Aubrey Plaza criticized comedian Tony Hinchcliffe for his derogatory comments about Puerto Rico at a recent Trump rally. Hinchcliffe referred to Puerto Rico as a “floating island of garbage,” prompting Plaza to respond, “go fuck yourself,” highlighting her family's ties to the island. Plaza's remarks came during the WSJ Magazine Innovator Awards on October 29. She expressed concern over Hinchcliffe's joke, stating her grandmother would have found it offensive. Singer Luis Fonsi also condemned Hinchcliffe's comments, emphasizing the need for respect towards Puerto Ricans. The Trump campaign has distanced itself from Hinchcliffe's remarks.
