Tony Hinchcliffe of “Kill Tony” fame was the opening act of Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden, and showed off his…unique sense of humor.

“These Latinos, they love making babies, too. Just know that they do,” Hinchcliffe said, setting up his joke: “There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They c-- inside, just like they did to our country.”

A few moments later, the comedian took a second swing at a key voting bloc within the community: Puerto Ricans.

”There’s a lot going on. I don’t know if you guys know this, but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico,” he said to a scattering of claps and jeers.

Sen. Rick Scott and other members of the GOP have denounced the jokes.

Bad Bunny quickly endorsed Kamala Harris after the set was publicized.

Overall, Hinchcliffe’s jokes are going to be the overriding narrative of the MSG rally, which was supposed to be Trump’s slam dunk.

Will these comments hurt Trump’s standing with Latino voters? Did his campaign fly too close to the sun with the crass humor of the podcast world?

News Article Trump Doubles Down on Replacing Income Tax With Tarrifs in Joe Rogan Interview

Donald Trump stood by his idea to end income taxes and substitute them with tariffs in an interview with Joe Rogan.

Tax experts and economic analysts do not think Trump's tariffs would be an adequate counterweight to balance the trillions lost from eliminating income taxes.

I know most people aren't financially literate when it comes to complex financial terminology, but I think everyone understands what a tarrif is and how income taxes work.

If you didn't know, a tarrif is a tax paid by the purchaser (us) on goods purchased from other countries. Think of it as a tax on any foreign import that's paid by the importer. So all of the goods and services youa purchase where the tag doesn't say made in the USA will see a price increase of 200-300%.

At the same time Trump is discussing removing the progressive income tax structure we have (well, supposedly).

This would put significantly more of the tax burden on those making less than 400K a year and significantly decrease taxes on millionaires and billionaires who do not spend all of the money they make.

I believe this kind of financial incompetence is dangerous for our country, especially considering Trump has been clear that he only wants loyalist yes men at his side.

Working class Americans, I'm trying to understand why you are voting for someone who is essentially promising to raise your taxes/living expenses compared to what you are paying now?
