00:00Jake Paul now speaking out about Tony Hinchcliffe.
00:03And you remember Tony Hinchcliffe is the comedian
00:06who made the joke, he says joke, about Puerto Rico.
00:09Racist joke.
00:10Yes, at Donald Trump's rally
00:12in Madison Square Garden last weekend.
00:14Jake Paul is interesting here
00:16because he lives in Puerto Rico.
00:18He moved there years ago, in 2021 I believe,
00:21when he started getting serious
00:23about becoming a boxer and training for that.
00:25So he is now speaking out about Tony Hinchcliffe.
00:28He's not happy with Tony,
00:30but somebody that Tony knows,
00:34well, he is happy about that person.
00:35Start off with something that bothered me recently
00:38was Tony Hinchcliffe, a comedian who made a bad joke.
00:42Obviously he's doing his job, trying to be funny,
00:45but him talking smack about Puerto Rico was not funny.
00:48And I want to shine a light on the fact
00:50that these aren't Donald Trump's views.
00:52It was a comedian who made a bad joke.
00:54Tony, while I love most of your work,
00:56Puerto Rico is the most beautiful place on earth.
00:59And the people here are absolutely incredible.
01:01Wars, health, guns, jobs, economy, inflation,
01:05border control, freedom of speech.
01:07The list goes on and on and on
01:10with the number of problems that America currently faces.
01:13And I don't come to you to make this video
01:15to create more division.
01:16I believe love is the key to the universe
01:19and that we should all love each other
01:21more and more and more.
01:23And it saddens me that in the current political state
01:26of the world in America,
01:29people can't have opinions without outrageous backlash.
01:33You know, I, and I didn't expect it to come from Jake Paul,
01:36but I thought he made one of the most compelling cases
01:39out there for Donald Trump.
01:40It was really interesting because he goes at the top guys.
01:43He's like, I can't vote now
01:44because I am a citizen of Puerto Rico.
01:46And he says he doesn't have the ability to vote.
01:48So, you know, he is not going to be casting a vote
01:52for Donald Trump, but he laid out what I thought
01:53was a pretty compelling case.
01:55And I wouldn't have thought that was going to come
01:57from Jake Paul, but here we are.
01:59I got to ask you about this, Babcock,
02:00because look, the facts are the facts here.
02:02When Donald Trump says,
02:04talks about the enemies from within,
02:06and he's citing Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff
02:07and all these other people,
02:09talks about jailing them,
02:10sending the National Guard after them,
02:12if they, people who disagree with him.
02:15That doesn't align with what Jake Paul is talking about,
02:17that everybody needs to love each other and everything else.
02:20Well, look, here's what I think we do know.
02:22We know Donald Trump was president for four years.
02:23He could have gone after his political opponents,
02:25Hillary Clinton and so on and so forth.
02:27That didn't happen.
02:29There's one administration that right now
02:30is trying to put their political rival in prison.
02:33And that of course is the Biden-Harris administration.
02:36So I don't know.
02:37You know, I don't know hard.
02:38We've got some evidence here to go off of,
02:41and it seemed pretty clear to me.
02:42I think the issue is, do you take somebody at their word?
02:45It's hard to hear someone talking about love
02:47and you want love and you want unity,
02:49but that's not what you're hearing from the guy
02:51you're supporting, but whatever.
