Biden's 'garbage' comment sparks backlash and fuels Trump's campaign rally in Wisconsin

timesnownews.com

President Joe Biden's recent comment comparing Trump supporters to "floating garbage" has drawn significant backlash. This remark was made during a virtual event with Voto Latino, referencing a controversial joke by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe. In response, former President Donald Trump wore a garbage man’s vest and rode a trash truck at a Wisconsin rally, mocking Biden's statement. Trump's campaign has shifted focus from Hinchcliffe's joke to Biden's comments, using the incident to rally support. The White House clarified Biden's intent, emphasizing he represents all Americans. However, the situation has drawn parallels to Hillary Clinton's 2016 "basket of deplorables" remark, which also faced criticism.
