Vice President Kamala Harris has distanced herself from President Joe Biden after he referred to Trump supporters as “garbage” during a video call. This comment came just before her campaign speech aimed at promoting unity among voters. Biden's remark was made in response to a controversial joke about Puerto Rico, which has angered many in the Latino community. While the White House attempted to clarify his statement, Harris emphasized her disagreement with criticizing voters based on their political choices. The incident has provided the Trump campaign with an opportunity to shift focus from its own controversies. Trump criticized Biden's comments, drawing parallels to Hillary Clinton's past remarks about his supporters.
