NEW YORK — Amy Schumer has issued a sarcastic apology days after some 200 people walked out of a Tampa, Florida, show in which she criticized Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and expressed her support for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
The comedian read a “Dear Tampa” letter during her show Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden in New York. She questioned how she could think it was “OK to spend five minutes having a peaceful conversation with someone with different views.” She also said she’s going “to a rehab facility” that will teach her “how to make all people happy.”
A Tampa Bay Times reporter who attended the weekend show estimated that about 200 attendees left after Schumer, a prominent supporter of Hillary Clinton, blasted Trump.
