A number of fans didn’t want to go too deep into the mind of Amy Schumer during the comedian’s show at the Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida Sunday night as an estimated 200 fans walked out after Schumer made some unflattering statements about Donald Trump, the Tampa Bay Times reports.
A vocal supporter of Hillary Clinton, Schumer’s performance turned political when she referred to Trump, among other things, as an “orange, sexual-assaulting, fake-college-starting monster.” While it’s unclear if the bees in the Trump supporters’ bonnets were stirring because of the “orange,” “sexual-assaulting,” or “fake-college-starting monster” statements, loud booing from what the paper described as a “small minority of the arena crowd” began when Schumer commenced talking about gun control and politics.
The Amalie Arena hosted the 2012 Republican National Convention.
After discussing how she didn’t understand how people could support the GOP nominee, Schumer invited a Trump supporter up on stage to explain their affection for the presidential nominee. One man took the actress up on her offer, explaining he was voting for Trump because he doesn’t trust Clinton. When this statement elicited boos, Schumer invited them to leave while asking security to remove anyone booing.
Later, when discussing the recent barrage of allegations of sexual impropriety against the Republican candidate, Schumer asked anyone who had been a victim of sexual assault to stand, which led to dozens of individuals standing up. Schumer recently revealed that she has been the victim of sexual assault in her new book, The Girl With the Lower Back Tattoo.
