Amy Schumer upset as many as 200 fans at her show in Tampa, Florida, when she started criticizing Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump on Sunday.
Nearly halfway into her set, Schumer started talking about politics and at one point called Trump an "orange, sexual-assaulting, fake-college-starting monster." Audience members weren't too happy with her jokes, and some started booing her, while others walked out.
Schumer, 35, read an open letter with a tongue-in-cheek apology to the upset fans in Tampa while at her Madison Square Garden show two days later in New York City.
“Dearest Tampa, I’m sorry you didn’t want me — a comedian who talks about what she believes in — to mention the biggest thing going on in our country right now,” Schumer told her fans. “How did I think it was OK to spend five minutes having a peaceful conversation with someone with different views?”
Schumer thanked her fans who attended her show in Tampa and those who were in the audience at Madison Square Garden.
