Democrats Puerto Rican Racism Hoax Falls Apart Within Hours of Launching

The Democrat Party feebly attempted to launch a new proof-of-racism hoax against the Trump campaign following the epic rally at Madison Square Garden. A roast comedian who was invited there to tell jokes made an off-color comment about the state of decay that Puerto Rico is going through. Despite a concerted media effort to portray this as racism, many Puerto Ricans in the audience at the rally laughed—because they understood better than anyone that there was an element of truth to Hinchcliffe’s joke.

Here’s Hinchcliffe’s joke, for context:

Would it surprise you to learn that the Biden-Harris Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) agrees with that joke?

Puerto Rico has been going through a garbage and landfill crisis for years. Since it’s a series of tiny islands, Puerto Rico has nowhere to send their trash. The US territory has 29 landfills scattered across the island. The EPA announced last year that 18 of the landfills would be overflowing past capacity by the end of 2023. The Biden-Harris regime didn’t do anything to help alleviate that problem, so it came true.

The neighborhood landfills in Puerto Rico now have piles of garbage in them that tower over people’s homes. Whenever it rains, trash flows out of the dump and into the streets in their neighborhoods. There’s so much trash in the landfill in the town of Contorno that toxic garbage is leaking into two potable water wells.

The Toa Alta landfill is estimated to have more than 30 million pounds of exposed trash in it. At least 4 million gallons of leachate—a foul-smelling liquid that emits from underneath any giant pile of trash—leaks out of the dump and into surrounding communities every year. A 2012 study linked the leachate to abnormal childhood development, low birth weight, leukemia, and other cancers in nearby communities.

During the Trump administration, the EPA ordered the Toa Alta landfill to be shut down because it was a public health hazard. City officials left it open and it’s still receiving trash after all these years.

People’s homes are constantly overwhelmed with mosquitoes and flies in Contorno because of all the trash. If you step outside in Contorno at night, it looks like there’s fog in the air. It’s actually toxic gas emanating from all the garbage in the dump. Contorno only had a population of about 4,700 people in its last census, but dozens of people in the tiny community are dying from cancer.

So, Puerto Rico does have a massive garbage problem—and the people who live there know it. Every community talks about it. Tony Hinchcliffe’s joke fell a little bit flat when he delivered it, but only because many people don’t understand the dire garbage crisis that Puerto Rico has.

Jon Stewart at The Daily Show—a Trump-hating liberal establishmentarian—noted that he thought Hinchcliffe’s jokes were funny because he pokes fun at everyone equally. Which is sort of the point of comedy. Stewart also noted that Hinchcliffe’s off-color joke was certainly no worse than suckering your followers into coming to a rally by promising them a fake Beyonce concert.

Democrats tried to stage a rally to protest Donald Trump’s “racism” against Puerto Ricans in Pennsylvania on Tuesday. Only two people showed up. That same day, Puerto Rican Senator Zoraida Buxo endorsed Donald Trump for president at his rally in Allentown, PA. Is it our imagination, or are the Democrats’ racism hoaxes against Donald Trump falling apart much faster these days?
