Comedian Tony Hinchcliffe's joke about Puerto Rico being a 'floating pile of garbage' has sparked outrage among both Democrats and Republicans, highlighting increasing sensitivities towards offensive humor.
Florida Senator Rick Scott expressed disapproval of Hinchcliffe's joke, stating it 'bombed for a reason' and emphasizing that it was neither funny nor true, reflecting broad bipartisan condemnation.
J.D. Vance defended Hinchcliffe, arguing that getting offended by every little thing is excessive and counterproductive, and emphasized the importance of humor in American culture.
Vance highlighted a shift in his position, having recently condemned another joke by a Democratic governor as offensive, showcasing the selective outrage prevalent in contemporary political discourse.
