Biden faces backlash from Trump supporters over comments on Puerto Rico remarks

President Joe Biden sparked backlash from Donald Trump supporters after he responded to racist remarks made at a Trump rally. Biden said, “the only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” referring to comments about Puerto Rico. Biden later clarified that he was condemning the hateful rhetoric from Trump’s supporters, not the supporters themselves. His remarks drew criticism from conservative commentators, who compared them to Hillary Clinton's "deplorables" comment in 2016. Republicans accused Biden of insulting millions of Americans, while some Democrats defended his statement as being taken out of context. The exchange has intensified discussions on social media and among political commentators.
