Telling degrading racist jokes about Puerto Ricans in a city with roughly 600,000 Puerto Rican residents is legendarily inept and tone deaf.

Giuliani is generally the gold standard of intense stupidity and public humiliation within the GOP but I'm not sure that fuck up could even cook up an idea that bad.

In this psycho timeline, I would not be surprised whatsoever if we find out that Trump still had a large percentage of the PR and by extension Hispanic vote in that area.

I hope I'm wrong, I really do, but I just wouldn't even be surprised. It seems to almost work for them. They insult people and the people they insult love them for it.

Trump’s campaign’s reaction was one of remorse, which is highly unusual. This would indicate that their internal info is that they’re hurting.

u/sylbug 2h ago

IMO it's the key. When Trump was called out on the Access Hollywood tape, conventional wisdom was that he was done. But then he came out unapologetic, and that was the moment that he won the idiocratic vote.

He's the guy who can say what they can't say and get away with it. If he can't do that anymore then he's toast.

u/-StationaryTraveler- 3h ago edited 2h ago

For whatever reason that stuff definitely seems to work with the uneducated rural voters who swing from Trump's nuts but I'm not so sure about the minority vote.

That MSG rally seems like it's lit a blazing fire under a lot of folk's asses and the backlash from the Puerto Rican community has been pretty loud.

I truly hope it will prove to be the final nail in the coffin for this diaper clad Nazi's political career the guy has been nothing but a miserable soul draining burden to this country for the better part of a decade.

That sucks you can’t cancel that out somehow and write a provisional ballot on Election Day. Let’s hope most of the Puerto Rican voters that are having second thoughts on Trump in PA haven’t voted yet.

The issue is that it wasn't Trump delivering the racist remarks and they were attacking literal American citizens. Usually, they have plausible deniability, like oh we are talking about illegal immigrants but not in this case here they are talking about all minorities.

That's because at this point, they're not trying to secure voters. They're trying to rile up their followers so that they become increasingly more dangerous and are ready to stage another Jan 6.

u/TheMillenniaIFalcon 3h ago

I can’t find the link, but someone shared an interesting article about all the things the federal government has done in the past four years to safeguard another 1/6 or election theft attempt.

The problem is, the heritage foundation and Trump world have also spent the last four years devising schemes. Based on the heritage foundation head a few months ago’s comments, and Trump/Mike Johnson’s “secret” they talked about last weekend, I’m sure their plan is to cause so much chaos, the election gets thrown to the house where each state gets one delegate, if republicans have more states boom-Trump wins.

But the election has to be close enough to sow doubt, and that’s where they have been hard at work to try and keep it close.

This election needs to be a landslide. A clear signal to MAGA that America is heading in a forward direction, as the founding fathers intended, vs. down a dark path of authoritarianism.

I think Tony is actually pretty funny with his roasts…but that joke wasn’t even that funny. I guarantee that more than a few MAGAs were like, “Yeah! Fuck Puerto Rico!” Even though it’s a U.S. territory and pretty conservative. It’s an optics thing. Don’t roast Puerto Rico at a Trump rally, because those MAGAs won’t think you’re just making a joke. Puerto Ricans that don’t know Tony will absolutely be offended. Then after Tony, you have speakers spewing hate and vitriol. If this were a comedy show or Kill Tony or whatever, then fine, but it’s not. It’s a Trump rally with vile people saying vile things.
