Amy Schumer has fired back at the 200 fans who walked out of her standup show in Tampa after her jab of Donald Trump as an "orange, sexual-assaulting, fake-college-starting monster."

The bubbly star of the smash movie "Trainwreck" addressed the incident in a defiant, tongue-in-cheek letter she read during her Madison Square Garden show in New York City Tuesday night, The Wrap reports.

"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 said.

"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."

Schumer also weighed in on who will win the presidential election with a profane prediction likely to further alienate Trump supporters.

"I look forward to putting this all behind us in a couple weeks when Hillary Clinton is our mother------- president!" Schumer cried out.

But she also appeared to promise to tamp down on anti-Trump remarks in future shows in this Instagram post:

 

 

During the Tampa show on Sunday night, Schumer called Trump an "orange, sexual-assaulting, fake-college-starting monster," referring to his hair and skin color, alleged mistreatment of women, and now-defunct Trump University.

She asked one Trump supporter, "Do you worry he'll be impulsive and get us in a lot of f------ trouble we can't get out of?" When Trump supporters began booing her she told them they could leave — prompting nearly 200 to do so.

Schumer, considered one of the nation's top comedians, is the second cousin once removed of Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York.
