Hahaha the one that said black people don't know how to use a computer and go on the internet ?

What an hypocrites 🙄

[RustyShakelford-mlug]

Isn't this the same woman that just offended a bunch of Catholics? Yes. Yes it is.

[caskade]

Oh shut up Kathy. You said black people can’t use computers.

[lindacurtis]

Puerto Rico really does have a landfill crisis. Bring awareness to it and maybe someone will help them clean it up.

[UltraJamie]

I came here to read the comments. You can tell America is done with these whiners.

[dancreary]

And I'm disgusted at her comments about black kids in the bronx not knowing what a computer or the internet is. Big whoop.

[jake-pv]

The comedian's words...not Trump's...big difference.

[OriginalWhiteDevil]

Oh no! a comedian was caught making jokes! The horror!

[Timewave-Zer]

Latinos at the rally and on socials loved it… it’s the liberals who are upset 😂😂😂

[ljtowers]

I'm Puertorrican and I wasn't offended by the joke, why is she offended? Fact is Puerto Rico is a shit hole caused by polital corruptness, hyperinflation, low income job opportunities, higher cost of living compared to many states and lower income for the same job, quality of life sucks, power outtages every week, water rationing and increasing taxes. That's why I moved to the States, cause it is a shit hole.

I'm 100% Puerto Rican of Taino Indio, Spaniard, and African descent, unlike this individual who found a joke offensive. Like true New Yorkers would aay, "Getdaphukouttahere!" ¡Boricuas Por Trump '24! ☆MAGA☆ 🗽🇺🇸 🐸🇵🇷

[JeffreyHaas-vy]

Remember three months ago kh said blacks did not have the intelligence to use a computer. I wish she was speechless.

[floydlendon]

Won't change who their voting for. Heard Kamala latest accents? That's disgusting

[emilydenoble]

The hatred is coming from her. She’s disgusting.

[cubanitofuertesito]

I WAS THERE LAST NIGHT
IT WAS AMAZING
The lineup
The speeches
The energy
The roar of the crowds and the way all our melting pot city was unified standing strong together
As a New Yorker this was beautiful
It legit brought me to tears,
Thank you all for an amazing night

[THEBOXFATHER]

Listen to the whole event. He apologized for the comedian's comments. Comedy greats insult like they do during Roasts.

[RafaelSoltren]

This from the woman who said blacks don’t understand the computer…….😂😂😂😂😂 I’m 🇵🇷 and still voting for TRUMP……

[norn]

I’m offended about the state of her state which has super high taxes and horrible return for the billions taxpayers shell out

[waynenewman]

Disgusted. I agree, but why is SHE describing her own face like that?

[lauriecrause]

Sadly the cancel culture of the Democrats that whine over comedy & everything else. I was a 60yr Dem & i am over their righteousness & holier than thou attitude.
