Biden clarifies 'garbage' remark about Trump supporters after backlash

President Joe Biden faced backlash after calling supporters of former President Donald Trump "garbage" during a discussion about a comedian's offensive remarks at a Trump rally. Critics, especially from the Republican Party, compared Biden's comments to Hillary Clinton's "deplorables" remark from 2016. In response, Biden clarified that he was referring to the hateful rhetoric about Puerto Rico, not to all Americans. He emphasized his commitment to inclusivity and respect for Puerto Ricans, stating their contributions to the nation. Trump distanced himself from the comedian's comments, claiming he did not know who he was and did not support "nasty jokes" about Americans. The controversy arises just days before the November 5 presidential elections.
