I don't care for hinchcliff, but he is no fool and he is a sharp comedian. These were low level hack purposefully racist jokes. Most don't know that he wrote for the WWE, he knows this audience extremely well. I honestly think he's playing both sides here. If Trump loses he will have helped by making maga look bad and racist etc as is currently happening and he'll come out with a revelation that it was all an act. And he will have been paid to do it. If Trump wins he gets to be king racist comic and continues his colbert-esque act for them. His humor is specifically edgy and racial but far more clever than what he did for this rally. That's my theory anyway.
