#TonyHinchcliffe has one unexpected ally: #JonStewart. The host of #TheDailyShow used his opening monologue to defend the controversial roast comedian, and instead put the blame for his viral remarks on the #DonaldTrump campaign for inviting him in the first place. Hinchcliffe was one of the speakers at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday. During his set, he likened Puerto Rico to a “floating island of garbage.” His remarks were instantly met with a backlash from both Republicans and Democrats, including condemntations from #AlexandriaOcasioCortez, #BadBunny, #JenniferLopez and #RickyMartin. “Now obviously in retrospect, having a roast comedian come to a political rally a week before election day and roasting a key voting demographic, probably not the best decision by the campaign politically,” Stewart said on Monday night. “But to be fair, the guy is really just doing what he does.” Link in bio for more.
