Comic George Lopez was booed off stage at a gala for juvenile diabetes in Denver last week, over an anti-Donald Trump routine that fell flat with the crowd.
We’re told the flap began when Trump backer and Liberty Media CEO Greg Maffei donated $250,000 but requested that Lopez cool it with the anti-Trump jokes at the Carousel Ball.
An attendee at the event — where tables sold from $5,000 to $100,000 to benefit the Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes — commented on a YouTube video that “George was asked nicely to stop making Trump jokes by a man in front row [Maffei] who just donated $250K.” But “George doesn’t, continues. Gets booed.”
We’re told that Lopez responded to Maffei, “Thank you for changing my opinion on old white men, but it doesn’t change the way I feel about orange men.”

Folks are getting really fed up with off hand piss poor attitudes of stupid so called comedians....no body cares about their political views!
Just another no talented liberal filled with hate. Just imagine if liberals turned off the fake news and became educated with the truth.
This crowd obviously should have had Larry the Cable Guy. Whoever was responsible for hiring entertainment is an idiot. George Lopez is going to be George Lopez. A leopard can't change his spots.
That trash should never have been on the stage to start with. You get what you request.
he looks kinda orange too
