Trump Dismisses Backlash Over Comedian's Puerto Rico Joke at MSG Rally

In an interview with Sean Hannity, Trump claims ignorance of the comedian's remarks and denies any campaign involvement.

Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe made controversial remarks about Puerto Rico at a Trump rally, calling it a 'floating island of garbage.'
Trump stated he was unaware of Hinchcliffe and distanced himself from the comments, saying the comedian was not affiliated with his campaign.
The remarks sparked criticism from both Democrats and Republicans, with GOP members attempting to distance themselves from the controversy.
President Biden criticized the rally's rhetoric, leading to further political tensions and clarification from the White House.
Fox News's Greg Gutfeld defended the joke as 'educational,' while acknowledging the backlash from Hispanic communities.
