NEW YORK — Donald Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday was supposed to be a homecoming — a celebration of the former president and the start of his closing message that he would be a president for all.
But even before Trump took the stage Sunday, that message was ringing hollow, with speakers at the rally embracing racist tropes and offensive rhetoric.
Tony Hinchcliffe, host of the show “Kill Tony,” opened the rally by calling Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage,” saying Latinos “love making babies” and claiming they “don’t pull out.”
