    Here’s a list from just that rally:

    Former president Donald Trump hosted a rally where speakers made numerous vulgar and racist remarks inside New York’s Madison Square Garden on Sunday.

    Speakers at the rally called Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee, “the Antichrist” and attacked Hillary Clinton, the Democratic nominee eight years ago, as a “sick son of a b****.”

    Speakers also made racist comments about Latinos and Black people, both key voting blocs in the election that is just over a week away. Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe branded Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage,” said Latinos love “making babies” and joked about “carving watermelons” with a Black friend for Halloween, while radio host Sid Rosenberg called the event “a Nazi rally.”

    Here, Newsweek rounds up some of the most shocking comments made at the rally.

    ‘Floating Island of Garbage’

    Tony Hinchcliffe, a stand-up comic, said: “I don’t know if you guys know this, but there’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. Yeah. I think it’s called Puerto Rico.”

    Trump senior adviser Danielle Alvarez told Newsweek that the “joke does not reflect the views of President Trump or the campaign.”

    ‘These Latinos, They Love Making Babies’

    “Believe it or not, people, I welcome migrants to the United States of America with open arms. And by open arms, I mean like this,” Hinchcliffe said, while waiving his hands and mouthing: “No, go back.”

    He added: “It’s wild. And these Latinos, they love making babies too, just know that. They do, they do. There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside, just like they did to our country.”

    ‘We Carved Watermelons Together’

    Hinchcliffe also pointed to a man in the audience before saying: “That’s cool, Black guy with a thing on his head. What the hell is that, a lamp shade? Look at this guy! Oh, my goodness. Wow! I’m just kidding, that’s one of my buddies. He had a Halloween party last night. We had fun, we carved watermelons together. It was awesome!”

    Harris Is ‘the Antichrist’

    “In fact, she is the devil, whoever screamed that out. She is Antichrist,” said David Rem, a sanitation worker billed as Trump’s childhood friend, although it has been reported the pair met for the first time just two weeks ago.

    Harris and ‘Pimp Handlers’

    “Kamala Harris is the least qualified candidate to ever run for any political office in American history,” businessman Grant Cardone told the crowd.

    “She makes her boss look competent. She’s a fake. I’m not here to invalidate her. She’s a fake, a fraud. She’s a pretender. Her and her pimp handlers will destroy our country. They will.”

    ‘Nazi rally’

    “I just got back from Israel about two weeks ago. They love Trump in Israel. Just you know, they love him,” radio personality Sid Rosenberg said.

    “I get back and they go, ‘Sid, you want to speak at this MSG thing?’ I go, ‘Sure—out of character for me to speak at a Nazi rally. I was just in Israel.’ But I took the gig.”

    ‘Sick Son of a B****’

    “She is some sick b******, that Hillary Clinton, huh?” Rosenberg said. “What a sick son of a b****. The whole f****** party. A bunch of degenerates. Lowlives, Jew-haters, and lowlives. Every one of 'em. Every one of 'em.”

        Man i may have to nominate him for the noble prize if Trump loses. Man may have single handedly saved the democracy.

        If hes smart his come back tour will be titled ‘your welcome’ and it’ll riff on just white people.
