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.”

      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
