Donald Trump described his recent rally in New York, which included crude and racist remarks from speakers, as an “absolute lovefest.” He expressed pride in the event, despite calls from some allies to apologize for the comments made. Trump's campaign distanced itself from specific remarks but did not condemn the overall tone of the rally. He acknowledged that comedian Tony Hinchcliffe's joke about Puerto Rico was inappropriate but did not denounce it directly. The fallout from the rally has raised concerns among some Republican allies about its impact on voters, particularly Puerto Ricans in key swing states. While some expressed outrage, others defended Trump, saying they found humor in the comments.
