A little more than a week before the presidential elections in the United States, Donald Trump organized a meeting at Madison Square Garden in New York. This rally, scheduled for November 5, was marked by controversial speeches from certain speakers.
Actor Tony Hinchcliffe gave a speech that drew heavy criticism. He compared the Democratic Party to “P. Diddy party” and dropped Puerto Rico to a “floating garbage island”. These comments did not provoke hostile reactions, both among Democrats and Republicans.
In other controversial statements, former Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson attacked Kamala Harris as a “low IQ Californian”. Similarly, David Rem used extreme language to describe the Democratic candidate, calling her the “antichrist”.
The feeling caused by what Hinchcliffe said was not limited to the Democratic camp. Republican Senator Rick Scott of Florida, a state with a large Puerto Rican diaspora, said that “Puerto Ricans are wonderful people” and that the “joke” was in poor taste and inaccurate.
Faced with criticism, Hinchcliffe responded on social media, saying the comment had been misinterpreted. He tried to put his views into perspective by declaring his love for Puerto Rico and emphasizing that he spent his holidays there.
Despite these controversies, Donald Trump’s rally in New York drew a crowd of more than 22,000 people, demonstrating his lasting influence even in a traditional Democratic stronghold.
