Two hours before Donald Trump was set to take the stage at Madison Square Garden in New York City, right-wing comedian Tony Hinchcliffe warmed up the crowd with a shockingly racist performance.
“Where are my proud Latinos at tonight?” Hinchcliffe asked the packed arena, eliciting scattered loud cheers. “You guys see what I mean? [The border’s] wide open. There’s so many of them.”
“These Latinos, they love making babies, too,” he added. “There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside just like they did to our country.”
The crowd groaned and cheered as Hinchcliffe continued, saying, “Republicans are the party with a good sense of humor.”
Yeah, he got famous after that roast I think. Now he has a show called Kill Tony that is based at Rogan’s Austin club. People who like that group of comics think he’s good. I haven’t listened to his show myself.
Not that it matters much, but Kill Tony has been around since 2013 according to the asshole’s Wikipedia page.
Oh wow I hadn’t heard of him until a lot more recently than that. Maybe just when he moved his show to Rogan’s club is what I was thinking was the start of Kill Tony.
Correct he originally did it in the belly room at the comedy store. He also was the subject of much scrutiny when he said some comments that were racist against Asians a few years back
Some decent comics pop up on Kill Tony on occasion, but, every time I’ve watched it, Tony himself has been deeply unfunny.
I didn’t know much about him beyond that other than the association with Rogan, but this… does not surprise me in the least.
Yeah, I had no idea that he was a right-wing comedian and now I feel weirdly guilty for liking some of the other stuff I have seen from kill Tony clips.
Kill Tony definitely has some conservative undertones. It’s not political, per se, but I’d wager 90% of its audience is conservative dudes.
