Comedian Amy Schumer used her stand-up gig in New York City Tuesday night to mock the reported hundreds of fans who walked out on her October 17 Tampa show after the comedian skewered Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

At her concert Tuesday at New York’s Madison Square Garden, the 35-year-old Trainwreck star read aloud an open letter to those fans that booed and later walked out of her show at Tampa’s Amalie Arena earlier this week. As Breitbart News reported, about 200 audiences members booed and then bailed on the show after the comedy star tore into Trump, at one point calling him an “orange, sexual-assaulting, fake-college-starting monster.”

Schumer doubled down on the criticism during her New York City concert.

“Dearest Tampa,” Schumer began. “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.”

“After the show, I want you to know that I will go straight to a rehab facility that will teach me how to make all people happy. Both the rich, entitled white people who are gonna vote for him and the very poor people who’ve been tricked into it,” the raunchy comedian continued.

Schumer ended her screed by again calling Trump an “orange, sexual-assaulting, fake-college-starting monster.”

At her show in Tampa, Florida, Schumer threaten to have hecklers removed from the building.

“Just so you know, from now on, if you yell out, you’re going to get thrown out,” she said as the boos began to grow louder.

Schumer also went on a rant about gun control, as she recounted the incident involving a deadly shooting in Louisiana during the opening for her movie Trainwreck last year, where a gunman opened fire, killing two young women, Mayci Breaux and Jillian Johnson.

Schumer was introduced in New York by 58-year-old pop singer Madonna, who promised the audience sexual favors in exchange for their votes for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.
