Marjorie Taylor Greene drags the LGBTQ community into Trump's Madison Square Garden debacle

Marjorie Taylor Greene

 I recently made a comment regarding Trump's Madison Square Garden debacle that the only group the comedian in the center of it didn't slur was the LGBTQ community. Well like it or not, we have now been dragged in the middle of it anyway, thanks to very far right Republican Congressional Rep Marjorie Taylor Greene and her obsession with trans people and thinking that gay men are exposing our naughty bits to kids.

From LGBTQ Nation:

Anti-LGBTQ+ Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) spewed anti-LGBTQ+ talking points to defend a comedian who made numerous racist comments at the New York City rally for Republican presidential nominee former President Donald Trump, held last Sunday.

 During his speech, comedian Tony Hinchcliffe called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage,” said Black people carve watermelons for Halloween, suggested Jews don’t like spending money, and that Latinos “love making babies” and do not “pull out.” Hinchcliffe said his critics “have no sense of humor,” and the Trump campaign said his comments about Puerto Rico “[do] not reflect the views of President Trump or the campaign.” 

 Following condemnation from Democrats and Republicans, Greene defended Hinchcliffe on X, writing, “The Democrats choose their outrage. They aren’t outraged over naked men exposing their genitals to children at Pride parades or biological men literally beating women in women’s sports or 325,000+ missing migrant children in America under Kamala Harris or Tim Walz putting tampons in boys bathrooms, actually Democrats support all of these vile things.”

“They don’t care about Puerto Rico and neither do Democrat activists in the media,” Greene added. “It took a comedian to force these issues to the forefront. Instead, Democrats and the complicit media are trying to cancel Tony Hinchcliffe as they continue on their communist agenda to destroy free speech instead of fixing anything. We must always fight against cancel culture and constantly defend free speech!

At this juncture in American politics, saying Marjorie Taylor Greene is full of shit is like saying that the sun is hot.

BUT, for those who have been missing out on this enormous scandal, below are the comments Hincliffe made (and apparently, he was one of many offensive speakers, including Trump himself.) Also, he was going to actually call Kamala Harris a "c-nt," but the Trump campaign made him take that part out.  It should spook folks to know what the Trump campaign did allow him to say.

One more thing before you view the video - in response the controversy, Trump's VP pick, J.D. Vance said that people need to stop getting offended.
