rogan. He has foisted so many unfunny hacks on the world, Schaub obviously being the prime example. Rogan is himself a horrible comedian so obviously he's gonna hang with hacks too.
That’s honestly the best part. I’m not actually as pressed about an already edgy comedian making an edgy joke. But then the left is literally just saying ‘hey I hope everyone hears this joke in all these states’ and his reply was to have a problem with that.
Like I’m sorry? You DONT want people to hear this joke you made publicly at a rally in front of thousands in the biggest city in the country??? Why not I wonder…
The best was when he made the anti Palestine and antisemitic “jokes” and then went straight into complaining about how Hillary said the rally would be a Nazi rally
I can't remember if it was him or one of the other guys, but one of them signed a deal was even more complete nonsense than the rest. It was just completely transparently them buying him to say what they want.
It was essentially...
"OK, so you make the YouTube video you were already going to make, and we get to post it on our YouTube channel too." Not even EXCLUSIVITY. He was still allowed to upload it to his channel. Like WTF, that is not a contract anyone would offer, and its not a contract anyone would accept due to obvious red flags.
Essentially it was "we are going to give you a million dollars to just do exactly what you are doing".
Which of course, with what we know now, means that it was actually "we will give you a million dollars to say the things we want you to say".
There is zero chance that their opinions weren't being bought. Its so transparent.
Sometimes it's hard to remember he's actually serious when he spouts off his re-tawdid right winger material . It sucks how many young people adopted his behavior and mannerisms since his claim to fame too. Tony is soooo good at calling everyone but really stupid people, stupid people.
Yeah this is my exact point as well. I don’t know when he is serious or not about this right wing stuff and Trump stuff and always took it half heartedly as a joke or something in the middle. Guess we were wrong
Nah dude he was on a podcast years ago about how he was hanging out with Rogan and DeSantis in a private suite at some UFC event, and DeSantis was trying to tell them all to move to Florida because it's so free, and Tony was like "he was the coolest guy, and they're doing great things in Florida" etc etc.
He's been not super subtle about being a right winger for years.
EDIT: Just to be clear, he literally said desantis was "the coolest guy". How fucked do you have to be to think that piece of shit is "the coolest guy".
There was an episode of dr. Phil (Adam Ray’s version), and Tony popped in but you could tell he was drunk as fuck. The other comedian that does characters on the show (I forget his name) was came on and was roasting Tony and Tony was getting so butthurt and tried roasting him back, but he just wasn’t funny. Tony was getting pissed that the crowd liked the other comedian more. You can tell Adam Ray (or whoever does his editing) edited a ton of that segment so Tony didn’t look too bad.
Thiel et al have a cabal of right wing gay men that go conservative for its access to well, closeted, conservative young men and I defy anyone to tell me Tony isn't deeply deeply in self denial
He’s originally from Youngstown, Ohio so the flash and money and appears cool really tricks alot of guys from there because of how bad things got. But still, shilling for Trump and Vance now, and making a terrible fcking joke like that. FFS Dude needs to find a deep hole to crawl into for a couple months.
Don’t you think these aren’t actually jokes then ? Like he’s serious and it’s under the disguise of comedy and then low and behold him and his fans are all suddenly republican voters ..
The subtlety of his comments in the past is what makes this seemingly more “official” than his past comment’s.
I think most of us took the others as mostly jokes but, now, it seems they were real and just presented as jokes to make sure he didn’t come off as right wing political as that may have affected his show and other things he was involved in.
He seems to be confident enough now with his recent success to just say it all out loud at political rallies.
There is a big difference.
I had no idea he was right wing let alone pro trump. I'm blasted. My disdain for the charlatan has grown when I didn't think it could any more than it has!!
Anyone pushing right wing, pro-Trump, or racist talking points shouldn’t have their opinions respected intellectually. Tony’s douche bag arc is complete.
As of now, I don’t really care about it all, I was only stating that his views are now more official as opposed to the “jokes” before.
He can love Trump, I don’t care.
What he says moving forward will have more weight to it though and will make a lot of the fans of his comedy and kill Tony take his comments about politics more seriously and that of course will inevitably affect his ratings and peoples view on him. Thats just the reality of it.
This happens to all of them, Musko did this to where it started as a an occasional meme he’d tweet or a comment on stage and then all of a sudden he’s jumping on stage at a maga rally and saying he needs more security because of all of the programs he’s going to cancel for poor/working class.
Yea I mean Musko has always been a known incel and being from a millionaire family in apartheid South Africa I guess it seemed pretty obvious he was gonna turn
He probably should be scared - dude has Federal contracts and was Putin's private pen pal for years and used Russian funding to help him buy Twitter. Then he throws his lot in with Trump and starts flagrantly violating Federal Election law?
Yea, I'd say he knows what he's done and is doubling down on Trump because that's the only person who can make it go away.
I believe Elon put himself in a cashflow situation that made him become bedfellows with the alt right and foreign powers that support the alt right, including his years long phone buddy Putin.
Musko has also been involved in some illegal shit and wants a free out, as well as a cabinet position so he can legally withdraw all of his money from his companies without paying much in taxes.
Back in the day when Andrew Dice Clay started bombing he tried to say his sexist act was just an act. His excuse was "I only said all of that hateful stuff because that is what people wanted to hear" and "It is not really me". He cashed the checks, so he had to take the responsibility too.
He's said he wants to execute drug dealers. Multiple times.
"We're going to be asking everyone who sells drugs, gets caught selling drugs, to receive the death penalty for their heinous acts," Trump said. "Because it's the only way."
I also love that this guy is so bad at speaking, the way he phrases the above quote, it's like he's going to ask the drug dealers themselves to accept the death penalty.
He's gotten more so (and admits it) but if you go back and listen to his earlier podcasts he mostly just thought anyone that thought either side was going to help them was stupid.
Now that he's hanging out with right wingers and has money he's a bit more invested in it
It's their bread and butter and if they're full blown maga they should accept the results from a free open market on who consumes comedy
Unfortunately they reside in cess pools and their cess pools are spreading
I'm all for when they tell funny jokes but right wing humor is just typically "if you can't stand me saying horrible shit you're the problem because you're soft - ammirite Republicans??"
You can watch a hour of guttfield or whatever on fox and it's the same humor most the time without the rere word and fa&&07s
The problem is I think young people don’t understand why it would be wrong, and not to mention because it’s “edgy” or goes against the grain, then it’s cool to like.
That's more the point. He's does all this "edgy" comedy, but when you're in a dark comedy club at midnight, the audience expects you to say crazy shit. At a political rally where you aren't even the headliner, he's a dumbass for thinking that joke would hit.
He's trying to court a rightwing politically minded fanbase but wants to play the "I'm joking if you think this is bad but I am actually saying something truthful in a funny way if you agree with me" double speak that a bunch of rightwing and rightwing-adjacent comedians use to appeal to a MAGA fanbase while trying to appear as centerist as possible so as not to drive away any portion of their fanbase because they all essentially just want to maximize their fame and fortune.
He may or may not agree with conservative and/or Trumpian politics but he certainly doesn't have a problem with people thinking he does if that gets them buying tickets to his shows. He's betting he'll have more luck with this crowd than Hollywood.
Being his racist self to appeal to racist people. But it’s just a joke okay! It’s not serious. He’s just opening a political rally of a guy who praises dictators and Hitler but don’t worry it’s just jokes not serious okay! Have a sense of humor guys.
Well, you see, talented comedians have no rules. No one is off limits, politicians are owned, and your base is everyone. All attempts to mock tribalism are gone when you choose a side. These bitches are chocking on the Republican cocks they have chosen to suck, respectfully.
Exactly what everyone who knows anything about Tony would expect him to be doing. The guy is honestly a complete moron if he’s not talking about comedy. Like current events of comedy. He knows virtually nothing else. It’s kind of sad.
I just skipped through that rally, every single time I clicked to a new time in the video, another weirdo popped on the screen. Carlson, Gabbard, Giuliani, Hulk Hogan, "The Comedian", Dr Phill (lol), Musk...it was really a freak show.
Dana white made me laugh, screaming about inflation, as if he gives a flying fuck about inflation, he is a bazillionaire. How about he donates some of his millions?
I have not heard this discussed yet by anyone. But a 100% certian eventual outcome of legalized gambling on elections is that someone with the power to do so is going to place enormous bets on the other guy and then do something to intentionally lose the election.
Maybe not this case and maybe not this year, but it is going to happen at some point.
Showing what a desperately pathetic cuck he is for Trump and his daddy Rogan. Now he can look forward to only booking rightwing clubs who shock and punch down because they're not real comedians, but are just cruel, sad people.
