The fact that many Americans believe Puerto Ricans are not American baffles me!

[Im_so_Retro]

Puerto Ricans are automatically American citizens since 1917. We are not illegal aliens.

[ConfusedBoombox-vuoh]

As far as I remember Puerto Rico is american territory.

[rockymasarati]

I’m Puerto Rican I thought that shit was hilarious

That Comedian just said, What Trump wanted to say!!!

[TM-tlnt]

The question for every Republican that is interviewed is: "If your party doesn't agree with this so-called comedian, why did not one single speaker that took the stage after him condemn his words - including the guy seeking the presidency?"

Mi gente! Salgan a votar 💙💙💙 espero que vean bien quien esta con nosotros! Caminen con la frente en alto 🇵🇷 🇵🇷 🇵🇷 y dejemoslo todo en el ring!

Sitting President calls 1/2 the country garbage - comedian tells a tasteless joke ….. ummmm let’s get real

[fan.s_s]

Wait for Trump to throw the comedian under the bus and say, "I don't know this guy." I've never met him."

[minutesnippet]

MSM loves cherry picking jokes. How stupid have people gotten

[sunnyday]

Choosing this “comedian” was no accident. His previous jokes are the same. He was probably chosen because of his portfolio. The “was not vetted” lie is the real garbage island

[steveabson]

Don't put joke in the title...THAT WAS AN INSULT!!! There is a difference

[lorena]

boy america has really lower the standards for a presidental candidate and what is acceptable. this is disgusting all the stereotypes. amd those who say he is not trump what ever is said in a rally is his responsability and he is ok with it.

Context: His core message wasn't Puerto Rico (If you would watch the whole performance) it was about "Freedom of Speech is under attack." He was simply giving us an example of Freedom of speech coming from a comedian and censorship would ruin this country by making it unlawful. (He could have used other countries, oh wait...he did.)

Boricuas, on Tuesday, November 5th, time to show these people how "funny" this "joke" was!

[destinyfive]

I was honestly glad they keep showing their true colors. It allows more people who haven’t voted to see it.

[joemyles]

The dude is a comic, but he isn't wrong. Puerto Rico is a mess. The US EPA warned everyone in 2019 that by 2023, Puerto Rico's garbage dump problem would be unfixable, it's almost 2025, and the Government still hasn't helped them at all.

My fiancees parents were at the MSG rally yesterday. I'm having a tougher and tougher time remaining civil with them especially when my future father in law talks about what it means to be a good and compassionate Catholic.

[alphabrainwave]

Trump's about to throw some paper towels at that comedian because that set was a disaster.

[brianschwartz]

Oh and is Steven Miller a comedian too?
