Marjorie Taylor Greene praises racist comedian for bringing Puerto Rico 'to the forefront'

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) praised comedian Tony Hinchcliffe after he told racist jokes at Donald Trump's Sunday Madison Square Garden rally.

In a post to X, Greene defended Hinchcliffe's comment that Puerto Rico is "a floating island of garbage."

"I was at the MSG Trump rally last night and I heard every speech in their entirety including this speech and comments about Puerto Rico," Greene said, suggesting Democrats should be more concerned about "vile things" like Pride parades or transgender rights.

"Instead Democrats are outraged at a comedian that spoke last night," she wrote. "However, a quick google search reveals severe waste management problems plaguing Puerto Rico that has also been hit by multiple devastating hurricanes in recent years."

"They don't care about Puerto Rico and neither do Democrat activists in the media as they've reported many times about the problems Puerto Rico faces."

Greene seemed thankful for Hinchcliffe's rally remarks.

"It took a comedian to force these issues to the forefront," she said. "Instead, Democrats and the complicit media are trying to cancel Tony Hinchcliffe as they continue on their communist agenda to destroy free speech instead of fixing anything."

"We must always fight against cancel culture and constantly defend free speech!" the lawmaker added.
