This guy Tony is known mainly for his roasts writing and his edgy comic show. When you tell a racist joke at a rally for a known racist fascist, it’s going to be taken badly. And it didn’t land at the rally full of racists! It bombed as it was a line too far.
Ironically, this guy’s show has on an extremely diverse range of comics. People with physical disabilities, cerebral palsy, Down’s syndrome, gays, lesbians, trans, and people of all sorts of ethnic backgrounds. But they also regularly push the envelope on what would be considered good taste, punching down, etc. He comes off as a POS on his show, but partly that’s the schtick. Outside the show, it doesn’t work. He’s just an asshole. At a rally full of racists - a racist asshole.
That whole rally was fucked. They played Elvis singing Dixie before a black speaker. They had Tucker Carlson, Stephen Miller, and other goons spouting literal Nazi rhetoric. It was all sick.

The views of the various people we vetted and invited to speak at this event have nothing to do with us! Gosh, we had no idea that speaker after speaker would say outrageously racist stuff (which we may or may not be pleased with)!

You misspelled racist shit.
That guy and all the bigoted “comedians” who hide their bullying shit under the guise of “just making a joke” can all fuck right off. I’m so sick of that being their “excuse”… they just never got past being the school bully and want to continue being it… they are not funny or entertaining, except to other bullies.
Let’s see if people finally believe them and take them seriously and vote their asses out of office.
