Dave Chappelle declares in new TMZ video that the recent reports about his taste for Trump are wrong.

Comedy GOAT Dave Chappelle has set the record straight about his political affiliation. After reports surfaced that Chappelle's new stand-up routine slammed Hillary Clinton and defended Donald Trump, the funnyman had to make himself clear: he has voted for Clinton, and he in no way is a supporter of Donald Trump.

Chappelle was approached on the street by a cameraman for TMZ, and asked to address the reports that he's a Trump supporter. Chappelle replied: "Jesus Christ, I'm not a Trump supporter. Unequivocally no. I'm not going to elaborate on it. Hell no. Just everybody vote, for whoever you wanna vote for."

A rep for Dave Chappelle also sent the following statement to Variety on the issue:

“Dave is disgusted by the tone of the election and especially by the idea that his comedy would be misconstrued to defend [Donald T]rump. His comedy show blasted both candidates ... By the way, he voted for Hillary [Clinton].”
