Famed comedian Wanda Sykes gave the TD Garden crowd the middle finger as she walked off the stage last night after her rant about President-elect Donald Trump was met by a chorus of boos from some of the thousands who turned out for the 22nd annual Comics Come Home fundraiser.

Sykes, who was the fifth comic to take the stage at the benefit for The Cam Neely Foundation for Cancer Care, was roundly booed by many of those in attendance after the lesbian comic blasted the newly elected president for being a racist and a homophobe.

“I am certain this is not the first time we’ve elected a racist, sexist, homophobic president,” she said.

Although other comics, including Worcester native Denis Leary, waded into politics during their sets — Danvers’ own Nick DiPaolo was booed during his — it seemed the crowd reacted far more harshly to Sykes’ take on Trump and the California comedian was quick to fire back.

“(Expletive) you, (expletive) you, (expletive) you,” Sykes said to the audience members who were booing her set at the country’s longest-running comedy fundraiser.

The booing began about five minutes into Sykes’ performance and she stayed on stage to finish her set, also delivering jokes on topics outside of the political realm.

But before she left the stage, Sykes flipped the three-quarters capacity crowd the finger when the boo-birds came back out to send her off the stage.

Has anyone taken the time to present the evidence that Trump is racist, sexist, and homophobic?

Nah, the stereotype fits into the media narrative.

Why in Hades did that female hijack a charity event for the sake of her own splenetic blather?

And she was too narcissistic to reflect on the fact that supposedly racist & misogynistic Trump voters came out to see a black female (alleged) comedian? At a charity event?

Wanda Sykes is a comedian?

She must self-identify like Rachel Dolezal in blackface, because that bitch ain't funny.

I saw it on TV news and some signs carried last week by flag burners - so it must be true!

I also saw it repeated numerous times by Dems on this week's Sunday morning news shows. (Which I found quite amusing.)

Welcome to CC! Are you the same GG as the one at DI?

I had some serious gloating to do and Skinner took it down. Wah.

IMO, these celebrities need to be reminded, very bluntly, to shut up and sing (or be funny, or act, etc.). If I went to a Spyro Gyra or Big Bad Voodoo Daddy concert in 2013 and heard them rip on BHO, I would have been upset. Because I don't buy concert tickets to hear a political rant.

All liberals believe the kind of people who supported Trump do not like charity. In her mind she probably thought the crowd at the charity event would love her comments.

I have never found her humor funny and I am sick and tired of the jokes about whites.

Good point! I didn't think of Libs' & Progs' stereotype-infested echo-chamber mentality.

When in fact Trump supporters are far more likely to be charitable.  :-)

She's an ultra- liberal celebrity. Ultra- liberal celebrities hijack charity events to jam their demented views down the public's throats all the time. Remember Kanye West's infamous "George Bush does not care about black people" outburst at a Katrina fundraiser?
Btw, I never liked Sykes. She has an obnoxious voice, an even more obnoxious personality, and all the comedic talent of a month- old breath mint. This little event helps reveal that she also clearly has no sense of class or basic decency.

I dunno ... Sykes ripped of her audience by going off on a political rant, and the crowd booed her off the stage. Seems reasonably fair to me.
