President Biden criticized Donald Trump's supporters after a rally where a comic made racist remarks about Puerto Rico. He called their rhetoric "garbage" and condemned the demonization of Latinos, stating it contradicts American values. Biden's comments drew attention as they contrasted with Vice President Kamala Harris's message of unity. Harris aims to appeal to all Americans, including disaffected Republicans, while Biden's remarks were seen as divisive. Republicans, including Senator Marco Rubio, quickly responded, defending their supporters. Trump downplayed the incident, stating he was unaware of the comedian's comments. Biden urged voters to reject Trump, claiming he poses a danger to minority communities.
