During Monday’s edition of The Daily Show, host Jon Stewart blasted leftist mainstream media anchors for losing their minds over jokes made by comedian and podcast host Tony Hinchcliffe during Donald Trump’s Sunday rally in New York City’s Madison Square Garden.
Hinchcliffe, known for his roasting skills and hosting the #1 live podcast in the world “Kill Tony,” referred to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage” during his time onstage as he poked fun at people from all walks of life.
MSNBC, CNN and others cried the joke was “racist,” “disgusting,” and “vile.”
Playing a video clip of MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski referring to the standup routine as “extremely vile so-called jokes,” Stewart jested, “She name-checked my comedy album from the 90s.”

Continuing, Stewart pointed out Hinchcliffe was “really just doing what he does,” before playing a video of the comic making several hilarious edgy jokes at the roast of NFL legend Tom Brady where he made fun of Jews, Nazis and blacks.
“Yes, yes of course. Terrible. Boo,” Stewart sarcastically said in response to the offensive material, adding, “There’s something wrong with me. I find that guy very funny, so I’m sorry. I don’t know what to tell ya.”
Next, Stewart took aim at Kamala Harris, saying that bringing Hinchcliffe to a rally and having him “not do roast jokes” would be “like bringing Beyoncé to a rally and not having… Oh.”
Media outlets pushed rumors that pop star Beyoncé would perform at Harris’ Houston, Texas, rally on Friday, but fans were left disappointed after the musician briefly spoke to the crowd and did not perform.
Democrats have truly become the “no fun” political party as their censorship agenda is naturally opposed to the free speech nature of comedy.
