I stand with Puerto Ricans. That was absolutely foul.

After watching a video of Hinchcliffe's remarks, I now understand why I've never heard of him.

THIS IS NOT A JOKE WE ARE US CITIZENS FOR OVER 100 YEARS AND WE DIED FOR THIS COUNTRY AM VERY PROUND OF BEING PUERTO RICO AND US NAVY 15 YEARS THIS MAN IS VERY BAD FOR OUR PEOPLE

[driddlesd]

The only Puerto Ricans who get this offended over such a dumb joke were already voting for Kamala anyway, let’s be real.

[TomQuixoteDeLaGanja]

instead of crying for a joke cry for your thieves politicians in PR

[Ezzcare]

Trump legit October surprised himself lol

[EricFarley-ef]

Pssst, you know donald trump didn't make the joke right?

[RandyCapor]

I'm pretty sure your spin will last in my mind until I go to the Grocery Store or Pay Rent!

[skybluegarza]

omg, Trump did not say anything about Puerto Rico, it was the terrible comedian, it was a bad choice of the campaign, but Trump did not say anything.

As a puerto rican i know it was a joke people who want to take it seriously are so funny cant wait to vote for trump again and see the media predict him to winning only for australian media to come out with it first saying trump won i cant waittt just like 2016

[larryjackson]

I didn't like the "joke". However, it was NOT Trump who told the joke, and I am sure he would not have approved of it. Trump is not a racist or bigot.

[davidvaldez]

I'm Latino, and it was a joke. All this outrage makes me want to vote for Trump even more. I don't want no part of a group that can't joke. Also, Trump didn't say it. My family was better off 4 years ago. These last 4 years were awful.

[crsmade]

As a Latino … I loved the jokes -let’s be honest “there ain’t no pulling out!!” I’m coming inside.. Legit facts 😂😂😂.

[duchessmartinez]

The jokes were
But from the comedians, not from the candidates.

[richardmastadino]

Trump did not say that. Don't blame him

[respuesta]

No, "we Latinos" don't feel offended. Speak for yourself. The audacity..

[aznsenzation]

Every puerto rican friend and family member I know make racist jokes to each other all day. People are only offended when it's convenient.

[JohnnyMnmonic]

My family is from Puerto Rico, they agreed with what was said. Sure there beautiful parts of Puerto Rico, but over the last 15 years it's turned into sht.

Why doesn't your publication discuss policies? Why it's always news about what Trump said or what someone else said? Who gives a F what someone says

[jeanettecruz]

As a Latina...people get a grip. It was a joke. Don't get too sensitive & vote a clown in office, who's "FAKE accents & family history" is disrespectful

[ninjaturtlesoup]

I mean it’s true why else would they leave? 😂
