Out comedian Wanda Sykes over the weekend was booed for calling President-elect Donald Trump a racist and a homophobe.
The incident occurred during the 22nd annual Comics Come Home fundraiser in Boston.
“After the election, I was going around consoling people. I was telling everybody, it's going to be okay. I am certain this is not the first time we've elected a racist, sexist, homophobic president,” Sykes told the audience. “He ain't the first one. He's just the first confirmed one.”
Instead of laughter, Sykes got booed.
“Fuck you, motherfuckers,” Sykes responded, pointing a finger at the audience. “Fuck all y'all. Fuck all y'all. Fuck you, you, you, you, you, and you. All of y'all.”
“The evidence is there. How can you say he's not racist? Grab them by the pussy? How can you say he's not sexist? How can you say he's not racist? How you can say he's not homophobic?”
Sykes went on to finish her set. As she exited the stage, the booing returned and Sykes flipped the crowd the middle finger.
