Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe was blasted after making a series of offensive jokes at a rally for Donald Trump during the weekend.

Sunday evening, the 40-year-old comedian came out on stage at Madison Square Garden to approve the Candidate for the presidential election of the Republicand made a series of racist jokes.

He took aim at Latinos, the island of Puerto Rico, black people and migrants as he stood at the podium.

“I welcome migrants in the UNITED STATES of America with open arms. And by open arms I mean like this,” he said before making a “go away” gesture with his hands.

“These Latinos also love making babies. Just know that they do,” he later added in a crude joke. “There is no withdrawal possible. They don’t do that. They went inside, just like they did in our country.

The author of many Comedy Central roasts continued: “I don’t know if you know this, but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico.

He wrote: “It’s crazy that a vice presidential candidate would take the time out of his ‘busy schedule’ to analyze a joke taken out of context to make it seem racist.”

“I love Puerto Rico and my vacations there. I made fun of everyone…watch the whole set. I’m a comedian Tim…might be time to change my tampon.’
